Did she look like you? I feel like she looked like you.
KILL TONY
#711 - ANDREW SCHULZ + DERIC POSTON
Hell yeah. I think we as a people should research cucks. We need to look into them a little more. Nobody, that's weird to me. I think about it a lot. I have a theory on why people do cuck shit. I have an idea in my mind.
KILL TONY
#711 - ANDREW SCHULZ + DERIC POSTON
I think it start like real young, like somebody like seven years old and it's like a thunderstorm outside and you don't sleep in your mom's room no more, but you scared, you scared. So you got to go in your mom's room because there's a thunderstorm outside. You take your little teddy bear and your little blanket and you walk into your mom's room and she end up just getting donkey fucked.
KILL TONY
#711 - ANDREW SCHULZ + DERIC POSTON
Like, I mean, just head on foot, just she getting, just demolished in your face. That's so seven. Seven, she just getting fucked, like, hard. Like, hard as fuck, man. And you go to her, who is this man? Why is she doing this? And why is my dick hard? And that's how it would get started, right? And I really think it's usually just white people. That's y'all's shit, really.
KILL TONY
#711 - ANDREW SCHULZ + DERIC POSTON
Y'all, you clapping, you scare me for that. That's terrifying. You're like, yeah, I like shit like that, nigga, hell yeah. The scariest part about the cuck shit to me as a black man is like, I'm who y'all looking for, which is scary. Really, like I do shows all the time and people always come up to me like, hey, hey, she look good to you? You wanna fuck her? And I go, not for free.

KILL TONY
#711 - ANDREW SCHULZ + DERIC POSTON
Oh, he going missing for a couple hours. Somebody getting fucked. Some poor white lady getting fucked, dog. I told you that story when we was in Utah, we had this porn star, OnlyFans lady, and she was in the green room just showing her pussy. And my dad was like, this is the best day ever. I'm so excited for this.
KILL TONY
#711 - ANDREW SCHULZ + DERIC POSTON
Cam, what else is going on? Man, other day I went to Canada. Canada was cool. Okay. Hell yeah, I seen a red-dyed Indian nigga for the first time. Oh, wow. Yeah, never seen one before in person. Was that because you were pointing your Glock at him? Tony, that was good. That was good as hell.
KILL TONY
#711 - ANDREW SCHULZ + DERIC POSTON
I've seen the one, the regular niggas. I've seen them niggas. We got a sign. I've seen niggas before. But I've never seen the goddamn... With the actual red dot. I've never seen a duke before.
KILL TONY
#711 - ANDREW SCHULZ + DERIC POSTON
Oh, wow. I was frolicking and shit, nigga. I bet. I bet. Yeah, frolicking. Frolick worthy. Yes. Yeah, yeah. It's good. Snow is nice. I like snow. You got to get gloves for that shit, because it's cold. OK. Real, real shit. You know that. Was it a man or a woman that had the red dot? Huh?
KILL TONY
#711 - ANDREW SCHULZ + DERIC POSTON
Yeah. Say you swear to God, dog. Swear to God. I don't think his family would be cool with that, dog. Where'd you meet? Where'd you meet? Something tells me they wouldn't be cool with that shit at all, dog. Where'd you meet this guy? I was in Canada, nigga.
KILL TONY
#711 - ANDREW SCHULZ + DERIC POSTON
It's a big country. Not to me, nigga. I've only been to two places, Vancouver and Edmonton. That's all it is to me right now. I was in Vancouver, though. Right, but were you at a store? Were you bowling?
KILL TONY
#711 - ANDREW SCHULZ + DERIC POSTON
You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? Stop. Stop. You get it.
KILL TONY
#711 - ANDREW SCHULZ + DERIC POSTON
Nah, he just, you know what I'm saying? 1762, that's what he said.
KILL TONY
#711 - ANDREW SCHULZ + DERIC POSTON
The price of what I want, yeah. I mean, did you swipe it over his dot? I should have did that, dog. That would have been a hate crime, dude. Yep. Probably.
KILL TONY
#711 - ANDREW SCHULZ + DERIC POSTON
Yeah. Did you pet the cat? Did you talk to the cat? I pet both of them. Okay. Yeah. All right. Yep.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And he gets a hold of one of the cubs and kills it. And then she scares him off of the cub that he killed. And then she eats the cub. She eats her own cup. Once it's dead, she's like, I'll just eat it. Why do you think? Because it's just food? It's just food. Once it's dead, it's just food. Bro. That's fucking insane. You think $2 an hour is hard life. Bears are shitting on ghettos.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Like, you think it's hard? You think it's hard? I go outside every day thinking I'm going to get eaten. Dealing with the boss bear. Yeah. Well, that's what happens also when you have, that's how nature balances out ecosystems, right? Because if there's no natural predators for bears. They have to eat themselves. Because nothing can eat a grizzly bear. So they have to eat each other.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
That's the only way they keep the populations down. To keep it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So when cubs are born, there's two things that happen. One, well, there's three things. One, the male thinks of them as food. So he wants to kill them for food. Like they hunt them. They go into the dens. When the males come out of hibernation early, they go into dens to look for cubs to eat them. They know they do that for food. Two, they try to bring the female into estrus again.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So if they can kill the cubs, then the female will want to breed so she can have more cubs. And so it'll get the female so that she'll want to breed again. And then three is competition. They look at those cubs as potential future competition. So it's all these horrible ways. It's this beautiful nature.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Nature is a fucking bloodbath. It's a... It's a bloodbath. Even the grass is screaming. They found out that grass screams now. Plants make noise when you're eating them. They just can't move.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, that's that dumb argument that I had with Neil deGrasse Tyson. I'm like, what are you saying?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
That's interesting in itself. We're so different than everything else here. If you're going to study anything anywhere in the fucking universe, of course you would study human beings. If you're going to study anything, you would go, what is this wild, crazy, territorial primate with nuclear weapons and cell phone addictions? What is this motherfucker up to? And they're soft.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
We can easily be killed. Easily. And we're still top dog. And they might have made us. They might have engineered us, son. That's a real, on the table, less than 0% or more than 0% possibility. We might have been genetically engineered. It's a real possibility. It's a real possibility when you look at other primates and us, like, what happened here? What happened here?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So it's stand-up without the pauses that you would require if an audience was laughing. So it's more rapid-paced. Like, he thought this through, dude. This is like a genius thing. Those things turn your phone sideways? Yes, man. So that's what you used to have to do back in the day, kids. Back five years ago. Five years ago. All you fucking 15-year-olds when you were 10, you didn't know about this.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
How are our cousins still roaming around barefoot, covered in hair?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You know? Swinging from trees, eating bananas. And we are, somehow or another, flying rockets with an all-chick crew. And then land it with parachutes. Like, what? Yeah. Why are we so different? And why do we keep seeing UFOs? Like, what the fuck is going on here?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, we're in charge of those bitch-ass water balloons. They're basically blood balloons, sticks holding it all together. Compared to things that are fucking built like trucks. Yeah, like a rhino. Like how the fuck is a rhino in danger for its stupid horn when our bitch asses are the ones killing the rhino? Yeah, dude. That doesn't make any sense. We're not even eating them.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Do you see what they're doing now to rhinos to prevent this? They dart them and saw their horns off first so that no one wants to kill them. How fucked up is that?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
If they want to fight. Yeah, if they want to fight other rhinos and fight off lions and shit like that. Yeah, they need that horn. I mean, there's a reason why they have it. Yeah. Yeah, they evolved to have this giant fucking weapon in the middle of their face.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You ever see him launch lines into the air? Yeah, fucking launch those motherfuckers in the air. Like, fuck you, bro. Try getting through this. But yeah, to cut that off, what does that do to the rhino?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Okay. It lives fine, but it just doesn't have a weapon anymore. But it also is not attractive to the main monster, which is humans. And humans that just wanted to drink a tea to get your dick hard. Just get rocked up. Whoa. Bricked. It don't even work, I don't think. Does it work? I don't know. There's rhino horn. It might be one of them ancient Chinese secrets. It's legit.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Does rhino horn get your dick hard? No evidence. How dare you?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I don't know if that's real. Oh, that's not the same thing. Is that not the same thing? That's those red band pills. No.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Oh, yeah. No, no, no, no, no. That's like rhino 2000, those gas station boner pills. Yeah, those are legit. Sometimes. But, I mean, you want to talk about taking a chance on your life. Like, who knows what's in there? Who knows what's in there? That was another thing I was reading about, like, Chinese illegal vapes. Like, bootleg vapes that have entered into this country.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Like, pretending to be, like, legitimate companies that are selling vapes. And they're just using fucking gutter oil and who knows what the fuck's inside of those things. People are getting sick from them. Yeah. No one gives a fuck about you, man. Not in most of the world. Most of the world is trying to get them dollars. Get them dollars and fuck the world. Oh, fuck that, man.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
All right, Derek, tell everybody about your special. We talked this whole time. We didn't tell anybody about your special.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
But when you turn your phone sideways, and then it would play out in wide format. And he would kind of do stand-up with images and with punchlines, and it was fucking great. But it was at way faster pace than he does stand-up on stage. It was like the punchlines, and then you listen to that. And I'm like, oh, my God, he figured it out.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
He's headlining La Jolla this weekend with you, right?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I'm very happy for you, brother. I'm very happy. I've been watching you grow since you came to Austin. It's been beautiful. It's been amazing. And knowing you from the comedy store, you're one of the first guys to take the chance coming out here. We all just said, fuck it. Yeah, dog. Wound up together, and we were right.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's old school days. Yeah, Joey's here tonight. Very, very excited. And, you know, Joey's performing here. Moon Tower's in town. Todd Glass was there last night. That was great. It's been Joe DeRosa moved here now, too. He's the fucking best. I love him, man. We are having so much fun, man. We're having so much fun. It's the best, dude. I appreciate you, brother. I appreciate you, Joe.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Thank you so much for this, man. Thank you. My pleasure. Everybody, go check it out. It's on YouTube right now. Derek Poston on Instagram. Yes, sir. Everywhere else.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
He figured out how to make really compelling stand-up for someone who's not there.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Exactly. Exactly. It's genius. Because that was an example of someone innovating in a crisis. There's a situation that happened. You're forced to... During the pandemic, some people just curled up in a shell and decided... I'm not leaving my house anymore. And then some people are like, okay, what can we do? What can we do?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
We're doing it next week, next Thursday. Oh, next week. Next Thursday, yeah. Going back. And then we're doing the belly room, too. Headlining the belly room the next night. Nice. Fucking La Jolla is one of the best rooms in the world. Yeah. That La Jolla room is fire. If you get it crushing in there, it's a box.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Okay, I'm going to figure out how to do stand-up in this little video format. Turn your phone sideways. And then everybody started sharing them. And then Netflix does a thing, you know, Andrew Schultz Saves America.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Which I don't think they should get their money back because he didn't save America. How dare you?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Oh, he does it all the time. And he also, you know, because his stuff is local and a lot of it, like these opening bits that he comes up with, you kind of have to get them out now. Yeah. Right? So he can just release them on like the fucking, when he did the P. Diddy thing when he went to L.A. And that's just at P. Diddy's house? Brother. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
How did he come up with this? We were just hanging with him. That's so funny. He's in the groove, you know?

Like we were talking about like Attell, like Theo.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's a kill box. And he's cheating with his hair. He's cheating. He's cheating. I won't say the jokes, but these hair jokes are just too good. Well, people lose their mind. They lose their mind. It's unfortunate because they think he looks way better with his head shaved. He's a good-looking guy. He's a good-looking guy.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Like when someone gets in the groove of who they are. Like Tony is on Kill Tony. Perfect example. He's locked in. He's in the groove. He's been doing it so long. He knows when to dance and when to pause.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
If you can find something like that to do in your life, you'll have a much better life than if you just get a job. And I know that's not for, not everybody can, but if you can, you definitely should. Yeah, dude. Yeah, you definitely should do that.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah. It's a great job, man. We're so fucking lucky. Yeah, dude. We're so lucky.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
No, no, no, no. That happens, man. Sometimes you think you came up with it, but somebody else did, and you heard it, and you forgot. That can definitely, especially if it's a subject that you never cover, and time has passed. And then the subject comes up, like something comes up and you're like, it almost like David tells the best at that.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
He'll call you up because you have to check sometimes like, hey, have you heard this? You know, like you have like, he's the best at that. Dave does that all the time. Like you got to check every now and then. Like this one seems too easy because the memory is weird. You know, memory is weird. You ever go back to like your old neighborhood where you grew up and you're like.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
this house is way smaller than i thought it was it was all different yeah the driveway's different everything's different looks weird you know your memory's shitty it's good i mean it keeps you from picking up the wrong spider but you know it's not it's not a photographic representation of reality and that's a problem and you guys have been doing stand-up 20 years how many bits have you seen just seen too many bits yeah so you can and then you know there's parallel thinking
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
There's a lot, but you know when someone's a thief and Damon's not a thief. I always said that Damon, he might be one of the most underappreciated comics ever because when he was in his prime, you gotta realize he was like, if you're looking today, he was like Chappelle. He was in that same level of recognition as being one of the best guys alive. But then they got him with those TV shows, man.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Last Boy Scout. He was going to be a movie star. He did that big Bruce Willis movie. Bruce Willis, yeah. And it was a good movie. Yeah. And it looked like he was going to be a movie star after that. I mean, he had some great, like Blank Man, where he's a retarded superhero. Oh, my God. That was so ridiculous. Try doing that today. You couldn't do that so good?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I love when I come here and you two guys are in the gym and you're by yourselves. No one's pushing you. I love it. I love it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I don't know who. What other families are there that are big, not in comedy? What other families? Am I missing something? Am I forgetting somebody? I mean, I know In Living Color was so big. It's like them and then the Sklar brothers. There's no other families. There's nobody in the hunt.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So I was just moving to New York, to L.A. from New York then. So I was in New York at a pool hall watching it. And I remember watching Fire Marshal Bill. And I'd be like, how can you do this? How is this allowed? This show's crazy. You have to realize for 93, there was nothing. If you think about the internet today and all the crazy videos that people put together and the years of mad TV. SNL.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah. But back then? Back then, man, there was nothing like this show. This show was crazy.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
That is Pauly. Oh, my God, that is Pauly right in the corner. Oh, look at Pauly. The weave. Look at him. He's moving the head like a pigeon, bro. He's here now, too. Yeah, I know that great. Isn't that fun, hanging out with Pauly? It's like being at the store, man. It's the best.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
The show was great. But, Damon, if you want to watch something, watch I think it's The Last Stand. I think that was one of his, I think that's the name of it. I think it's The Last Dance, but it's fucking phenomenal. And it's so good, but it's also so good if you go back to that time.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Because comedy, like everything else, has evolved with all the scrutiny on it and all the different high-level people that are doing it. The comedy right now, I think, is at the highest level that I've ever seen. There's so many really great comedians.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I think in the 1980s, like if you go back, you had Kennison, you had Eddie Murphy, you had Richard Pryor, you had George Carlin, you had a bunch of really good guys, Jerry Seinfeld. But that many after that, you know, wasn't as thick, as thick with assassins. I think right now there's so many assassins out there.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Not getting in cold water for you today. I'm down to work out tomorrow if you guys want to do it. Of course. All right, let's do it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
There's more arena acts out there right now than has ever been in the history of comedy. You've got to realize arena acts started with Dice Clay. So Dice Clay starts off becoming, he becomes an arena act in like 87-ish. Late 80s is when arena act comedy started. And nobody was doing it but Dice. Dice was the only arena act. Yeah, and then arena act number two, Dane Cook.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And that's how many years later? Many. Because this is like Dane Cook's becomes an arena act in like the 2000s. Wow. Yeah. So then there's Dane Cook. Dane Cook starts selling on arenas. I was like, what is happening? What is happening? And then all of a sudden the internet happens and social media happens and a lot of comics. Like we were talking about like Dave Attell.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
and Colin Quinn, David Tell is one of the best to ever do it. And if there's ever a club where he's not sold out the moment it's on stage, it's a travesty. It doesn't make any sense. But they didn't connect to the internet the same way. And because the notoriety is not commensurate to the talent, whereas like with Schultz, the notoriety and the talent are perfectly balanced. It's the same level.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
If we're all doing it, I need we all to be doing it. So my friend Sean, who trained Alex Jones, is now training Shane. He's going to start training Shane. I heard about it. He puts him through the gauntlets. I told Shane, don't let him kill you. Don't let him kill you. That's how it makes you back him off a little in the beginning. These fucking psychopaths.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So everybody knows how good he is and everybody knows who he is. It's like it's locked in where it's like Dave Attell is this. But like the notoriety is like us talking about him only. Word of mouth only. His social media is hot garbage. He's got a flip phone. He's got a flip phone. And he texts you with a doot, doot, doot, doot. He's got to press four times to get an R or whatever the fuck it is.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's so stupid. It's so stupid. It's crazy he does it like that.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Let me throw this at you because I've been trying to stay off social media more and more every day, like a little less every day. And the more I do it, the better I feel. It's like not being poisoned. It really is. It's like getting away from a poison that you didn't know was a poison, like some forever plastics in your Starbucks cup or something.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I quit those Starbucks cups, and all of a sudden, you know what I mean? It's like something like that. I quit drinking tap water, and all of a sudden, I can think better. You know?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Oh my God, that's right. I forgot about Steve Martin for two reasons. One, because Steve Martin was a little different. He was doing stand-up, but it was a lot of songs. He was great, by the way. Like, Let's Get Small is phenomenal. But I think he got to a point where comedy became too easy for him. So he didn't know what was funny anymore because everybody loved him so much.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And he stopped doing stand-up, which is really weird. Wow. Probably didn't have good friends. Yeah. Because if he had good friends, we would have grabbed him like we grabbed Ron White. Remember when Ron White was trying to quit? Yeah. I'm going to retire. Like, what the fuck are you talking about? Why would you do that? Why would you do that? Isn't comedy fun? Yeah. So keep doing fun things.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
What the fuck is wrong with you? Like, I can't believe I have to give them this advice. Like, you're Ron White. How are you thinking about, how much fun are you having when you're killing up there? But I think that was the drinking thing too, man. Yeah, he's sober now. Yeah, it was drinking, and it was also he needed a tribe. And he had the tribe a little bit when he was in California.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
But he was always on the road a lot, and he just decided that being in the center of the country was better. So he was like patient zero of the Austin Revolution. A lot of people think it was me, but it was really Ron. Because I came here knowing that Ron was here. I was like, at the very least, Ron's here. You know? It's two of us. I'm like, I'm not living like this in California.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You're not doing this to me. I know what you're doing. The fucking caged animal in me is like, I'm getting out. This is gonna go sideways. I'm not gonna be a part of this. Fuck you. Okay, at least Ron's there. I was like, my life is gonna be worse than it ever was before. My life is gonna be, all my friends are gone. They're not here. I'm in the middle of the country.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Maybe I'll see him every now and then. Maybe I'll have to book shows to see them. But at least Ron's here. That's what I decided.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, he was patient zero. And now he hangs out every night.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You literally were like, Ron, why would you do that? Well, I thought everybody was just giving out Rolexes up in this bitch.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Because I've been a fan since I was a kid. I feel that same way. Yeah. I feel that way about a lot of guys. Like, I can't believe I'm friends with you. It's nice. It's nice. Well, that's good, right? You never stop being both a fan and a person who does it. I try to separate it. I try to separate me as a comic offstage versus me as a comic onstage. I really do. So I can just be a fan.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Oh, that's interesting. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because when I was younger, I used to watch someone going, oh, I would do it differently. Like, if they suck, I'll do that. If they suck, I'll go like, oh, that premise. I think, you're not explaining this very well. You know what I mean? I start picking it apart that way. But I like to just be a fan. I like to just watch.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Because I think a lot of people are real hesitant to give up flowers. As you like to say, but the reason why is because they don't feel good about comparing themselves to this person who may be doing better than them. So there's a feeling like, ah, he's all right, he's all right. There's a little bit of that, which I don't like that.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You got to build up to that kind of stuff. That's the thing. Like, Sean's in great shape. If you're used to coaching Navy SEALs and you're like, come on pussy, we gotta go, carry the fucking log. Who's gonna carry the boats? That's one thing. But when you're a guy like Shane and you're on a workout on again, off again, on again, off again, you can't hurt the guy. You gotta start slow.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And you figure things out. I was terrible when I started. There's no way to not be. Especially me. I was socially retarded. I've been hit in the head 150,000 times. I mean, there's some fucking issues there. There were some issues. And I was socially retarded because I spent, like, from age 15 to 21, just did nothing but travel around the country fighting people. That's all I did.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So my version of young adulthood was very weird. Like, it was 100% competition.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah. I think a lot of fighters have a hard time transitioning into being a regular person, and I was only an amateur fighter. I couldn't imagine being a guy like Dustin Poirier, who's about to retire, transitioning to being a regular person. He's been this fucking savage. Killer. For so long. For so long. At the highest level. That's like the highest.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
highest level in the world inside the octagon knocks out conor mcgregor yeah and you're like And that guy's got to transition to being a regular person. For me, there was no screaming crowds. It was weird high school auditoriums and trying to give people concussions. That's all it was. That was all it was. But there was no glory and no money, and it cost me some of my health, you know, for sure.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Hilarious dude. One of the best. One of the best. Fantastic. And getting better, man. All the time.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
There's, you know, and fear, constantly living in a state of anxiety that you're going to have to fight against constantly, constantly. And for some weird reason, I was like, why am I doing this to myself? I don't have to do this. Like, this isn't doesn't pay me any money. I don't have to do it. Why do I keep signing up to do this? The NBA 82 game grind is done, and now the real fun begins.

#2306 - Deric Poston
When we started working out, what'd we do? Start slow. Real slow.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, but there was no money. I remember I got offered $500 to do a kickboxing fight. So if I did that kickboxing fight, I couldn't fight amateur anymore. And I was like, $500. So then I can't... Like, if I ever decided to try to compete in the Olympics again, because I was trying to get on the national team to compete in the Olympics. But somewhere along the line...
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I got a little disenchanted with Taekwondo, and one of the ways that it happened is I started kickboxing, and I started getting beat up because my hands were dog shit. So I was really good kicking, but if I got into boxing exchanges, I was terrible. My chin was up in the air. I was fucking swinging punches like a bitch. It was awful. I could hit really hard.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
If I hit you, you're in trouble, but it was not good. And so I realized, oh, there's a giant flaw in this for actual real fights. There's a giant flaw in this. And as soon as I started kickboxing, particularly this friend of mine who was a really good boxer, Dana Rosenblatt, he was one of my training partners, and he became New England middleweight champion. He beat Vinny Pazienza in a decision.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
He lost him one fight and then beat him in a decision. He was legit. He knocked out Howard Davis Jr., who was an Olympic gold medalist. He was a bad motherfucker. And he also, when I was training with him, made me realize that I didn't really want to do this anymore. That I was just doing this because I had done it my whole life. And this was like what I decided I was doing.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And I was like, not only is there no future in this, there's a lot of brain damage coming my way. Like 100%. I'm getting it right now. And, you know, just sparring with Dana, me and him sparring. I don't know how many times we sparred, but we would beat the fuck out of each other, dude. Damn, really? Yeah. Oh, it was horrible. Yeah, I'd go home with headaches.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And if we were in boxing range, he was tuning me up. So I was always trying to stay on the outside because his hands were way better than mine. But we cracked each other. You and Dana White would fight? No, no, no, no. My friend Dana Rose would fight. Okay, I was like, I heard Dana and I was like. But if me and Dana were friends, we would do that too. I sparred with a lot of my friends.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
We beat the shit out of each other. It was horrible, but that's what you have to do. You know what the beautiful thing about jiu-jitsu is above kickboxing is you don't have this kind of animosity with your sparring partners. Because if you're in a good gym, in kickboxing, you're always hurting each other. And even if you love a guy and you spar with him, you're always hurting each other.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You think about getting him. Like, you think about it, he cracked you with a left hook, you're like, I am gonna get him back. I can't wait to get him back. Whereas with jiu-jitsu, you can't wait to tap somebody, but you're not hurting each other. You know, if you get hurt, it's an accident. The injuries in jiu-jitsu are usually either strain-related or, you know, you didn't tap, right?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's either you strained to get out of something or you pulled yourself the wrong way or you didn't tap. But in kickboxing, like, you're getting – your legs are getting fucked up every day. Wham! Wham! No matter what. And those pads, they help a little. Damn, and they're huge, Joe, those pads. When they look like it, when I watch them. Yeah, they help a little.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
That's back to it. We're seeing him on the security camera. We're going, what the fuck are you doing?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, if somebody kicks you, like if Israel Adesanya kicks you with one of those pads on, you can't believe the kind of agony that's involved in that way to make a living. So I was only doing it because I didn't know what to do. But I wasn't the same person that I used to be. At one point in time, I was just a mad dog.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And then I realized, like, I'm going to get really hurt, and there's no future in this, you know? Wow.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You know what it was really? I had one fight, I fought in the nationals in Anaheim. And I beat the first guy, so I got into the second round. And the second guy was this, I think he was from Illinois, I don't remember. But he was like super aggressive. And I hit him with the hardest wheel kick I've ever thrown in my life. It was perfect. he charged in with a left switch kick.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So he did a hopping roundhouse kick off the left side and I recognized it right away, there was a pattern. He was making this pattern when he was moving. He would do this thing and then he would always do this. He would do this thing and then he would always do this. So I saw that pattern and I said, here it comes. And so he went with his hopping roundhouse kick. I countered with this wheel kick.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And I hit him so hard that my heel was sore for days. I was limping for days because of the way my heel bounced off his face. And he face-planted, snoring. They snore when they go out. Have you ever seen anybody get knocked out? Oh, yeah. On the internet, of course you have. I had seen it a few times in the gym. It's spooky. It's spooky. And so...
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
My thing, what I would always do when I knock somebody out, is walk away like it was nothing. Like, that's what I always do. Like, that's what I do.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I just, I didn't celebrate. I just would turn my head and walk away. And I was talking to my friend, Junksick, who was, he was U.S. national champion. He was a training partner of mine. He was sitting in the seat, and I said, I'll never forget this. I'm like, is he moving? He's like, he hasn't gotten up. And so then they get him an ambulance. And so they put this kid on a stretcher.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And they have him sitting out there for 30 minutes. And he's just on the stretcher for 30 minutes. And then they bring him in the ambulance and they take him to the hospital. And I'm like, yo.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So this is what scared me. So I had this trainer or this instructor who's like one of the best Taekwondo instructors in the world. And I say to him, you know, well, he said to me, he said, he goes, I heard you had a really good knockout at the nationals. And I said, yes, sir. I said, it was, it was kind of scary because I thought like, I thought for a while that he was dead and he goes,
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Sometimes they die. And he walked away. I was like, oh, Jesus.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And he was fucking serious. He used to train troops in Vietnam. Like, he was a hardcore dude. He was hardcore. Oh, my God. Sometimes they die? Sometimes they die. Yeah. I think it was Vietnam where he trained troops. I forget where he trained troops. But he was, like, an elite taekwondo instructor. And he was... His mind was, like...
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
His name is Master Jae-Hun Kim, and he's the guy who runs the Jae-Hun Kim Taekwondo Institute. That's his business, and that's the place where I camped. He was like one of the few guys that was trained under General Choi Young-Yi, who was the founder of Taekwondo. So it was like there was a handful of black belts that were trained by this one guy. So it was like a different style.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So their style was very violent and very power-oriented. Whereas there was like an Olympic style that was emerging that was very points-oriented. It was just move fast and like tap and score. And they would yell and shit like that. Like every time they'd hit, they'd scream out. And so the Olympic style was more effective at winning tournaments.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And so the best guys were adopting like this Olympic style. But there was an older style that was just – Maybe they telegraphed the moves a little bit more, and maybe it was a little slow, but the impact was very different. Those guys were killers. They were knocking people unconscious. It was very scary. So that's the gym that I grew up in.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So I had this very fortunate place that I just stumbled into. I happen to be one of the best Taekwondo gyms in the country, especially for generating power because they really emphasize heavy back work. He really emphasized heavy back work. It's like you have to generate power. If you hit somebody and it doesn't hurt, that's ridiculous. You got to be able to hit someone and just put them out.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Before Taekwondo, I was a pussy. Really? Yeah, I couldn't fight at all. So why would I get in fights? I was trying to get away from fights. I was trying to avoid everybody. I was terrified. Wow. So I just got tired of being fucked with because I was a pussy. Because I would get nervous. Because I moved around a lot. I didn't have a lot of friends. We moved a bunch of times when I was a kid.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So it was always around new kids. And I wasn't big, so they would fuck with me. You know, it's just normal. And I didn't know how to fight, so it bothered the shit out of me. And so I'm like, well, there's only one solution. You know, you got to become what you're scared of.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You were like, hey, I want to do this. Yeah, I got a job. Started working, washing dishes at Newport Creamery. Got enough money so I could take Taekwondo lessons. Holy shit, Joe. And then I started going every day, so... After a while, he realized it would be better if I was just there all the time instead of working. And so he gave me a job.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, so I was teaching. So I started teaching when I was like 15. I was teaching people when I was 15. And then when I was 19, I was teaching at Boston University. I used to teach a class, accredited class. It was pass, fail, A. And I would tell everybody, it would count towards your GPA. So I'd say, if you come here, you get an A. That's all you have to do. Just try.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You know what though? It's true, but it's not true. So it's true that when the haircut came, he got more money on the weekend, but it's also like the haircut freed him to be Theo Vaughn. I agree. Do you remember when – I remember very clearly the first time I ever saw Theo. And he was doing a bit about being – not even a bit.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You're going to get an A. And it counts towards your GPA. And I tell them that at the beginning of the class. I go, if you can't come, if you can't make it, just call me and tell me that you can't make it, but I want you to come every time you can. And if you do that, I'm going to get you better. And we're all going to learn something. I'm going to really get into this.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So I was really good at teaching. Wow. I was really, really into teaching.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, well, that's what I was doing for a living. So from 15 to 19, I was just teaching. So what my instructor allowed me to do, I guess I was training after about six months or so. He said, look, you could train here for free. All you have to do is teach private lessons. I was like, great. So I would teach people, the new people, I would teach them how to bow. I teach them how to tie their gi on.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I would teach them how to stand. I would teach them different techniques. And I would go through them and get them so they're ready to join into group classes. Because you couldn't just go into group classes. You wouldn't know what you're doing. Like that front kick. You're like, ooh, looking around. Someone's got to teach you how to do it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So it was always like a big deal to let like one of your little birds loose into the main class. Like you teach them, get their front kick going, get the side kick going. They go through a series of private lessons. I tell them to practice on their own using the mirror, give them a bunch of like things to think about as they break down the movements.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Well, that's also what my instructor explained to me when I was really young, too. I say this all the time, and I even said it on the podcast yesterday. Martial arts are a vehicle for developing your human potential. That's what it is. It's just you're using martial arts as a way to get better at life. Because this is a really hard thing.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And if you could do this really hard thing, other things won't be as hard. You'll have more mental and physical horsepower for regular everyday life. You'll have more ability to overcome adversity and weird moments, uncomfortable moments. You're used to being uncomfortable. You'll be fine. It's different.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Well, that's great too, and I think that's probably more beneficial to society is learning how to play in a team. My problem was like when I – Look at Derek. I was a bad motherfucker, dude. Handsome off thin. Look at you. So handsome. You look like a fucking model, dog.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
We got to get you back to looking like that. You could look like that again. I know. You just got to lay off the card. They're so good. Oh, they're so good, Derek. Come on. Hot Cheetos and pasta. They're so good.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You walked in and you were like, three weeks off, boys. Bro, I had all this fucking side fat and belly fat that just went away. But most importantly, I just feel better. Like I never have days where I'm recovering from being drunk. Like I sound like shit now because I have allergies, which is hilarious because I always made fun of people.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
He was telling a story, a true story about when he was young, his father was really old. Like his father had him when he was like 70.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I was like, they're like, in three to five years, you'll get allergies. I'm like, shut up, pussy. I'm not getting these fucking bitch ass allergies you guys get. Now here I am.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
yeah it's so annoying it's so annoying for everybody to be right my wife gets me on that honey natural if you get honey from a local honey it gets rid of your allergies I've heard that too but the lady that we had in here that was a beekeeper says it's bullshit fuck yeah not only that she said most honey that like not most she said a lot of honey that you buy in the store is not really honey
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, they fuck you. They put like corn syrup and some fucking this and that. Yeah, they have fake honey. Fuck, man. Isn't that crazy? Is anything real? Isn't that crazy? Why would they do that? China. They're getting us. These dummies, they're not going to check. They're not going to check. Do you remember what she said, Jamie? What percentage she said?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
But she did say that a lot of honey was fake honey, right?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
bro it doesn't make sense because that's such a thing that's been natural in my head since the dawn of time right honey have you ever seen those cats that uh in the himalayas i think is it tibet where is it where they get that um psychedelic honey called mad honey remember jamie who brought that in for us we did it during the show yeah we we took some mad honey during the show how was the trip
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, something crazy. And he said he remembers being on acid lying next to his father and realized his father is just dying. Right. You know what I mean? Have you ever been around someone who's like really 100 years old? They feel like there's no life force in them. And they're almost trapped in their mind. And he's on acid lying next to him. I was like, whoa, this guy's weird. What a weird set.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
That's right. Shout out to Sonny. It wasn't, I mean, I was fine. I really didn't do anything that crazy. You definitely knew that you were on something. But he was like, take a little bit. I'm like, fuck this. Give me a teaspoon. I took the whole teaspoon. I'm like, let's go. I'm like, I want to go. Like Joey Diaz always says, I want to meet the devil. Fuck your microdosing.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I think that that is the first thing we have to make legal. We've got to get Trump on mushrooms. Just get him to have a little microdose. He'd be like, I'm really killing the game. You are killing the game, sir. My wife is hot. Aren't these mushrooms great? Yeah. God, that'd be crazy to see him on mushrooms. Oh, my God. Every politician should be on mushrooms. All wars would end.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Do you know how crazy that is for me to say that and it's also true? It sounds so stupid also because it's me and I'm stupid. But if like a scholar, if someone who you really trusted, the pinnacle of science today said if we could just get the whole world on mushrooms, all the wars would stop. Everyone would stop dehumanizing people. Everyone would stop treating people like others.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Everyone would realize like, oh, wow, we're really all connected in some bizarre way that's difficult to interface with sometimes. But we're all connected. We get selfish. We think about ourself only. But if we cannot, that's like one of the beautiful things about camaraderie and community. If you cannot, then you all sort of like lock in. You realize we're all experiencing this thing together.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
We're all like one thing that's separated by biology. But our soul, our spirit, whatever it is that is us inside of our meat bag is a soul. And it's connected to all the other souls in some strange way. And if you can figure out, it's almost like you're listening to some, it's almost like there's jackhammers going off around you, but you hear a really good song in the distance.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You know? Yeah. Like, you ever been to a restaurant and everybody's talking, but there's just some jam is playing on the radio, and you're like, God. I almost hear that song. Yeah, just a Marvin Gaye seeping through. That's what it's like. That's what it's like. I think there's different strategies that people use to try to get there, and I think God is one of them.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Like, even the concept of God, I think what you're trying to do is to get to that place where you recognize, like, through strategies of, like...
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
tactics of following commandments and having a mindset and and giving all your faith to jesus and all your faith you're like just by act of doing that what you're doing is you're trying to get closer and closer to whatever the fuck that that beautiful beautiful song is it's playing amongst all the noise because you know it's there it's just like
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's just like the Republican Democrat trap. It's just like the Texas, California trap. Shut up. We're all just people. We're all people. That's one of the beautiful things about traveling. You meet friends in Scotland. You meet friends in Ireland. You meet friends in Australia. People are just people, man. We're just all people. We adapt to whatever our environment is.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
We adapt to the culture, the way people sound their words out. I want to fit in. If you want to fit in, you move to the south, you start saying y'all. Have you said y'all yet? I say y'all. When did you start? But I'm from Memphis, Tennessee. Oh, that's right. I'm a little southern boy. Yeah, you've always had a y'all pass. Yeah, I've been a y'all. I was born in New Jersey, and I'm mostly Italian.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
For me, y'all is a stretch. I don't want to be disingenuous. Does it ever come out of you? No. Never? For funsies. Yeah, but it never accidentally comes out. Like, y'all going to go? No. I'm 57. Yeah. I say you. Are you guys? Yeah. Like, accents are weird, man. You don't realize you have them until you hear them, and you're like, whoa, why do I sound like that?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And he was talking about all kinds of other stuff too, but it was really fun, but it was interesting. And then I remember seeing him about a year, a year and a half later, and I couldn't fucking breathe. I was just crying laughing. My cousin got bit by a gay guy, so we'll see.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And it's impressive when you see people who can do them. I didn't know I had a deep Boston accent until I was on television for the first time. When I was 19, I won the Bay State Games, and I was on this, like, local TV news thing, and I got a chance to hear myself on TV. I was like, oh, my God, I sound like a fucking idiot. Like, what is this? Like heavy Boston accent.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, you don't have it as bad. I got rid of it. Yeah. I'm like, that's a dumb ass accent.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You get neutral after a while. I think your voice gets neutral.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And now. That kind of shit. That's the opposite of comedy. Right? Because that doesn't hypnotize anybody. Oh, no. When that guy's talking the news like, this is a presentation from NBC News. Yeah. Look at my tie. Look at the pocket square. I'm serious. I'm a serious person. Most of those guys are freaks. That's what I love when those guys get caught. Oh. Oh, yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Punching valets or animals. But on television, I present the news. Meanwhile, they're wearing a cock ring. Fucking freaks. All those people that pretend to be proper, those are the ones you got to keep your eye on.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's just a job. Bill Cosby was the guy who pushed the most for clean comedy. Yeah, isn't that crazy? Is it, though? Is it, though? Like scolding everybody for their language and their subject matter. He was scold comedians.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
People laugh. Do you get paid? Tell Bill to have a Coke and a smile and shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up.

the greatest jokes of all time dude it's so good well it's so good too because eddie murphy could do such good impressions yeah yeah and all the accents he's another one like this just stopped doing comedy like if eddie murphy would have been bigger than all of them all the arena acts we were talking about before eddie murphy would have been bigger bigger bro he was so good he was so powerful go back and watch delirious oh my god he was like 20
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Oh, my God. Yeah. It's crazy. But it's interesting, like, people, the path they choose in life, you know? Movies. Movies be calling. I think it's a velvet prison.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
He's like, it's a velvet prison. That's another velvet prison. But I'm sure Damon Wayans had a good time making all those TV shows, but wouldn't it have been amazing to see him being this guy that's selling out arenas all over the world? That's where it should be.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
He could do it right now. He could just abandon all that TV nonsense right now and go back to it and still be one of the best alive. You know, that guy records, like, every show. He has a camera that he takes with him on a tripod. He sets it up. He records every fucking show. And he puts them all on his computer. He goes, I've been doing this since 94. I'm like, wow. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
What the fuck are you saying? It was the timing and just the materials all over the place in this weird way. I love a guy like that.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
No. Doesn't have a lot of specials. Yeah. Compared to other guys where you see. Not compared to how good he is. It doesn't make sense. Yeah, it's crazy. You just, you know, someone's paying you. You go. You enjoy your work. You like it. You know, there's nothing wrong with those decisions, and it's obviously very successful. But, you know, you've got to think.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
When you see guys like Schultz selling out arenas and Burt selling out arenas and Tony selling out arenas, it's like, don't you want to get in on that? Like, come on, man. Talk to me, David. I'll help you. Oh, my God.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, I'd love to see him do that. I just think after a while, do you really want to work for somebody? Do you really want to show up?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's one of them. That's for sure. Rockstar is probably the big one.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah. But I don't- See, the Rockstar thing, they could sing the same ass song every night forever. Yeah. Like, if you're the Rolling Stones, you could still sing Brown Sugar. Nope. Can't sing it anymore.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
They don't sing Brown Sugar anymore. No. Come on. Bro, you ever see the lyrics to Brown Sugar? What are the actual lyrics? There's a reason why they don't sing it anymore. It's a great song. Don't get me wrong. It's still on my Spotify playlist. I might have pulled it out. I might get scared. Wait till you see the lyrics. That playlist is crazy long. It's great. We get turnt up in there.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You'll just listen to some random shit. Hey, we got you on this. Oh, yeah. I love a good random shit. Like, if I'm in a bar and I hear some cool random song, I love, like, that's why I love that Shazam app. Ooh, that's so nice. Here it is. Yeah, Gold Coast slave ship bound for Cottonfield, sold in a market down in New Orleans. Scarred old slaver knows he's doing all right.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Sometimes you need something like that to make you feel different, you know? Like some dudes, I think, like dressing nice on stage because they feel different. Or Burt likes to take his shirt off because he feels different. Burt could do the same set with a tuxedo on. It would be the same fun. Yeah, it would be the same fun.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Hear him whip the women just around midnight. Brown sugar, how come you taste so good? Brown sugar, just like a young girl should. Yeah, yeah. Drums beating, cold English blood runs hot. Lady of the house wondering if... wondering where it's going to stop. Houseboy knows that he's doing all right. You should have heard him just around midnight. This song's horrific. This song's crazy.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Brown sugar, how come you taste so good? Brown sugar, just like a young girl should. Oh, yeah, yeah. Get down on the ground, brown sugar. How come you taste so good? Get down, get down, brown sugar, just like a young girl should. I bet your mama was a tent show queen. And all our boyfriends were sweet 16. I'm no schoolboy, but I know what I like. You should have heard me just around midnight.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
This is a crazy song. To write all this down, slave ship? Did you say slave ship? Slave ship? Just like a young girl ship. What are you, what?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Sold in a market? What? And then scroll down a little bit. This was another one that I, I'm not sure what they're saying here. Hold on. Scroll down a little bit. Oh, yeah. I bet your mama was a tent show queen.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
What does that mean? What the fuck does that mean? What is a tent show queen? What's a tent show? Well, whatever it is, she's getting fucked. Something horrible is happening. Whatever's happening in that tent. That song is crazy. So they don't play that song anymore when you go see the Stones. You saw them. You've seen them live, right? Yeah. Bro, you see them live.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You can't believe they're really there. You're like, is that really them? It just seems so strange.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Tent shows are a generic term for traveling shows that pitch tents. So a tent show queen would have been a featured performer, probably in a vaudeville act. If the song is progressing forward in time, the fact that she had a 16-year-old boyfriend suggests she's either extremely sexually liberal or more likely prostituting herself. If she's prostituting herself, the power dynamic is reiterated.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
A black woman at the mercy of paying white men. Huh? What kind of fucking scholarly take on this song is that? What are they saying? This is so weird. No, that's fucking crazy. That's a weird definition.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Oh, I see. I see. Because I'm reading this. I'm like, the power dynamic is reiterated. What? A black woman at the mercy of paying white men. She advertises herself during the show and then sleeps on the side. What is that? I'm not, you know.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
They were monsters. They were monsters. Carnies would come into town, these carnival people, and rob everybody and steal and probably murder. Just dirty people traveling around trying to stay alive and conning people out of their money. The bearded ladies. Got fucking glued hair stuck to her face.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Shitting on, Joe, shitting on each other. Did you worry about getting shit on you while you were there? How close were you to these people?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I think amongst that community, that is a common way of saying hello.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I saw him later, pretty much having sex with the guy later. You just got to take a chance. You look like a gay guy is what he's trying to say.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
He thinks you're beautiful. Maybe he did see that out. That's what Schultz said later. Probably. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Well, imagine being a woman and that happens. That's what I was thinking. That's how I felt. That's reality. There's bad people out there. You know, guys grabbing asses in bars and...
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
beating up boyfriends yeah you gotta be careful you can run into the wrong dudes you know how people are jealous of you know other comic success well that ain't shit compared to like the way ugly dudes are jealous of handsome guys with a good looking girl whoo you know then that guy becomes the enemy look at this fucking pussy Look at this fucking pussy with that girl.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Look at her ass, that fucking pussy. And those mutts, they all get together and speak mutt language. Yeah, fuck him. Probably from out of town. Probably from that other piece of dirt where all those pussies live. Where you from, pussy? From that pussy town. Just another town over. Down the road.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Some fucking rival baseball team that beat them when they were in seventh grade and they still haven't let go of it. Yeah, dude, they get pissed. Yeah, there's a lot of idiots in the world, man. They all need mushrooms. They all need mushrooms. Yeah. Mushrooms would make you abandon all that townie shit. You'd be like, what? Oh, my God. This is so silly. Yeah, you realize how big the world is.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, you got to learn how to do that some way, right? And some people it's alcohol and some people it's the way they dress and some people it's weed and some people it's, you know, they have to run, they have to jog before they do a set.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, I picked such a small camp. A town of 2,200 in the middle of Nebraska. Trying to start fights with the people from Des Moines. Yeah. Fucking Iowa faggots. People are so silly. They're so silly. God, how fast would you have kicked that guy into oblivion if he tried to grab your dick like that? Well, you don't want to just escalate right to, like, extreme violence.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I'm here now. You got to be careful, man. People get stabbed. People get shot. People – you don't – extreme violence is – should be reserved for really defending yourself.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You have to defend yourself. You have to know you're actually being attacked.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You should never exchange violence with someone unless you fucking have to. You shouldn't do it. Avoid it at all. That's why I never had any street fights. Avoid it at all costs. I mean, I had like one in high school. Well, I had two. Two in high school. They were nothing, though. No big deal. But then, once I started competing, I was done with all that.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, but if you do tune somebody up like they die sometimes like what my instructor was saying is true Especially in the real world because people fall and they hit their head on the concrete That happens people die like that all the time they get knocked out their head bounces off the concrete and then they're dead Yeah, it's like getting a giant rock dropped on your head from like a second-story building.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I Yeah. Think about what the earth is. You know, like the earth, like the concrete is immobile and so hard. And all of the weight of your 200 plus pound body falls backwards and your head bounces off that concrete. And it's the most sickening sound.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, but that's like way safer than getting knocked out on the concrete. But yeah, I do hear it all the time. It bothers the shit out of me when I see someone's head bounce. When they get KO'd and their head bounces off the ground, I'm like, oh! Bro, did you ever see the one when Josh Emmett knocks out Bryce Mitchell? Oh, my God, dude.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's one of the worst one-punch knockouts in the history of the sport. He knocks him out, and Bryce Mitchell's legs are twitching, and he's, like, locked up completely out cold. And when he goes down—now, imagine someone gets hit like that on the street. and you fall back like that on concrete.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So not only do you get destroyed by the punch, but then you get destroyed again by the earth covered in concrete, bouncing off the back of your head with all the weight of your body and leverage to the back. The head is the first thing that hits. Your head flies back, and all this weight is bang. Watch this. This is a crazy knockout, dude. It's so fast, you don't even really see it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
His legs start shaking. Yeah, you hear DC saying? He's shaking. He's shaking, Joe. Oh, my God. Flush. Flush. And Josh Emmett is a little tank. I mean, he's 145 pounds for about five seconds until he weighs in. Then he probably weighs about 170, and he hits like a fucking mule. Look at this. Boom. Look at the back on that motherfucker. Look how he's built, man.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And imagine how much force is involved in that guy punching you in the face.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, it's coming out of you. Also, you want to get your heart rate up a little bit so your body is like, and your mind is like, things are flowing really good. You don't want to be like sleepy and then go on stage, right? That's the worst thing in the world. Or a full meal and go on stage. Yeah. You want to be up a little.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I saw that live. That might be one of the best front kicks of all time. That's perfect. The technique is perfect. I mean, that's a real picture. That's a live. He made his face look like that. That's so crazy. He looks like a grandpa in a Pixar movie. Doesn't he?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Years ago. It was Kill Bill level revenge. So he looks at his son and he falls down like the kid did. A little kid. And then he pops back up. Then he pops back up and then he gives the best post-fight speech in the history of the sport.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah. He told me that his leg was getting compromised already. One of the things in the first fight, so the first fight in the UFC, Poiton wins, and he wins by stoppage. And Izzy said, I wasn't even really hurt. I just couldn't move because he had fucked my leg up so much. I couldn't get out of the way of his punches. Damn. He's like, but I wasn't hurt.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Like, real badly hurt to the point where he's wobbling. He's like, my leg wasn't working. He kicked the shit out of his leg. His calf kicks are so nasty. He's like, out of all the people in the sport, he's the worst guy to have kick your calves. Because he sneaks them in. And there's two and three. And before you know it, ah, fuck. My leg don't work anymore. God. And now you're trying to get away.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And he's teeing off. And you got one leg. And you're trying to dance and pretend. So you're putting all the weight on this leg. So you're trying to pretend like you got two legs. But he can tell. God. He can tell. Thud. He hits it again. Thud. So he had Izzy in real trouble, but he opened up too much. He just opened up too much.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And to order to close in on someone and bang them out, you've got to leave yourself exposed sometimes. There's risks to reward, right? And the cautious, patient thing to do is you throw a lot of feints and then you throw your shots in. But he was just teeing off at this point. And when you're just teeing off... you're assuming that the guy's incapable of countering to a certain extent.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Or not that he's incapable, you're taking the risk of getting countered. Whereas if he just kept playing that game and fainting and moving and slowly picking and poking and knowing, he just charged in a little too much. He thought Izzy was hurt more than he was. And then Izzy got him. That right hand. He got him. One of the greatest knockouts of all time.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Especially when you think about the significance of it and you think about historically two great champions. One guy who had knocked him out in kickboxing and then knocked him out in the UFC and then he knocks him out cold and gets petty. And then after petty, gets super inspirational. Yeah. And gives one of the greatest post-fight speeches of all time. I think the greatest.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I don't think there's ever been a better one. Oh, maybe. Maybe Rose Namajunas. That was right up there, too. That one made me cry.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Sweetheart of a guy. So fun. Just to hang out with and shoot the shit. He's silly. He's fun. Oh, dude. He's playful. You know, he's just a real good guy. Real smart.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's really interesting how different those guys... I mean, like we were talking about like Dustin Poirier, like having a regular life. Like the same thing with Izzy. Like... How do you have a regular life after you did that? You did that. You did that in front of the whole world. The whole world was watching. There was so many consequences on that.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
That fight, because you were winning, he was winning that first fight. He was winning. He was ahead on points. And then the fourth round, it was the fourth or the fifth where he got put out. It was devastating. This motherfucker got him again. Because he got robbed in the first kickboxing fight. Izzy got robbed, in my opinion. I went and I watched that fight several times.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I mean, robbed is a tough... But I would say I do not agree with the decision. I think Izzy won that kickboxing fight. And then the second kickboxing fight, Izzy had him on skates. Izzy had him hurt at one point in time, but he recovered. And then he caught Izzy with a left hook from hell. Just a left hook from hell. That motherfucker hit so hard, dude.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
He hit so hard. And he wasn't as big back then as he is now. A lot of strength and conditioning work since then. He doesn't look the same. Like then as he does now. Now he looks way more strong. And so he knocks him out, and then they fight in the UFC, and he knocks him out again. And then Izzy finally knocks him out. It was awesome.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And then puts the arrows in his body for the three times he beat him. Yeah, I know. He said that was like he didn't even think of that. He just did three. He just felt like doing three. But it was really the three times he beat him.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
He, well, Bill is also amazing at being Bill. Like, you know, like, he has, he has his opinions, his, what he thinks is stupid about something, and he's just, like, locked in. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like, there's no, like, some comics, like, you'll see one of their hours, and it's kind of, like, one kind of energy, and then the other hour, it's, like, kind of a different kind of energy.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Jamie played that for us one time. It's like one of the greatest speeches of all time. And, you know, he asked me for the microphone, too. He did. People.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It sounds like 15 writers sat in a room and came up with the perfect lines. Yeah. And then, ugh.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And I bet that just came out of the moment. I didn't even ask him. I should have asked him next time I talked to him. I bet that just came right out of the moment. It was just right there. It was a perfect event for him. It was perfect. The way it went down was perfect. You could never script that better in a movie. No.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
To see him flattened out, out cold, and then put arrows in his unconscious body.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Bro, Alex Pereira is the scariest kickboxer that's ever competed in the sport. He's like the one guy above all that I would say if he hits you once, you're dead. He just has to hit you once. Out of all the guys I've ever seen fight, I don't think anybody I could say that more than that guy, including in kickboxing, in everything. He has more power than anybody I've ever seen. Even boxing?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I don't think I've seen anybody that hits harder than that guy. Anybody. Ever. Ever. Ever. Except Francis Ngannou. But Francis Ngannou's 265. You know what I'm saying? But in weight class, like weight class to weight class, Francis can put anybody out too. But he's not at the same skill level as Poiton.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So when Poiton does it, it's like when he switch kicked Yuri Prohaska and KO'd him at the beginning of the second round. Jesus Christ. Like... What the fuck, man? And he KO'd him already at the end of the first round. Yeah, just terrifying. That dude's terrifying. Just absolutely terrifying. That power is just from God. It's like he's got a gift. He's got a weird gift that's just different.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You know there's this machine where you punch it and it registers the amount of power? With Francis, it was like 130-something. Something like that, right? Francis was like 130-something. Poiton got 191. 191. With his right hand. And I don't even think his right hand's his power punch. I think it's his left hook that's the big one. I bet the big one, the left hook, is over 191. It's bananas.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
His power, it's not like anybody else. So when is he knock that guy out? That, you gotta understand, that's different. That's different. Like, that's the top of the mountain. That's the top of the mountain in the sport. It's like one of the greatest accomplishments in the sport.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
To two-division world champion? Yeah. No one's even close. Because that guy never says no. They call him up. You want to fight next weekend? Yes. He just fights. He fought with a broken toe. He fought a broken hand the last time. His hand was broken, and he had a norovirus, and he still fought.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Well, Bill Burr is Bill Burr. I'm Bill Burr. That's great. I'm Bill Burr. He knows how to be Bill Burr. He's professionally Bill Burr. That's a great point. A lot of people couldn't even do his material. It just, like, wouldn't work.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yo, me and DC were in the hallway upstairs in the mothership, and he's teaching us how he checks the calf kick. how he throws the calf kick different than everybody else, and he's having Pelino, his coach, is translating. So it was me and DC, and we're both standing there, and you know that little area where the elevator is, where the VIP is?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And they're good? Yeah. How the fuck? But one of his bits is his fucking hair. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So we're standing there, and this little crowded area is like five of us, and Peliton's kicking my legs, and he's kicking DC's legs, and he's explaining how he lifts his leg up this way, and this is how he checks it, and you're like, oh, shit. And both DC and I, do we tell people about this? Like, I don't even know if I want to give this up. Yeah, give us information.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Because this is, like, very good information. Wow. Like, he never gets hurt with calf kicks. And, see, like, the way he checks them, he does, like, a hacky sack thing. A lot of people are doing it now. But he was, like, one of the first guys to figure that out, that he does, like, this hacky sack move.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So when you go to kick his legs, instead of just checking it, where he turns it into the kick, he lifts his leg up, and his leg just kind of goes like this, and the kick just goes wee. Yeah. It just kind of grazes it. So it never pounds on his calf the way he pounds on theirs.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
But he also has a different style. He's not heavy on the front leg. Some guys are heavy on the front leg because they want to take him down quick. So they want to be able to move and take him down. And those are the guys that are going to have a harder time getting away from that kick. Because you've got so much weight on that leg. So he just thud, thud, thud. And then now your calf is numb.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Your foot is limp. Your foot's just dangling around your ankle. Oh, that guy's terrifying, dude. And again, how does a guy like that go and become a regular person? How do you integrate and just be a regular guy after that?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's got to be very weird. Like, Schaub's figured it out. Yeah. But Schaub got lucky that he found podcasting, you know, and he found his car show, All Gas, No Brakes. So, like, he found a way to transition and still have a good time.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Like, this guy fucking hates the world, dude. But that's just the magic of becoming, you know, you, right? Like, there's a few, like, Attell is the absolute best at it. Yeah. Attell has a timing... and a presence, and then the material, the way it's written, like a lot of it on paper, you'd be like, what is this? I don't understand how this would be funny.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So there's like fighters like Shaw, elite fighter, you know, top 10 heavyweight in the UFC. But then there's champions, world champions, guys who sell out arenas, pay-per-view stars like Conor. How's that guy go and be a regular person? How do you do that? You can't. Yeah. It's like, I mean, there's no coaches for that where they teach you how to reintegrate and become normal.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
He made a lot of money with that grill. But he also came back when he was 36. Yeah, and won it again, didn't he? Yeah. He went all the way through until he was 45 and he knocked out Michael Moore, which is crazy. Like, nobody did that back then. When he came back at 36, I remember news articles about it. I remember feeling sad.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Because I knew George Foreman when I was a child like George Foreman on TV when he knocked out Joe Frazier when Ali beat him in Africa that was a famous story because Hunter S Thompson went there and he was supposed to Watch it and write a story for Rolling Stone about it But he was so sad that Ali was gonna get fucked up that he decided not to go to the fight so he stayed in his hotel and just floated around the pool and he fucked up the whole assignment and
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And in the documentary, they say it was kind of like a pivotal moment in the downturn of his life where he kind of like fucked his life up. Really? Yeah, because he failed in his assignment. And back then, you couldn't watch the tape. We're talking about the 1970s. So after the fight's over, the fight's over. You miss the fight. You don't have a story. And so he didn't have a story.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And he went all the way to Africa and just fucked off because he was just being silly. And they're like, oh, my God, I'm a failure. I failed in my story. And it was like a downturn in his life kind of takes a dark turn after that.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Well, you got to understand, man, George Foreman was a machine. He was different. You ever seen George Foreman punch the heavy bag? No. Bro, he punched the heavy bag different than everybody. Because he winds up. Not only does he wind up and punch the heavy bag, he has it stay still. And he just hits it so hard. And it's so terrifying that that's all he has to do in a boxing match.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
He just has to kind of cover up and get close enough to just whomp you. Just whomp. Whomp. And a lot of it is arm punches. Look at this. Listen to this. Give me some volume.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So all he's practicing is hitting hard. He's not trying to be slick. You notice the difference? Yeah. The way like Canelo hits the heavy bag or Floyd hits the heavy bag, they're working skills.
The Joe Rogan Experience

Tyson hit the heavy bag better than anybody in the history of the world. Better than anybody. Because he hit the heavy bag with all these crazy angles and speed. Speed like a lightweight. Speed like a lightweight. He's bouncing. 214 pounds moving like a lightweight. Bam! Nobody was like that, dude. I still maintain he's the greatest. I think for, you know, a lot of people shit on me.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
But you see him do it in real life, you're like, oh my God. You're just crying. Yeah, and when the crowd is more ruckus, he's better. He's in on the corniness of some of the stuff too, which makes it even more fun. It's like there's many layers to it, and some of it is just brilliant observations on things. Some of them is completely ridiculous.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
They said, no way, you don't know shit about boxing. I just think that run when Cus D'Amato was training him to the title, Cus was already dead when he won the title to like a few fights afterwards. Losing Cus, he lost his way a little bit, but that run when he was the man, when he knocked out Marvis Frazier, I think that's the greatest heavyweight of all time. I don't think anybody's even close.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I think he fucks them all up. I think he fucks them all up if they fight him during that time.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's all about the run. Unreal. That's why I always put BJ Penn in the list of all-time greats. Because during that run, when BJ Penn beat up Diego Sanchez, and when BJ Penn fucked up Sean Shirk, and Joe Daddy Stevenson, when he did that, I'm like, that BJ Penn might be the baddest motherfucker alive. He might be the baddest motherfucker alive. I would have put that BJ Penn.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I would have loved to see that BJ Penn versus Khabib. That would have been fucking crazy. And a lot of people think that's a ridiculous thing to say because Khabib was so dominant and BJ lost a bunch of times. I'm like, you're right. argument I accept I mean I'm not Khabib might have beat him he might have taken him down and mauled him the same way George St.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Pierre did he might have Khabib's a big guy especially for lightweight and his grappling skills are unparalleled Khabib grapples and does fantastic with elite world championship caliber amateur wrestlers I've heard stories of Khabib dominating guys in the gym at AKA that are elite wrestlers. That's how good Khabib is.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So he might have been able to do that to BJ Penn, but BJ Penn might have got him too. BJ Penn might have got him. BJ Penn, especially when he's training with the Marinoviches and he had an unstoppable gas tank.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Because he went and trained with Marv Marinovich, who was like this psychopath football trainer, who had these radical plyometric training methods. And all you did was strength and conditioning. It was like, you know how to fight. Stop all this fight training. We're just going to get you in the most in-chain state possible. And when they did that, BJ Penn was unstoppable.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
That BJ Penn, if somebody could have corralled him and got him to stay with that guy and then train all his skills outside of camp and then only train that way when he had his world title fights and never fuck off, who knows, man? Who knows? He could have been the GOAT. He was so talented, man. Wow. So talented. That motherfucker, BJ Penn won the Mundiales, okay?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
He was the first American to win the Mundiales. Ever. The Mundial is the world championships in Brazilian jiu-jitsu. As a black belt, three years in a training. Three years in a training. First of all, it's insane to get a black belt in three years. But to get a black belt in three years and then win the world championships is insane. Insane.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I was a brown belt for eight years. Yeah. I was. And you were dedicated. Yeah. It's not like you weren't busting your ass. Yeah, I trained a lot. Like, you know, they don't give those out, man. You have to earn it. It has to be real. Unless you're in a terrible gym. If you're at a legit gym, you know, if I'm training with... John John Camichano doesn't give out black belts.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So you got to be real to get that. You got to choke a lot of people to get that. And BJ Penn got in three years. Three years. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's ability. He's an addict. He said it to me like we had a conversation on the phone once. It was really funny. He goes, I was talking to this guy and he was really young and he was like, you know, like he goes, BJ, I admire you. You know, I copy your style and this and that. And he goes, man, you got so good so quick. He goes, man, I'm like you. I'm an addict.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You know, it's just all, but it's woven into Dave Vettel. And he'll pull out a fucking recorder. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He starts to play the flute. It's crazy. Bro, when we saw him live, I was so fucking impressed. At the Mothership, yeah. I was so impressed. I was like, that is so good. You know who's another one like that? Colin Quinn. Man, when he was here.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
He goes, I'm just addicted to jujitsu. And he's like, fuck, man. And then I realized that that's it. I'm addicted to jujitsu. I got addicted to something really good. I'm addicted. And I was like, that's exactly what it is, right?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah. It's the same thing that can turn you into a junkie, unfortunately.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I knew a dude who was a world championship caliber pool player. And he was squeaky clean. He ate well. He drank water. He never drank alcohol. He didn't smoke cigarettes. He didn't do drugs. Straight as an arrow, super focused, world championship caliber player. Then he hurts his back in a car accident. And they get him on those pills and falls apart, man.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Gets addicted to those pills the same way he was addicted to being a pool player.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
the same thing that made him just obsess on pool where he's thinking about pool so much it becomes like the scariest guy to play the same thing got him with the pills and then he just overdosed and died young and but he was like one time my buddies were hanging out with him and he fell asleep in his mashed potatoes just fell asleep in his food they were eating he just just grayed out on pills right into his food and they had to pick him up out of the food like oh no
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
This is a guy that was straight as an arrow, clean as a whistle, super focused, always dressed nice, always looked good, thin, in shape.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Just one click to the left and it went. One click to the left, one accident, and then pills, and then no one understanding how addictive those fucking pills were. The doctors never told you. Nobody told anybody. You know?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I have many people that I know that that happened to. Many people that I know that got injured, got on pills, and just lost their lives. Jiu-jitsu guys, friends, a lot of people. Especially, again... Back before the information was available. Now everybody knows pain pills are super, super addictive. Everybody knows someone in their family. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Everybody knows someone that just can't get off them. Everybody knows somebody that died. I know multiple people that have died from pain pills. Yeah. And so that's what got them. But it's the same thing, man.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah. It's that thing in your head that makes you obsess on something. That's what it is. It's like this thing where you're trying to figure this thing out and you just want to get better at it. But that could be hijacked by gambling. That could be hijacked by video games. That could be hijacked by anything.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
All that stuff. That seems normal to me. That makes sense biologically. But the gambling one is the craziest one to me.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
that's the weirdest one because that might as well be heroin to those people that the whatever they're getting out of like risking a hundred thousand dollars on a football game Watching people do that, I was like, oh.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Bro, you see him live, you're like, wow, that was so good. Just so fun. You forget how good he is.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
That's like the dumbest version of it, though. But the big, risking everything on a game or risking everything on, like, roll the dice. A roulette. Yeah, a roulette. Like, that kind of thing is so nuts. It's so nuts to watch. It gives me so much anxiety. Like, you ever see Uncut Gems, that Adam Sandler movie?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Well, the movie's so good, it locks you in, like we were talking about, like comedy is like hypnosis. That movie was like hypnosis. Like it locked you in to this character and his decision making and this addiction to gambling that he has. And all the shady characters around, everybody's pulling scams and everybody's doing this and that. And there's always something happening. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You're like, I didn't know this. Yeah, he's like a history wizard. I remember we did Tough Crowd once, and Colin used to do stand-up to the crowd before the show would start, before we'd sit down and do Tough Crowd.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, your mind is weird, man. People's minds are strange. Like, you know, minds can go down these weird pathways. And it's like most people don't have a good management system for it either. So it's like you're driving this car with no traction control and too much horsepower. It's flying all over the road and, you know, ah!
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Ever. For experience. Just like for sheer like... Just becoming that guy. Yes. He was that guy. You believed every single second of it. There was no soap opera acting going on at all. No, dude.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You know what I mean? He's a regular dude. There's a little element of that guy in everybody that's a crazy billionaire. Yes. How do you get there? You have to manage that the same way everybody manages everything else. Imagine trying to manage being Elon Musk. Imagine trying to manage that. Imagine. Just trying to manage that.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It doesn't make any sense. It doesn't make any sense. Like it doesn't even seem real. Like it could possibly be real.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You know what I mean? And people are scrutinizing him at a level like they want him to be perfect in every way. And it's like you don't get that out of these wacky geniuses. You don't get perfect. You get unbelievable capabilities mixed in with all kinds of flaws that even he makes fun of. Like, you know, he's even talked openly about, like, self-inflicted wounds that he gives himself on Twitter.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
this one time i don't know if he did it all the time but he was murdering murdering and i was watching this i was like people don't know how good he is like this is crazy because like there's some guys they'll warm up for their show and it's like a monologue they're doing a few jokes it's like it's okay it's okay but i'm not in it i'm not really feeling it with him it was like i was at a club i was like dying laughing like i was at a comedy club i was like
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
He's posted about it with, like, laughter emojis. Like, but he's having a good time no matter what.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, well, he's not that way. He's not like a murderous fucking psychopath who steals people's oil.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Well, I think his drive is different than most of them and his drive is accomplishments and innovation. Like he's obsessed with getting people to Mars. He's obsessed with the engineering involved in what they've accomplished already with SpaceX. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
The ability to take a booster, shoot it off into space, and then the booster comes down and lands and gets caught with robot arms is so off the charts beyond anything anyone else has accomplished in the world of rocketry and space science and all the engineering involved. It's off the charts. Like what SpaceX has done.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's not appreciated enough because he's so polarizing politically because of his affiliation with Trump. And because of all the propaganda that has been spun his way, there's some definite natural reactions that people have to him that are organic and real. And they get upset at some of the things he does. That's real.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
But also there's a gigantic propaganda machine that's trying to paint him as a literal Nazi. And they're doing it because they have a vested interest in keeping all these NGOs and all their funding in place exactly the same way it's always been. And having a genius go into all of your fucking booking, bookkeeping and accounting is not good.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
If you've been unchecked for decades and you have a fucking just an unstoppable budget and a lot of waste and a lot of incompetence and probably a bunch of fraud and theft, too. Of course, it's Yeah, I mean, they've acknowledged that.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
One of the things they said, which was hilarious, they said he found, I think it was Social Security or Medicaid, a bunch of fraud, and then they were saying, well, actually, the government had already identified this two years ago. Okay, but why didn't you have this press conference and say – Did you just cover it up? Did you make a big deal? Did you stop it in its tracks? Did you reverse it?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Did you prosecute people? Did you get the money back? Why are you saying, yeah, we already knew about that? That's not good enough. What did you do? How come you didn't find out about that $250 million that went to transgender animal studies? You didn't notice that one? You didn't notice $21 million through Iraq and Sesame Street? You didn't notice that?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You didn't notice, like, fucking, like, just so much of it is kooky. It's so much money. And the way NGOs and nonprofits work, I didn't understand it. I didn't know that it's all, like, cyclical money that's, like, flowing around. There's billions of dollars. It's just flowing around. A lot of it's unchecked, and they've been doing it forever. And that's why we're $36 trillion in debt.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You know, not good. How does it get that bad? I don't know. But then there's also legitimate arguments on the other side. Like the other side is making a very legitimate argument about the right to due process if you get processed and shipped out of the country and put in a prison in El Salvador. You know, what is the quote?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Was it Benjamin Franklin's quote about innocent and that it's better to allow 10 guilty people to go free than one innocent person arrested? You know, I'm on that side of things. Yeah, that's my I mean, I think due process exists for a reason.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And the reason is it is horrific for someone to be accused of something they didn't do, be imprisoned for crimes they didn't commit and then live in a cell, live in a cage with a bunch of people who did commit shit. Here it is. Benjamin Franklin. It's better. A hundred guilty person should escape than one innocent person should suffer. That is wisdom that has survived hundreds of years.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's incredibly accurate. And it is the foundation of freedom. We have to make sure that these people are actually guilty. Otherwise, we become monsters. You can't... What is that? When you fight monsters, be careful that you don't become one. Become one. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
People don't understand. There's a few of these guys that just never got good at promoting. And they're really good. Yeah. And the interesting thing is the really good ones are not bitter. They're not as famous as they deserve to be. Like, Attell is the least bitter guy alive. Yeah, he's so cool. Not even remotely bitter. Always friendly. Yeah, he'll talk to an open mic all day. Sweet, peaceful.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's very important. It's very important. You can't do that. But also, you can't... You also have to deal with the fact that the current administration is dealing with the past administration allowing known gang members and terrorists to go right through the border unchecked. That a lot of them they know got through.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
They don't know the exact numbers, but they know there's millions and millions of people illegally just walked through unchecked. And a bunch of them have to have criminal records. A bunch of them have to be dangerous. And we've seen crimes that have been committed. It doesn't help anybody on the progressive side to deny the fact that that's a real problem.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And if it happens to your family, God forbid, I don't want it to happen to anybody's. But if it does, you will feel a sting of regret if you supported that. Unlike anything you've ever experienced in your life. You'll be like... I mean, it's one of those things where to support one side of this, you have to deny some basic human values.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Either way, to support just rounding people up and just assuming they're all gang members. I'm not saying they're doing that, but this is the worst case scenario. They get a bunch of people in a room, they rope them all in, and one guy is just someone's cousin picking someone up to give him a ride home. That's possible.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And what if that dude is not doing anything wrong and he's got some stupid tattoos and they decide that this guy's a gang member and now you're in a prison in El Salvador and you're not even from El Salvador. And now you were just a hairdresser or you were a tattoo artist or whatever you are. You came over here and maybe you got a green card and maybe you don't.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Maybe you were just given asylum because a lot of people from Venezuela were given asylum in America. Yeah. And then you get shipped to El Salvador, where you're not even from El Salvador. So the fact that that exists scares the shit out of me. But also the fact that they were just letting terrorists and gang members flow freely into the country is fucking horrible.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And when you talk about innocent people, what about the innocent people that got murdered by terrorists? Well, not terrorists. That really hasn't happened. But gang members, this trender wagwa that were taking over those apartment buildings in Aurora, Colorado. And like, that's scary shit, man. Armed with machine guns, taking over apartment buildings. Like, what are we talking about here?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Like, what are we talking about? You're letting that happen? You're not sending in the troops to stop this?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Bro, they got a guy. That had done that in California and they refused to deport him because they said that California is a sanctuary state. They're like fighting to keep a known gang member free in America. The whole thing is bananas. It's like almost like you don't want to go full tinfoil hat Sam Tripoli style and just decide –
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Decide that they're trying to destroy America, but if I was gonna try to destroy America, that's how I would do it Yeah, I'd take over the political process in part censorship on all the social media like Gaslight people to no end Consistently do it Astro turf stadiums filled with people pretending they support something pay them to be there manufacture a movement and
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And slowly but surely bring chaos to all the cities. Allow DAs to get elected that are the worst when it comes to protecting people and the best when it comes to freeing violent criminals. And that's really their goal. And they can just use words like racial justice. Just send murderers back out into the streets. You just create chaos. Defund the police. Now you have no police.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Like, he's as present as you can get. And he's infinitely less famous than he should be. He should be selling out arenas all over the world. He's that good. He's so good, dude. He might be the best comic alive. There's a few in my mind that are in the running for that. Who's the best? I guess there's no one best. It's sports. You always have to consider Chappelle. He's the GOAT of our generation.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
If I wanted to destroy America, I would do it this way.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And then have them at each other's back. at each other's throats, rather. You know, constantly have them fighting over political issues. Let's get rid of Roe v. Wade. They're a little too happy right now. Get rid of Roe v. Wade, and then the liberals are up in arms.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Which was, getting rid of Roe v. Wade was actually a good move if you were a Democrat, because then people get upset, and then they really want to vote. Like, you could probably ignite a lot of people. And that was like, there was some famous videos. There was one famous video of this lady celebrating that Kamala Harris was going to win. And she was like, reproductive freedom.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Women came out to vote in unprecedented numbers. I'm sure you've seen it. It's a video of this lady mocking this guy working at a liquor store. Did you ever see it?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's so good. It's so good because it's like this lady and the way she's talking, like you can't be a good person and talk to someone this way or even about someone this way and be happy in the way you're happy. It's like people like to be shitty. To people and think that it's justifiable to be shitty if that person disagrees with you. So you can be shitty.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Whereas the guy in this story is not being shitty to her at all, but she's being super shitty to this guy. But she's talking about reproductive rights. Because that was one of the big things that got people to come out and vote for the Democrats. If I was playing 4D chess and I was a Democrat, I was like, this is what we do.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Get rid of ourselves. Get rid of ourselves. And then campaign on that. Okay, now we got all the women.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Because women don't want men telling them what to do. Bitch, you can't get pregnant. Shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up. Just shut the fuck up. Shut up. Until you can get pregnant, shut the fuck up. Yeah. It's like, so this lady, you got it, Jamie? You can find this video. It's so funny. This poor lady. But it's about reproductive rights. Like, she's saying that. And it was for a lot of people.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
That was a big one. So you would do that. You would do that. You would get rid of that. You would try to get rid of the Second Amendment. Fuck the Second Amendment. We're going to get rid of all guns. Oh, the fucking gun guys. Get up for the Republicans. And then you would say, we need open borders because we need – our society is – population collapse.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And they're starting to say things like that. And we need – who's going to pick cotton? Yeah. They're essentially marketing it because they're saying Americans don't want these jobs, so we have to bring people in to pick our crops. Who's going to clean your toilets? People are openly saying that, like not realizing how racist this is.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It was like one of those crazy views. One of those view bitches. One of them.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hilarious. So there was that going on. If you wanted to destroy society and make it worse, what would you do? You bring people in from a third world country. Don't have them change anything. Financially incentivize them to be there. Give them free money while you're not helping the poor people in America.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
They were giving them debit cards, free housing, free food, putting them up in the Roosevelt Hotel in New York City. Why, old shit? If you want to destroy society, that's how you would do it. That's how you would do it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I mean that sounds you would just keep working like it's going in that direction So the problem with things that are going in a radical direction and then there's an over correction So the over correction is lack of due process The over correction is like round them all up ship them to jail Like that's like some things that you say when you're not thinking things through like what do you do about all the criminals?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Take them all Fucking send them to El Salvador. Yeah. What about due process? No, fuck that. Well, here's the problem with fuck that. What if you are an enemy of, let's not say any current president. Let's pretend we got a new president, totally new guy in 2028. And this is a common practice now of just rounding up gang members with no due process and shipping them to El Salvador.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You're a gang member. No, I'm not. Prove it. What? I got to go to court. No, no due process. That's dangerous, Joe. That's dangerous. That's dangerous. That's dangerous. We got to be careful that we don't become monsters while we're fighting monsters.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
But then again, you got to find these motherfuckers that are here that have terrorist cells and that are ready to fucking blow up malls in Dallas and do crazy shit, which- Definitely, they've thwarted before. So this is the best argument for intelligence agencies, is that there's real threats. For someone to say, fuck all the CIA, fuck the FBI. Are you crazy?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
He's the most prolific. He has social impact. He's hilarious and silly, and he's a sweetheart of a person, too. So you have to think of him. But then I go with sheer RPMs. I got to go with Joey Diaz. Joey Diaz, I knew it, yeah. Sheer RPMs where you just like... How many nights were we in the back of the Comedy Store? We couldn't even talk. You couldn't breathe. You're not even laughing anymore.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Who's going to investigate real threats? The real world exists. As much as you want to pretend that we can all go kumbaya tomorrow if we all just lay down our arms, no. There's people that are 48 years old and dedicated to crime. They've dedicated a crime in Guatemala, and now they're here. And now they're selling fentanyl, and they're not going to stop. They don't give a fuck.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And they're on EBT cards where you're getting money from the government for free every month because you're in a sanctuary city, and you get free food, and you're a criminal. And then one of them, like two of them, assaulted cops in New York City and then got out, got free. No cash bail. No cash bail. You just get out.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
They assaulted cops, and then they're on the street giving the Tupac to the camera. Have you ever seen that? No. What? First of all, we've got to show you the Kamala Harris lady. Do you got the Kamala Harris lady? I can't find it at all. You can't find it? They probably scrubbed it from the internet. She's being shamed. I'm not really sure what to look for.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You're putting a tinfoil hat on my head right now. That's how I'm feeling. We don't have to show it. Because we've already showed it a bunch of times. It's... How you would do it if you wanted to destroy America. I'm not saying – so the question becomes like how much of it is our own folly? How much of it is just natural human behavior?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
How much of it is like the right wants law and order so we don't want law and order? The right wants to punish prisoners. We want to – no, that's – it's racist. Racism. It's like – What is it?
The Joe Rogan Experience

Titans. Yeah. But also, I feel like it's manipulated as well, and maybe more so than anything else. I feel like it's manipulated. And again, if you wanted to turn us into China, and what I mean by that is a country that's Facial recognition everywhere, social credit score system that's attached to all of your banking, your ability to travel, everything you do.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
If you make anything online that's against the government, you could be disappeared. You could be locked up. You could be made a political prisoner. You know, this is – It felt like we were heading that way. Yeah. I think this is something that – I think it was Metzger that said this. No. It was Duncan that said this about Ukraine and Russia.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
He was like, do you realize like the Ukrainians that we're killing or that rather the Russians – that we're killing by sending over arms and money to fund the Ukrainians. Not saying that we shouldn't do this, but he's saying that a lot of those guys are being forced to go to the front line, and a lot of those guys are prisoners who get released in order to fight.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So what if you're a prisoner because you wrote a bad tweet against Putin, and they lock you up, and then all of a sudden Ukrainians are killing you with American weapons? Because you tweeted bad against Putin. So it's Putin's way of eliminating any dissent. And they don't even arrest that many people online for doing things online in comparison to the UK.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
The UK is getting in on it full steam ahead. The UK is arresting people for anything that makes people uncomfortable online. They show up at your house and just fucking arrest you. How many people have been arrested in the UK for social media posts? in the last year. It's going to blow your mind. It's going to blow your mind.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
This is just posts on social media like, you know, we need to send these illegal immigrants back. Saying shit like that. Yeah. You get arrested. Arrested. Hate crime. Even if I'm joking? Even if maybe I'm just fucking having a— There's no jokes. Wow. No jokes online anymore. Not in the U.K.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Not only that, but the guy who's the head of the U.K., they're saying now that they could potentially arrest Americans who have posted things online when they visit the U.K., Yeah, I was reading a post about this. Like, this law could potentially be used in this way.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You're just wheezing. Everybody's just wheezing. You're making wheezing noises and slapping things.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
That if you are a person in America and you're posting horrible shit about the UK government or the immigrant problem or whatever they have, contacts find available information, exact figures 2025, not fully competent, 2023. In 2023, 12,183 arrests were made across 37 police forces in the UK under Section 127 of the Communications Act.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
2003 in Section 1 of the Malicious Communications Act in 1988, equating to about 33 arrests per day. Laws cover sending grossly offensive, indecent, obscene, or menacing messages via electronic communication networks, which includes social media posts and also DMs. DMs. So people get arrested for horrible DMs that nobody gets to see other than the friend that you're sending it to, supposedly.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Right. Okay, that's cute. It's still... horrifying, because what you're doing is scaring people into compliance. They don't want to be arrested again, and they certainly don't want to risk being prosecuted. But they're forcing people to censor themselves.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Well, no, they do have a law. They don't have freedom of speech the way we have in America. So they do have these hate speech laws. So they are breaking a law. But the question is, should that law exist? And I say, no, no, that law should not exist. You shouldn't be able to put someone in a cage for saying, and some of them are not that offensive. Some of them are pretty fucking calm.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Oh, only 1,119 sentences occurred for these offenses. Okay, but the problem is now go look at how many people were arrested in Russia. for social media posts. It's drastically less. But we think of Russia as being the country that censors people. China and Russia, that's what you think. Which they do. You can't criticize Putin. You can't go balls out. You're risking your life.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You're in real trouble. Not excusing that. But what they're doing in the U.K. is at a higher level of magnitude. I mean, maybe they're not torturing people and sending them to the front line of Ukraine. but they are putting the fear of being arrested in people if you say something that they don't want you to say on social media. The jump from 2016 to 2020 is crazy. Look at Russia. 2023, 54 people.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So in the time where 12,000 people were arrested in the UK, 54 people were imprisoned for online hate speech in Russia. But this also says this information isn't very... Russia's 100% accurate with their... Easy to find. Shut up, Jamie. From 2010 to 2024, Novaya Gazeta Europe reported over 30,000 criminal and administrative cases related to social media posts.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
with about 1,200 being criminal cases. So they had 1,200 criminal cases. Common charges include extremism, inciting hatred, or insulting state symbols. That's where it gets sketchy. I can't even make fun of the flag or a monument? I can't make fun of it? Nope. Insulting. Making fun is insulting. There's no room for humor in a communist country. UK sucks, dude.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
But it's not, you know, Russia's not communist, really, anymore.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
it's really um it's a military dictatorship essentially i mean putin was the president and he could only do a certain amount of time and then he stopped being the president he's like fucking i'm the president again and then no one's gonna win going against him they have elections but what are you doing that guys wind up getting poisoned and shot and they're like it's old school yeah he's fucking it's old school he's running that place it's his that's his you're not taking over
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, he could kill. There's some magic to that thing. I think that's hypnosis. I've always thought that. For a long time, at least. I'm like, what is happening to me when someone's on stage and they're killing? You know, like when Shane's on fire. What is happening to me? I think I'm, like, locked in with their mind. I don't think it's as simple as I'm watching a show or something like that.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, he's a killer. He's a former KGB killer. Like the real deal, he's a judo black belt. He's a fucking, he's a bad man. And he runs that country. and they arrest less people. Yeah, what the fuck is going on in the UK? They're leaning into the same direction that I was talking about that was scaring me about America. I feel like there's a plot. There's a plot to diminish the fabric of society.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Like, if you want... Okay. Let's just look at the whole overall world and is it fair? It's definitely not fair. Clearly there's a reason why these people in these third world countries want to come to Europe and why they want to come to America because it's better here and it's better there and they want a better life. I get it. But why are they fleeing where they came from?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Well, we bombed the shit out of those places. We bombed the shit out of those places. We drone bombed them. We overthrew democratically elected governments with coups. There's a lot of instability that's caused by us. We're like, well, it's our fault. We've got to take these people in.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I think instead of fucking up this one country by letting everybody come in and drag it down to a third world country, I think a better solution is figure out a way to prop up these other countries the same way. I mean, in a simplistic version of it, like if you want everything for yourself, you're selfish, but you want everything for all your boys too. And everybody, everybody gets better. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
The whole world gets better. So instead of like shipping off jobs to Mexico where they get a dollar a day, Maybe pay them real money. Pay them what you're supposed to be paying them. Maybe give them health care. Maybe if you are an American citizen and you want to hire someone to do something, you have to hire someone under the same structure of ethics that we agree to in the United States.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Period. Yes. Period. For all humans all over the world. And if the money translates lower because the American dollar is worth more, okay. But balance it out. Make it that they can afford food, they can afford housing, they can afford health care. Make laws. Agreed. And then all of a sudden you prop up the whole world.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And the whole world stops having third world countries, including in the United States. Like why do we still have ghettos? Why have we put all this money into funding all these different things with, like, USAID all over the world? And the south side of Chicago has the same amount of murders every year, if not more. More. Every year. Every year. Baltimore, same place. We had a cop-in.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Once way back in the day that he was a cop in Baltimore. And while they were working one day, he found a rap sheet, like a rest sheet of all these different crimes that were committed in all these different areas from like the 1970s. And it was all the same shit that's happening today. And he realized, like, oh, my God, it's never going to end. Like, you're never going to fix this.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's all the same problems in the same areas and nothing's being done. The same drug arrests, the same violence, the same this, the same that. All in the same places. And all in these areas, mysteriously, all in these same areas that had been redlined during the Jim Crow era where black people couldn't buy houses where the white neighborhoods are. They had to buy houses in one area.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And those areas are fucked. And no one's corrected it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I think it's convenient to ignore people that you're not going to profit from. You know, if you are investing a bunch of money in green energy or you're investing a bunch of money in whatever stupid shit you're doing with windmills, like someone's making money. There's a lot of people making money. There's money being exchanged.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Because I love, like, watching a funny movie, you know, Tropic Thunder or something like that. I love laughing watching funny movies. But I don't feel the same way I feel when a guy is in front of me on stage doing stand-up. And I think as great as specials are, they're like 60 to 70% of being there live. Always. Because I think there's something about being there live that's like, it's hypnosis.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
If you're fixing south side of Chicago, if you're like creating community centers and you're like – robust education and counseling and providing mentorship and paths to jobs and giving people an opportunity to make real money that's enticing so they don't want to sell drugs or kill people. How are you making money doing that? You're not. And so people don't do it. It's that simple.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Exactly. But it would take time. I guess you're right. It's not a direct profit. It would take generations. But there's no effort being done to it. So this guy that's seeing these crimes that were committed in the same area in Baltimore in the 1970s, and this is in the 2000s, he's seeing the same shit. He's like, this is crazy. This is the real systemic racism. This is the real problem. It's not...
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's not like black people can't make it in America. No, no, no, no, no. It's like there's an echo of past atrocities that exists in these pockets that's not being addressed. It's never been healed.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's never been healed. And there's a convenience in allowing it to stay that way. Like you can count on them to vote a certain way if you keep giving them welfare, if you keep giving them food stamps. The people that want that are always the Democrats. So those people are always going to vote Democrat for you.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So it's within your best interest to not make them like conservative Republicans or like very disciplined and work real hard. Yeah. Get to the gym at 4.30 before they show up at work at 7 and we're going to kick some ass and make some fucking money, Wilson. You know? You don't want that. It's convenient because then they'll vote for you every time.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
As soon as they start making money and realize, like, what is the government spending my fucking taxes on?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Hippies that I know became Republicans after they started making money.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
yeah yeah yeah because 50 of your money and you're living in a shitty you're like wait i don't hold on what we're letting criminals out you're like what is happening why does my car keep getting broken into like what do you do why are there people camped in front of my fucking house i gave you 50 of my money yeah this is crazy dylan has a great bit about it about uh the california offering tax uh breaks for people that take a homeless person into their house yeah he's the man dude
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's one of the clips that he put up because he's got a new special that's out now Yeah that he filmed at the mothership, but it's it's so funny and so true It's like they're just trying to destroy society.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
What better way to destroy your house You have a wife and child what better way to destroy your house than to bring some fentanyl addict in This is how you're gonna create more chaos and then California's trying to pass a new law This is being proposed where if someone breaks into your house and threatens your life. You're not allowed to shoot them in your house
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Imagine someone breaks into your house and is trying to get you, has a knife coming towards you. You're not allowed to kill them. What am I allowed to do? You're supposed to run away. This hasn't passed yet, but... There's no way it can't. That doesn't even. It's so crazy, dude. It's so crazy. It's so crazy.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's almost like they're trying to destroy people's confidence in law enforcement, confidence in community, feeling of being safe, ramp up everybody's level of anxiety, and then offer a solution. And the solution is to disarm everybody. The solution is to clamp down further and further on gun laws, make it very difficult to have a gun. You can't have magazines more than 10 rounds.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You can't concealed carry. You can't do this. You can't do that. If you have it in your car, you have to have the bullets in the trunk and the pistol is supposed to be locked up. There's all these crazy laws that are just slowly but surely trying to take away your... And you can say, no, those laws are to keep people from road rage and shootings. Criminals commit crime.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Laws don't stop criminals from breaking laws. Laws keep law-abiding people from protecting themselves. That's damn. That's the fact that's the fact criminals gonna do it anyway. They the guns illegal the fucking the Identification number I've been sawed off Like you said they've been driven at that point if I'm at that point yeah, there is no Rule that's gonna stop me.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
There's no rule have you ever seen that show trafficked? mm-hmm, this is a amazing show called trafficked and They went down to L.A. and they followed these rogue cops who are bringing guns into Mexico and selling them. Yeah. That's one of the episodes. That's fucking crazy. Yeah, Mariana Benzela. She's amazing. She's been in the podcast a few times. She's brilliant. It's fearless, this lady.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
There's something going on where that person's making me think the way they think.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
She went to Colombia into the jungle where they were making coke and then went with the mules, hiked it out with backpacks full of coke. They had backpacks and she followed them and hiked it out. They showed her how they make the coke, where they make the coke.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Oh, interesting. This is where it's scratched out. Scratched out part says the bill would eliminate certain circumstances under which homicide is justifiable, including amongst others, in defense of a habitation or property.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
The bill would additionally clarify circumstances in which homicide is not justifiable, including among others, when a person uses more force than necessary to defend against a danger. What does that mean? That means you shoot a guy more than once. I got to know he's down. Right, but you killed him instead of just shooting him. That's what they're saying.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
There's nothing funnier than when your friends pull you aside to complain about a girl that's like putting the cuffs on them. It's the best.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
This bill is like not understanding fight or flight and violence and the chaos of you realizing your life is in great danger. Or your family's life. You just want to shoot that person.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Okay. The bill would eliminate that provision. The bill would also specify certain circumstances in which homicide is not justifiable, including when a person was outside their habitation or property and did not retreat when they could have safely done so, when a person used more force than a reasonable person would. So that right there, wasn't that?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
A person was outside their habitation or property and did not retreat... when they could have safely done so. Meaning if someone's breaking into your house, you're on the outside of the house, you don't go into the house to confront them. You retreat. You're supposed to retreat.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
That's a good question. This rule already is like, well, this doesn't make sense.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Exactly, you're living in this person's imagination, and this person's work, right? Because they set this set up, and they danced it around their head, and they wrote it down on paper, or... That's the other interesting thing about what we do. There's no one way to do it. I always say my way to do it, but I don't think Bill writes shit down. I think he keeps it all in his head.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
But no, but Jamie, you would do in the context of the sentence. This bill would also specify certain circumstances in which homicide is not justifiable, including when a person was outside their habitation or property. But it's not like it's not. If you're outside, it's saying you have to try to retreat. Right, right, right. But what if someone's in your home? That doesn't clarify that.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Right. But the certain circumstances is listed, including when a person was outside. I'm just saying he brought up a situation. Jamie, it's obvious. It's obvious. I'm just saying. I read. I'm reading. This is not necessary. And did not retreat when they could have safely done so. When a person used more force than a reasonable person. That's so subjective. You don't know. I don't know.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
That's not a real thing. What about Tim Kennedy? Is he reasonable? That's not a reason I was going to fuck. What about Jocko? Is Jocko reasonable? Yeah. But people have to keep their cool. What did you say, Jamie? That's when you win a good jury, too. Good luck. I'm just saying. Why would you count on that?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Don't you? If I was a judge, I'd say you're argumentative. However, the bill would specify that homicide is justifiable if the initial aggressor actually and in good faith tried to stop fighting and indicated they wanted to and tried to stop fighting as specified or in cases of mutual combat, the initial aggressor gave the opponent an opportunity to stop fighting.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So if someone starts fucking you up and then gives you an opportunity to stop fighting and you don't, you keep fighting them and kill them. But they've already started fighting with you. You're in danger zone. To be reasonable while your life is in danger is to open yourself up to getting fucked up. Because he's like, no, no, come on, man. It was like, bang, motherfucker.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And then you're out cold. Like, you've already engaged in violence. It's so subjective whether or not you should stop or not stop. Like, when you should stop is when that person's 100% incapacitated. And that might mean kill them if you don't know what's going to stop them.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
If you have a gun and someone is charging at you with a fucking machete and you bang, bang, bang while they're still alive and that winds up killing them. you could have just shot them once. You could be in front of a jury and they could say, you could have stopped with the first bullet.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And then you have a coroner says, yes, the first bullet was fatal or yes, the first bullet would have stopped him, but he shot him two additional times. Like now you're in jail. Now you're in jail because you were terrified of your life and you thought you were going to die and you did something in a split moment where you're not even thinking straight. Like you're... Yeah, dude.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
To ask an accountant to keep his shit together in a... Look, if you ask a Navy SEAL to keep his shit together, they're probably like, oh, finally, someone broke into my house. Oh, this motherfucker's going to... Some guy actually did try to break into Tim Kennedy's house and he didn't even hurt the guy. He just said... You made a giant mistake. Came out with a gun and got rid of the guy.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Where you're like, oh, brother. You've seen the Joe Schilling one, right?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's so quick. Dude tried to get him to flinch. Yeah, he jumped at him. Jumped at him. And he just ding, ding, ding. The wrong dude. You mean, that's karma. Yeah. That's almost like, those things, like, almost make me feel like we're in a simulation. Like, that's supposed to happen in that order, you know?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Like, when someone just hits a level of douchiness, and you're supposed to run into Joe Schilling. Yeah. That's the perfect karmic response to, like, a negative and a positive and a thing, you know, like, an in and an out. We just had... I just feel like we have to be really careful in this country that we don't get more divided by all this fucking political chaos that we're experiencing.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
We've got to be real careful as human beings that we don't fall prey to that. This is not smart for anybody. No, dude. It's not smart. There's so much unnecessary conflict.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah. It's insane. That's the Jay-Z thing, too, right? Jay-Z kept it all in his head.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And then also, like, if you don't feel for people that walked here with their babies because they just want to get a job as a landscaper. Let them have it. But how do you know? You know, I think the process for getting people in should be better. But it's also, it's like... How many can we support? What kind of a strain is this on Social Security? What kind of a strain is this on Medicare?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And is there a way to make where they're from better? And wouldn't that increase revenues? If all of a sudden you had another country right next door that's buying and trading and making tons of money, wouldn't that be better for everybody? If they stopped being a third world country and became a first world country, wouldn't that be super beneficial? Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
This is what you got to realize when it comes to politicians. Most of them are already dead or on their way. Unless you're J.D. Vance. He's really young. Tulsi Gabbard's young. Yeah, Tulsi's the shit. Most of these people, when you're in office, like Trump is almost 80. Biden, did you see what Biden said yesterday? What did he say? Oh, man. Jamie, did you see it? Nope.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Out of nowhere. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They're letting him talk. And I'm like, who's letting him talk? This is crazy. Here, I'll send you this, Jamie. It's so silly. He's fucking gone, bro. He's gone. They let him talk. They just let him get out in the open and put a microphone in front of his face. But I guess, like, as a former president, you can kind of request. Speak my mind.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Nas. Nas wrote everything down. You can't write rewind in your head. No, you can't. No. It's a story backwards. It's a story backwards. It's another level. That's another level. That's like him pulling his dick out and just like.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
One day just had just enough mixture. They filled him up with enough peptides. Got a little pep in his step. Feeling good. Give me some volume and go full screen because you got to see his face. And I had never seen.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I hope he does more. We should have him at the mothership. Yeah, we got him. Let him go up. Give him 10.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
He was fired up. He was feeling good. They got him on a good dose. He had a nice nap. He had a good nap. Nice nap. But it's crazy to let him do that because now we know he wasn't really running the country.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Slapping that shit on the table right that song is we want to say like writing like I challenge anybody in the world Who's got a better written song than Rewind from Nas? That's a great take I would agree with that.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
We used to think he was actually running the country. Now they're like, no, he didn't even see those executive orders. That was all auto... You didn't even sign those things. It is crazy how old they are. That's a weird thing. That auto-pen's a weird thing. How lazy are you, bitch? How many things are you signing that you have to auto-pen things? That's crazy that you can auto-pen.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You read it, you go over it, you make sure it's right, and you sign it. What the fuck are you doing? What are we paying? I don't understand shit, man. What the fuck are we doing? What are we doing? How are you auto-pending shit? That's the crazy thing about all those pardons. How many pardons did he have? I think he had 9,000 pardons, and it was all auto-penned.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So it's like everybody was like, if I had imagined, like worst-case scenario, I'm not assuming or accusing anybody doing this, but I would imagine if you got a hold of that auto-penn, be like, yo, yo, yo, I got the auto-penn. Like, uh... Who needs? All the boys is out. I need money. I'm trying to get rich. And you're trying to get free. And let's get something rolling. Just hit that button.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
First of all, if you can't be tried because they decide that you're mentally incapable of standing trial. That's what they said about him. They were going to try him on some classified documents case. They said the judge ruled that he was incapable of standing trial while he was running for president for the second term.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
While he was running for president, they were saying he's incapable of standing trial. So if we're saying that there's something wrong with him cognitively, but we're still allowing him to give people pardons? If he's not sane enough, if he's not there enough... To stand trial. To defend himself. How could he be there enough to decide whether or not someone deserves a pardon? That seems insane.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
There's no way. If you have all the time in the world, how are you going over 9,000 cases?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's insane backwards It's it's magic. It's like a magic song. Yeah, it's so and it's and while you're watching you like you're appreciating the fact that he pulled it off and
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's just, is that shit for sale? Pardons are crazy anyway. You just let somebody out of jail because you're the king. I'm the king. Fucking fuck that trial. Yeah. Fuck that jury. I like that guy. You're free, bro. I don't mind it. Yeah. That's crazy power. Let people out of jail. You know? In mass numbers. What was the total? Okay. Because 9,000. But 6,500, I agree with.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
That's the craziest shit, that there were people in Colorado that were in jail for selling marijuana, looking out the window of their prison to marijuana dealerships. selling marijuana legally. And nice packaging. Yeah. Nice. With barcodes on it. Little cartoon characters smiling when they're high on them. Snoop Dogg on the cover of a bag. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
See, that's the good thing about progressive governments, right? Progressive governments like Colorado, they realize that people's right to
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
experiment with all kinds of different things including alcohol but also like you should have the freedom to take things you should have the freedom to explore your own consciousness and colorado agreed with that real early you know that's the good thing about progressive governments and that's the bad thing about a lot of conservative governments they want to stop you from doing that you know they want to prosecute people for that fucking grass that dirty do you where's your dope
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah. That is scary. I don't think they think that way, though. 8,000. A record-setting number includes a collective act of over 6,500 individuals for marijuana possession convictions. So it's really not like he has more than anybody else. Yeah, Washington did it. Yeah, it looks like more than everybody else because it's just 6,500. He actually only released 1,500 then.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You know, like while you're listening, you're appreciating the fact that he pulled off this song backwards.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So even then, 2,500, not pretty normal. Yeah. Like how many did Obama did? Almost 2,000. What about Trump?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
How come Trump didn't free Joe Exotic? Let him go. Put the Tiger King out there. Tiger King 3. We need it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Oh, only 237. That's not a lot. Oh, so the new one, when he came back, he pardoned 1,500 individuals connected to the general. They keep saying capital riots. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Sitting in his fucking bathtub with all these silver coins.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah. How many did George Washington have? A lot, right? 1,700, is that what it said?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Think about that. That is pretty crazy. I'll tell you what, my kids are addicted to it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
The Departed might be three. You just killed all your credibility. You took Departed over Apocalypse Now. Oh, Apocalypse Now. That's great. How dare you take Departed over Apocalypse Now? I love Apocalypse Now.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
That's like the law, that law of knowing when it's too much. Like he could have just shot over him. Could have. The other guy shot over him.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
If I could go back and talk to Hamilton, I'd give him the money, man.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
If you can keep this relationship going, it's beneficial to everybody involved. You just need a little money. Oh, okay. You're not even mad? Yeah. And you got the money. You're Hamilton. What the fuck is he doing? Spend that money. Spend them fun coupons.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
They were all monsters. They were all fucking slaves. They were all slaves. They were all slaves. That's what's the craziest thing. The moral high ground of the beginning of this country. We were getting away from these evil. We got slaves! What are you saying? Everybody's a monster.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It's like everywhere you go, there's hypocrisy. You know? Like, did you ever see that thing when Don Lemon was talking to this lady about reparations for slavery? Did you ever see that thing? No. Oh, my God. Please find this. Don Lemon is talking to this British lady about reparations for slavery, and she lays out the beginnings of slavery to Don Lemon.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And you see Don Lemon's dumb ass like, oh, very interesting. Watch this. He didn't know. It's just he was saying something that, you know, there should be reparations for slavery. I think it's a political talking point at this point, Tom. I think. There's people that still think that people today should get money because their ancestors were slaves. I totally understand that argument.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
He's a special talent. Yeah, I've never seen anything like that. Yeah, he's very special. And it's also like you've got to realize he's doing these jokes in front of 16,000 people for the first time. He's got a new joke, and he's busting it out in front of 16,000 people about their area. Yes. Bro, that shit he did in Hawaii about the chickens being so confident. Oh, my God.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, and he knew he had no history in his mind. He's like scouring his mind for an argument. Like, yeah, I'm going to check out on this one right here.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
The producers in his ear, wrap it up, Don. Wrap it up. Wrap it up. We're going to commercial. We're going to Pfizer.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, that's the dirty thing about it. It's like people were monsters. Yeah, dude. Irish were slaves forever. People were indentured servants. They're brought over here. People have been monsters forever. And instead of doing that now, now they're picking fruit, picking lettuce with no health care. For $2. Yeah, and we're shipping jobs over to there. So they work in these factories.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
They're working 16 hours a day for $1 an hour or $1 a day sometimes. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
$2 an hour. His expectations were very low. Yeah. That's the reality when people like Bernie Sanders talk about oligarchs. If you're going to have halves... Like extreme haves, just by the nature of the world, you're going to have have-nots. And the disparity between haves and have-nots is off the charts. And it's probably only going to get bigger. That's what's really kind of scary.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
With AI and the ability to generate wealth and what you're going to be able to figure out and do and the different ways that people are going to be able to manipulate markets and dominate certain industries with AI, I think the have and have-nots. And then you're going to have also automation, which takes over everything. Everything. So all these jobs.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Bro, I was just driving. Have you ever, like, we're not going to be driving much longer, dude.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah, check this out. I'm going to share this with you, Jamie. I did this yesterday in my car. My car just drives itself, dog. It just drives itself. If you have a Tesla, if I put in my address, I go, I press these buttons, and it just takes off. It stops at red lights. It changes lanes. It slows down when the traffic slows down, speeds up when the traffic speeds up.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You could completely check out if you wanted to. Totally check out. You could totally check out. I don't do it. I keep my hand near it. I'm still freaked out.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Yeah. It also just feels weird, but it does it. You got the video? And it does it well, too?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Oh, does it show things on the screen? On my screen. Oh, how dare you? Did I fuck up?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
What does it show, like my address? No, it shows stuff that I don't want shown on the screen. Oh, I see. Okay, here it is. Check this out. This is me in the car yesterday. I don't like to do it all the time, but every now and again... It's pretty wild. It changes lanes. It hits the blinkers. See, look, it sees all those cars. That screen, it's a representative of all the cars.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It knows where all the cars are. Look, it's changing lanes. It hits the blinker and changes lanes to get around these trucks. It's the future. Why it's over how wild is that it shows you on the screen on the front where your dashboard is? It shows you all the cars around you all of them. It keeps track of them It knows how fast they're going see that guy passed me on the left.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It shows that Why he's flying by you so it's like oh, you know It knew the speed and rate that he was going and he knew that there was an open lane So it hit the blinkers and it changed lanes and it knows his people behind me knows his people to the right of me and It stops at red lights, dude, and then speeds up again, stops at stop signs.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
And then cut to, it's a foreign bit later that night. And it's like, this guy is incredible. And that's another example. Like, what is he doing? How is he doing that to that crowd with those great jokes? Like, he's locking those people in. You're letting him think for you. Like, come on, man. Think for me. Let me have a good time and think for me.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
It sees the cars to the left and cars to the right, knows when to go. And you can just kind of check out. You just hold your hand like this, think about your life. Have the robot drive you around. That is just going to be everywhere. Everyone's going to be driving in these robot taxis. You're not going to own a car. This is what the World Economic Forum wants.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
You will own nothing and you'll be happy. You'll be like that man who has $2 an hour and so happy. All your food will be free. You don't need a job. That's where the have and have nots get sketchy because when automation takes over everything, don't worry. We'll give you universal basic income. And so they give universal basic income to everybody.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
So everybody is reliant 100 percent on the government now. And then there's people that own all the electric taxi companies and own all the computer factories and own all the AI companies and –
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Those are the oligarchs. Those are the haves. And the haves never want to give that up. They always want more and more and more. They always want to keep winning that game. They want to stack money. They want to be the first trillionaire. They want to just keep stacking.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
That's it, man. It's a natural human dominator instinct. It's a tribal dominator instinct. And it's just applied to fiat currency and Bitcoin and financial power and influence. And they want to control social media. We're going to give everybody a vaccine.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
They're going to do it with everything. And then they're going to try to pass legislation to stop driving. You shouldn't be able to drive because their money is in driving you around. Why should you be able to drive? You're dangerous. You cause accidents. Statistically, humans cause all these accidents. You drink? Humans do this? Bro, that's how they can get you.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
That's why they're saying, you know, we don't eat beef. Cows are destroying the environment. Cows are responsible for climate change. And what a convenient thing I have here. My plant-based meals. My plant-based burgers. You need unstoppable meat.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
They're eating Siberian tiger loin. They're having a good time carving up some rhino steaks. They're a bunch of monsters. You know the whole market for rhino horns? Yeah. You know what that market's for? What? It's rich people that want to get off on the fact that they're drinking tea from an endangered species. Rhino horns, that's what they're valuable for. That's why people are killing people.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
They're killing people so that they can kill the rhinos. They can cut their horns off so they could sell them to Asia. Where very wealthy people get off on the fact that they're drinking rhino horn tea. And they think it makes your dick hard.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Which is hilarious. Yeah. You know about Viagra, bitch? Have you heard of Blue Chew? What are you talking about? It's so stupid. But there's way better ways. You don't have to kill a rhino. But that's not the point. The point is they want to kill the rhino so that they get this forbidden thing. We're responsible for extinction here as we sip this tea. That's how dark people get.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
That's like the type of people that want exclusive things. That's that.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
I want to watch people. Darkness, man. That's darkness. That's real human beings will do that. They will drink rhino horn tea. That's the only market for rhino horns. They're not valuable. It's not like tusks like elephant tusks are made out of ivory and ivory is very valuable and they use it for all kinds of different things. They always used to use it for ornaments.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
They used to make pool balls out of ivory. And then they stopped allowing people to sell ivory. And then you could only buy like pre-ban ivory in America. And but that makes sense because you're killing an animal for this one thing that's a commodity and it's fucked up. But the rhino horn don't even make sense. Like you're killing an animal just so you could drink the tea.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
He keeps getting better. He was good when I first saw him a few years back, but man, he just keeps getting better. Well, like you said earlier, to see people do different hours. You know what else he did too, though? People forget he was like the first guy to really capitalize on the pandemic. with his videos, where he essentially created a completely new kind of stand-up, right?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
That's crazy, and they're almost extinct. Also, to kill such a creature. Wow, this is a fucking animal, dude. A crazy looking creature, man. It doesn't look like it belongs in this time. It looks like it's from the dinosaur days. I read this thing yesterday about, you ever heard of the bear that's called the boss? Oh, yeah, that one bear that's got, like, thousands of kids? Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Run it back, you bitch-ass train. I'm going to knock this motherfucker off the tracks this time.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2306 - Deric Poston
Bears eat bears. That's real common. Yeah, they eat cubs. It's real dark. A friend of mine saw it. He saw my friend Jonathan up in Alberta. He saw a bear and the sow and the boar were fighting. So males, the boar, females, the sow. They were fighting because the bear, the male was trying to kill the cubs. And so the female is trying to fight him off. And eventually she can't fight him off.
