Comedian Joe Rogan joins me on the road to talk about his stand up comedy career and what it's like being a stand up comedian. We talk about how he got started in comedy and how he's come a long way in a short period of time. He also talks about his new show on Comedy Central, "Shiny Happy Jihad" and why he thinks stand up should be more of an art form than it is a career. We also discuss his new movie "Shazam" and how it compares to the original Shazam and why it's better than it was when he first started doing stand up. We also talk about the importance of having a good relationship with your fans and how important it is to have a good attitude about what you do and what you're doing it for.

00:02:51.000So, I think, you know, but that's, that one I consider like that's a moment in time.
00:02:56.000Like that, at least it was better than the stuff that I had before, you know.
00:02:59.000My first CD I liked some of the bits, but it's like my delivery was kind of fucked up back then.
00:03:04.000But now I looked at it, you know, I look at the stuff that's out now, it's like, you know, every now and then someone can like videotape something, like before.
00:03:13.000You know, like, you'll videotape me just talking shit on stage, and then, you know, it'll become a bit somewhere down the line.
00:03:21.000But, you know, by the time someone, if I go to a show somewhere, if they're a fan and they download my shit, they might have already seen the premise.
00:03:32.000You could look at it that it hurts you, but I don't think it does.
00:03:36.000I think having stuff out on the internet that people enjoy is always good.
00:03:40.000That's the big problem though with everything like now, like TV shows, like Hulu and stuff like that.
00:03:44.000They want to share it, they want to do that concept, but they also need to make a profit from it, which is kind of interesting how they have to go about doing it.
00:03:52.000Yeah, I think we're experiencing a whole new model.
00:03:56.000And I think your attitude about how your fans get your stuff is very important.
00:04:03.000It's very important because it represents how you feel as a performer and what you feel the relationship that you have with the audience is.
00:04:11.000And if I was this greedy dude that was like, fuck them, they gotta fucking pay, I want my fucking money.
00:04:57.000People are going to come to see your shows.
00:04:58.000They're going to buy DVDs if they have the money.
00:05:01.000If they have the money, like, if I, like, there's a band that I really like, I'll download their shit online, like, on iTunes, and then I'll buy a CD2 to play in my car.
00:06:30.000He was talking about 3D models that they can make with these.
00:06:33.000But they're going to get to a point, and it's not that far off, where you, say if your mouse breaks, you're going to be able to go to this computer printer thing And you're going to be able to put in the combinations or whatever the fuck you have to say to get a mouse or download a mouse program.
00:06:49.000And a mouse is going to fucking appear.
00:06:51.000I mean, you're really going to be able to make things with a printer.
00:06:54.000You know, and you remember the first printers that were old and clumsy and fucked up and slow, you know, and the ink wasn't that good.
00:08:55.000First they wipe this coat and they sit there and they have to stroke it for like an hour and that does under veins so it looks like the veins underneath the skin.
00:09:37.000And then when they make a cast, like if they have fucking Ron Jeremy come in there and they're like, alright, we're going to do a chubby dildo this week.
00:09:43.000They have to put his dick in this tube, almost like when you ever see a horse, they're trying to get sperm from a horse to make babies or something like that.
00:09:52.000They have to jack it off into this tube.
00:09:54.000And they had the same thing with how they have to sit there with this plaster, and he can't touch it, and he has to stay hard for five minutes.
00:10:27.000And then with the cast, they just have to like put plaster in your fucking vagina and just fucking sit there for five minutes and they pull out this thing and then they don't just play paste hair on it.
00:10:38.000They actually have to sew with a thread and needle every single hair on the pussy.
00:11:20.000That would be weird, though, because that's what was after in this video I saw, that the porn star that did it, there was a box of his dicks, and he comes up and goes, That's hilarious.
00:11:29.000That's my dick times 500. That's so crazy.
00:12:43.000I mean, it's just amazing that a cult can have so much power in 2010 and that nobody wants to call it a cult.
00:12:51.000And everybody wants to pretend that there's something sacred about it because it's been around forever.
00:12:55.000Like, it's the craziest, most fucked up idea ever.
00:13:00.000There was a big discussion about it on our message board and one of the most interesting arguments was So people were saying, you're discounting all the positive work that the Catholic Church does.
00:13:11.000But I'm saying anything positive they do, will they do charities?
00:13:15.000That's them doing things outside of religion.
00:13:18.000That doesn't have anything to do with the fucking religion.
00:13:20.000That's just people doing charitable things.
00:13:23.000That does not make up for kid fucking.
00:13:25.000That does not make up for living a life filled with guilt so that they can control you and keeping you down like a little bitch terrified about every fucking thing you do because you're going to burn in hell.
00:13:35.000And anybody who's ever been to Catholic school knows that.
00:15:38.000I mean, it's just that whole idea as a philosophy is the worst idea possible.
00:15:45.000That means you're putting the control of your consciousness, you're putting your trust in the wisdom of someone who lives in a cult of kid fuckers.
00:18:45.000If you had some sort of a logical two-dimensional life, like a binary life, like something you could read out on a piece of paper, if that was life...
00:18:52.000And that life was introduced to this life right here.
00:18:55.000You would go, this life is psychedelic.
00:20:56.000You know, I have my own life that I can tell you honestly what I've learned from my experiences and things that I've read that other people have researched, but what do I really know about what the fuck this is and what's next?
00:23:39.000At best, we exist really well in small tribes.
00:23:45.000But I think when people are in small tribes, those small tribes are so important to stay alive.
00:23:50.000These people have this intense bond of family.
00:23:52.000And I think what happened with human beings is we went from small tribes to gigantic countries so fast, you know, over the course of just a few thousand years.
00:24:35.000I think that's why so many people are depressed.
00:24:38.000I think people are depressed because the energy in their life is imbalanced because they don't have enough love And companionship in their life.
00:24:51.000It's like if you were on a plane and you hear a screaming kid right next to you and you're trying to sleep.
00:24:57.000Now, it might be different from you because you have kids now, but in the old days, you want to just fucking knock the kid out or something.
00:26:45.000They're really hating that you're excited.
00:26:47.000You know, it's when, you see, it gets tricky not when you praise an object, but when you start shitting on, like, the Kindle and, fuck, the Kindle's dead!
00:27:41.000It's so funny because if you were forced to live your life in front of a computer, And then someone allowed you to go outside, you'd be so happy to go outside.
00:27:49.000It's because we're forced to live in reality that the computer life seems so much more interesting.
00:27:54.000It seems more like I'm looking for something.
00:27:59.000That's why Google is one of my favorite websites, because I'm searching for something.
00:28:41.000As a comedian, though, there's never been a better time to be able to promote your gigs.
00:28:45.000It's so much better than it's ever been before because, you know, you can get information out there and, you know, you can develop like a whole network of your fans, you know, and on your Twitter page and your message board and people get to know you, like the real you.
00:29:19.000Now you could, you know, I was telling Ari, like, Ari, who's a very funny guy, sometimes has a hard time getting gigs on the road.
00:29:26.000And I was saying, you should put together something, you know, where you do your best bits that you've ever done and throw them up on YouTube.
00:29:34.000Because he has a lot of bits that he doesn't even do anymore because he's got new bits.
00:29:37.000And I'm like, but you don't have those old bits, like, in a video.
00:29:40.000You should make a video of your shit, man.
00:33:47.000I am so fascinated by the idea that they're trying to recreate the conditions right after the Big Bang and that's what they're looking for and that's why they're doing this.
00:33:57.000It's probably something weird that it would trickle down to like storage of power, like battery life and stuff.
00:34:19.000I mean, when things get really wonky is when they really figure out how to crack time.
00:34:25.000When they figure out how to travel through time, you know, and there's been like, there's a model that this fucking, this scientist, I think his name was Kurt Gordell.
00:34:37.000It was like one of those O's with the double O, what is that called?
00:34:42.000Anyway, he was this guy who figured out that you have to take a cylinder half the size of the solar system and spinning it at the speed of light, you have to cross its...
00:34:54.000I don't remember exactly what the fuck the formula was for it.
00:34:58.000But if you did that, if you actually created this thing that was half the size of the solar system, moving it at the speed of light, somehow or another you actually could go back in time.
00:35:11.000What if they figure out something along those lines?
00:35:14.000Because the thing about people is we're not going to be satisfied with just a Large Hadron Collider.
00:35:18.000It's not like they're going to figure this out, they're going to create the Higgs-Boson particle, and they're going to go, well, here, we got it, you know, we did create the God particle, and we know that it's real.
00:35:28.000No, there's going to be another thing.
00:35:45.000You know, a thought I like a lot that we talked about recently, I always keep on going back to thinking, is like how, what if all this crazy, because lately I have had a lot of crazy stuff go on in my life, and I was like, what if me and you in the future, like iPhone 50, are changing the past?
00:36:02.000You know, like, hey, what do you want this month?
00:36:23.000Because, like, lately it just seems like, all right, this is like a, because a lot of the stuff that's happened to me, it seems like, it's so insane that, like, I'm waiting for reality show cameras to come out.
00:36:34.000You know, I have often thought that there's a path that you're supposed to live in life and that path will sort of illuminate itself to you as you go along the way as long as you pay attention to your instincts.
00:36:46.000You know, and I think a big part of that path is like your attitude in life and how you view things and how you feel about yourself and how you feel about life.
00:37:31.000You can get that out of your life just by doing what you're supposed to do and it feels better and you don't feel like you're self-defeating in the process.
00:37:51.000But I think what's more likely is that every person, sort of as ridiculous as this sounds, that every person sort of fits into a piece in this world.
00:38:01.000And that this world, everything about it, from bottled water to fucking space shuttles, that it's all connected.
00:38:08.000And that it really is, even though it seems like life, like we think of it as just life, that's what we've labeled it.
00:38:30.000And it really is like what we're living in is we're living in a gigantic mathematical equation.
00:38:37.000And I think that that's what all human life, animal life, wind and fucking earthquakes and everything, I think it's all a part of this insane mathematical...
00:39:35.000Very possibly what we're doing in this world.
00:39:37.000I think all of us are living a giant mathematical equation.
00:39:41.000And I think it probably has something to do with technology.
00:39:44.000I mean, no one treats that like it's a serious possibility because it's a subject of Terminator movies.
00:39:51.000But if you looked at what's going on, you would see that technology is Increasing at a much faster rate of evolution than human beings.
00:40:04.000And if essentially what we're capable of doing as a human being is make calculations and move and make decisions and, you know, and have moral code and a judgment in your mind, I mean, you could fucking program a religion into a computer and it would actually follow it.
00:40:21.000You could give a computer a personality.
00:40:23.000You could force a computer to react a certain way to different things.
00:40:26.000Then you figure out a way to put a computer so small that you put it in an artificial body that you've created with your fucking computer.
00:40:34.000And the next thing you know, you have computers making life and that life is a computer and that computer is living its own version of this mathematical program.
00:40:43.000That's just as possible as us being a part of a mathematical program.
00:40:48.000It's all very possible that we are here to create technology and that our whole society is geared towards creating technology.
00:40:57.000The fact that like in China, do you know how fucked up the pollution is in China?
00:45:41.000There's some cheeseheads out there that are not doing anything special, but there's a few like, that's another thing, that movie that I said, Crazy Heart, what's the guy's name?
00:46:51.000I mean, I've seen so much of it on DVD. I mean, I think, yeah, it would be really nice to go over there and see it live, for sure, definitely.
00:47:57.000Did you know I was on Ellen as Dr. Manhattan?
00:47:59.000I don't think I ever talked about this.
00:48:01.000When Twitter first came out, Ellen tweeted like, hey, go to this bus stop if you want to be on the show, but you have to dress up as a superhero.
00:48:09.000And I was at the stoplight right next to that bus stop.
00:48:13.000So I pull over and I'm fucking like looking through my car trying to find, I had like some laundry in there, I had some clothes and a back pillow and I found all these blue things and I dressed up all in blue and I put this neck pillow on my head and I got in the bus stop and I was on the Ellen Show as Dr. Manhattan.
00:48:32.000And one of the funniest things though was I took a sleeve of a blue coat and I put through my zipper and I tied it at the end and put some socks in it and stuff like that.
00:48:41.000So it looked like I had this big wavy dick and nobody even saw it.
00:48:45.000Like they didn't even understand that that's what it was.
00:48:47.000But if you watch it knowing that I'm coming out on L and they're like, let's introduce Dr. Mr. Manhattan or whatever.
00:48:53.000And I'm coming out with this swingy thing.
00:49:09.000I'll put it at redband.com or twitter backslash redband.com redband.com I don't get Joe's philosophy of thinking that seeing the pyramids on TV is the same as real life.
00:49:24.000Oh man, I don't think it's the same as real life.
00:49:26.000I'm just saying if there's only a few things I could do before I died, that wouldn't be my choice.
00:49:57.000I saw the only ruins I've ever seen were in Mexico.
00:50:01.000I saw the Mayan ruins at Chichen Itza, which is pretty humbling, man.
00:50:06.000And it's really fascinating to stand there And I do agree that there's a big difference between standing there in person and checking these things out than watching a video or seeing it in pictures.
00:50:18.000Standing there in person was pretty flabbergasting.
00:50:22.000But all I'm saying is I don't need to go to Egypt.
00:50:25.000I would like to, yes, but I don't need to.
00:53:04.000Just a mosquito will fuck the rest of your life up.
00:53:06.000You ever watch that show, The Enemies Inside Us?
00:53:09.000Where people, they always go swimming in Africa like fucking geniuses.
00:53:13.000And shit gets in their ear and starts rotting away their brain.
00:53:16.000You know, like big giant tumors are growing in their head and it turns to be a mass of worms that they picked up in Africa seven years ago.
00:55:57.000But he did a video where he went to a Sarah Palin book signing and then asked these people, like, you know, what do you feel about, you know, Sarah Palin?
00:56:05.000What really gets you excited about, you know...
00:58:15.000If you really think about how fucked up this whole...
00:58:18.000It is, but I mean, do you think that it's, is it possible to do anything about it?
00:58:22.000I think if it is, the way you're going to do something about it is not necessarily, it's influencing people with thought and changing these people's opinions before they get into this terrible situation of doing fucked up things that are not benefiting the people.
00:59:08.000If there was a movie from the 80s with Bill Murray in it, some sort of a parody, that would be the right-wing, rah-rah fucking truth organization.
00:59:17.000That would be the network that they would make fun of.
00:59:38.000They'll, when they interrogate dudes on the show, when they, you know, like, give people a hard time on the show, when they cut people off, like, they're like these stern, right-wing, like, Aryan, blue-eyed, hot bitches, you know?
00:59:51.000And that's perfect for, like, a Bill Murray movie.
00:59:54.000And those chicks would be real horny and somebody would be fucking them and they'd be screaming out Nazi shit or something.
01:00:52.000We're all just living until our bodies shut off and we don't even address it.
01:00:59.000We don't even stop and really think about it.
01:01:02.000On Oprah, everybody wants to tell you how you can better decorate your living room with fucking Feng Shui.
01:01:09.000The current consciousness of our culture is not at all Focused on the really big questions.
01:01:21.000Like the really freaky fucking questions.
01:01:23.000Like the fact that how little we think about space, you know?
01:01:28.000The little we think about the fact that at any time some crazy shit can happen and there could be a hypernova in the next galaxy and we'd be wiped out instantly.
01:01:37.000Like this is all real and random and easily can happen.
01:02:33.000Imagine, instead of comedy nights, you have campfire night, where you're in the middle of a campfire, you all bring your tents and you all hang out and smoke weed and do mushrooms, and you're in the middle, just like doing what you're doing now, or stand-up kind of, but kind of like a mellow-talking campfire guy.
01:02:47.000That sounds like a great way to get annoyed by hippies.
01:04:07.000At least out here, most people that I know are...
01:04:10.000You know, kind of like have jobs like us where, you know, where it's like comics and people that aren't working 9 to 5. Well, the people that are in your circle.
01:06:23.000I mean, and the way they would put it to me, though, when I first got the job there, they were saying, you know what, a lot of you guys, you're going to go to school and, you know, you're going to try to make a living and you're going to realize it's a hard job force out there.
01:08:01.000And they had a bunch of these little gigs, you know, like in weird little places.
01:08:04.000You'd drive like an hour and a half, and it was like a little sports bar, and they'd have a little stage, and you would go on stage.
01:08:09.000And sometimes they would switch you, like say, hey, this guy's going to go with him because he doesn't have a car, so why don't you go to this place instead?
01:09:04.000Well, I would think if you got way the fuck up there on a ladder like that, god damn, that'd be terrifying.
01:09:09.000Yeah, but sometimes you just go to a house and you go, oh fuck, why did I get stoned?
01:09:12.000You look at the house and you're like, oh no.
01:09:15.000Anyways, my boss, this old lady, said that me or the girl, who was my girlfriend at the time, but we worked together, stole something from her house.
01:09:52.000The idea that someone who is above you in a work organization that gets to treat you like shit, that is one of the worst feelings in the world.
01:10:27.000I worked all week, all day, all week, exhausted at the end of every day, just so tired, pushing a lawnmower in the hot sun and digging holes for people and doing whatever the fuck they want you to do.
01:12:06.000One of the coolest times ever after a show once, back at the old Laugh Stop in Houston, this was right when the Blair Witch Project came out, and these kids came to the show, and then after they came to the show, we all went out and we watched Blair Witch at the theater.
01:12:20.000It was really late at night, because the show at the Laugh Stop was like, 11 o'clock at night and it went on to like 1.30.
01:12:28.000So it was like 2 o'clock in the morning by the time we get out and these kids opened up the theater and turned it on and did everything just for us.
01:12:34.000So it was like me and them and you know my friend Chris McGuire and like one other guy from the comedy club and we all watched Blair Witch and this fucking movie theater.
01:12:42.000Nowadays they fucking hook xboxes up to it and it's all digitally projected.
01:12:47.000My friend Wagner's like anytime you want to come like they do it on the IMAX screen at uh Universal?
01:12:52.000Make us fucking sit there and play Xbox on IMAX. Dude.
01:15:00.000I appreciate the fact that You know, they like me as a commentator and they want to know my take on things, you know, and I understand that.
01:15:30.000I'm like, what the fuck is going to happen here with this?
01:15:33.000I can see a lot of scenarios taking place.
01:15:35.000And neither one of them is definite, for sure.
01:15:38.000So I would never say, this guy's going to do this.
01:15:41.000And when I hear guys, especially guys that have never fought in anything before, they're just sports broadcaster type dudes, and they're talking shit about fighters, and like, this guy doesn't belong in there with them, and it's going to be...
01:15:52.000You know, easy work for that guy and, you know, I look for him to knock him out in the first round.
01:15:57.000You're just making some crazy prediction about what the fuck is going to happen in a fight between two skilled men that are more than capable of smashing each other.
01:21:42.000Apparently they have screenings in Hollywood, and they play that movie, and people get there and they quote the words, because everyone knows the words, and it's like a sort of Rocky Horror Picture thing.
01:27:16.000It's probably some fucking 9-11 shit, isn't it?
01:27:20.000Michael Rupert's shit is, I think it's all out about Peak Oil, and he's the guy that exposed the CIA for selling drugs in movies theaters, though.
01:29:09.000I consider you, I mean you've done stand-up comedy a few times, but I consider you like an internet comedian because you make these little videos that are funny and you put them up on the internet.
01:29:19.000Well the problem is you spend so much time, like five hours, you're spending a ton of hours, Just so you can get three to five minutes in front of eight people.
01:29:27.000I could spend the same amount of time making video that thousands will see.
01:29:31.000So it's like, why would I want to do it on stage when I could do the same thing on the internet and get 50 million times more people seeing it?
01:29:38.000Right, and then eventually, like I said with the Ari thing, if you get enough people to see your shit on the internet, you can develop an internet community, and then you can go do a show somewhere.
01:29:47.000And that's the kind of shit that Ari really needs to take advantage of.
01:31:27.000And as long as your personality is cool and you're friendly and you're funny, You know, you eventually get into the whole mix there.
01:31:33.000And that's what's encouraged funniness and personality and openness and the idea that you don't have to fucking get in fights with everybody you talk to online and that if you do say something to somebody, it better be funny.
01:31:47.000If you're going to be a douche about something, it should be really funny.
01:31:50.000And it's nice to have something like that.
01:31:53.000It's nice to get a chance to meet cool people that I probably would never meet in real life, like you, or like Outlaw, or like Tony Z. There's a lot of people, man.
01:32:04.000There's a lot of people that we've met online, Bad Bobby.
01:32:08.000There's really cool guys that I look forward to seeing.
01:32:11.000When I'm in town and I see them, it's fun to hang with.
01:34:50.000I don't care if it sounds gay, but when I'm getting the mail and it smells like roses, you're just like, wow, this is so much better than shit.
01:34:57.000Yeah, there's something to be said definitely for that.
01:35:01.000There's definitely something to be said that it's not natural to live stacked 70 people on top of each other.
01:35:06.000They've done like those population density studies with rats and they've found that if they have a certain amount of rats in a box everyone's cool but the more rats you add to the box the more fucked up behavior starts manifesting.
01:38:21.000You know, comedy, a lot of it is based on enthusiasm, and I think if I did every night I had to do five nights a week, I don't think I would be as enthusiastic.
01:38:30.000I like little days off sometimes and a weekend off here, and it gets the juices all fired up, and that's the best way to try to create new material, too.
01:38:37.000You can't create new material if you're always, you know, doing long headline sets all the time.
01:38:42.000I think the better way to do it is to just, you know, really sit down, try to break out some new ideas, and then just go up and try them on their own.
01:38:50.000I used to introduce them to bits, but sometimes, you know, introduce them like in the middle of bits, and I still do that sometimes, but I think maybe the best way to do it is just go on stage like some crappy open mic night or something like that, you know?
01:39:02.000I think I'm going to do that at the improv.
01:40:53.000No, you know, another thing that would freak me out is that's how that VBS.TV show about the Arctic, remember there was that one dude, I think his name was Hindmo, and he lives in Alaska, in northeast Alaska.
01:41:06.000Their daughter fell off the boat when she was two years old.
01:41:09.000They were living up there in the fucking Yukon or whatever the hell it is up there.
01:44:02.000There's definitely people that do that.
01:44:04.000There's people that have admitted that the government hires people to blog, hires people to go online and post on message boards and to bait issues.
01:44:12.000You know, anytime anything specific comes up, you know, they have guys that they'll send On that issue if they believe that this is causing dissent and some sort of a meme of consciousness that they can avoid.
01:45:33.000The government has to do that because otherwise people would overthrow the government.
01:45:36.000It's just the whole idea, and you're not supposed to say this, but the whole idea that everybody should have a say in how the world works is ridiculous.
01:45:44.000There's just too many dummies out there.
01:45:51.000It's not only a strong survive anymore, it's everybody survives.
01:45:54.000It's like, no matter what, we try to keep you going.
01:45:58.000You can be the dumbest motherfucker ever and we try to keep you going.
01:46:02.000That didn't always used to be the case.
01:46:04.000And I think because it is the case, it's just way too many dummies.
01:46:09.000A regular democracy just isn't going to work.
01:46:12.000I think that's one of the reasons why the government's completely full of shit and why there's just such a cash grab at the top and why, you know, why they still push war and why they still...
01:46:37.000You would think that in a society in 2010 that someone who literally doesn't read at all, you would find out about that and be like, get that crazy bitch out of here.
01:49:25.000And that's why, you know, whenever there's a demonstration anywhere that's ever anything important, ever involving world leaders, there's always a violence in these demonstrations.
01:49:35.000Even if the people that are into this idea are completely non-violent.
01:49:39.000You know, even if it's Buddhists, you know, against, you know, fucking something that's happening in China.
01:49:46.000And only Buddhists show up and protest, real Buddhists.
01:49:50.000Still, someone will be smashing windows and some shit will happen while they have to bring in cops.
01:49:54.000And the reason why is because they do that.
01:49:56.000They do that to make a nonviolent protest, a violent one, so they can break it up.
01:52:26.000Sometimes people obsess on relationships for long periods of time, but God, so much more Often, when the relationship is over, you feel so much better once it levels out.
01:52:37.000You're like, what the hell is I doing?
01:52:39.000I want to fucking go canoeing and then maybe roller skating or something.
01:52:42.000Well, you were involved in a situation where, I mean, I don't know how much you want to talk about it, but you were involved in a situation where you felt like the person you were with wasn't very happy.
01:52:52.000And you're a pretty easy going kind of silly guy.
01:52:55.000It's also, there's a problem too in having a relationship with someone sometimes who's really struggling and you're not like, you know, you don't have to get up at a specific time every day.
01:53:05.000Well, that seems like it's a problem with my whole life now because now most people have nine to five jobs and it's really hard to think that like, oh, this person doesn't Well, a 9 to 5 that you enjoy is not that bad.
01:53:18.000Those people are usually fairly fun, or at least fairly happy.
01:53:22.000But a 9 to 5 that you hate, that's hard sauce, man.
01:54:39.000Craftsmen, artists, creatives, doctors, engineers, scientists, people that create new computers and fix the stuff that we have, technicians, and then what else?
01:54:49.000Then you don't need Burger King workers anymore.
01:54:51.000That's going to get to a point where that's going to be the case.
01:54:54.000You don't need anybody to do anything that sucks.
01:54:58.000What's the deal with the law and the census survey that they're making you fill out?
01:55:50.000And I don't think it's helping things.
01:55:52.000I think until you start concentrating on why the fuck are we in Iraq and Afghanistan, until we address that, I'm not going to address how many people there are.
01:56:02.000Stop embarrassing yourself, you fucking government.
01:56:05.000You're ruining everything, you cocksuckers.
01:56:07.000Alright, a couple more questions, then we'll just get the fuck out of here, ladies and gentlemen, because this has been almost two hours as of right now.
01:57:55.000I think what's important is the things I like most when I listen to Opie and Anthony or Bubba the Love Sponge or anything like that is when they're in the middle of a conversation and it's an interesting conversation and I enjoy The point of views and the arguments and the disagreements and the revelations that these guys have.
01:58:14.000I just want to listen to people be honest and I want to see if I think the way they think or if I can learn something from the way they think.
01:58:24.000So we're going to do that and I'm right about to do a deal to, it's not been totally finalized, but almost, real close, where I'm going to write a book.
01:58:32.000So I'm in the middle of doing that too.
01:58:36.000I've been writing for a while, but now it's like the deal's actually finalized and it's taken a form.
01:58:42.000It's going to be difficult and I'm going to try to update my website with more little quick videos and shit because it'll be harder to just keep writing things over and over and over again.
01:58:52.000So the next show I've got is this weekend.
01:58:54.000I'm doing the Kevin and Beans April Foolishness at the Universal Amphitheater or some shit like that.
