the joe rogan experience train by day joe rogan podcast by night all day Joe Rogan. How are you, my brother? I'm good. How are you doing? What the fuck's cracking? I'm doing good, man. Just enjoying Austin. Are you enjoying the town of freedom? I'm enjoying the town of freedom. This is the town of freedom. Yes. There's freedom here. This is the wild west. Yes. I'm enjoying it. I'm enjoying it. I'm eating. I went to Suerte. Oh, that's a good spot. It was incredible.

How does Yannis feel about living in Austin?

Giannis Pappas 0:36
Yeah, that's a good spot. I think it's the best Mexican I ever had. It's very good. There's a lot of good Mexican out here. Yeah. That's a good spot, though. That was good. Yeah. And, of course, hit the Terry B's on Martin Luther King Day, so it was empty. It was nice. Suerte, you have the added benefit of being around people with masks. That's like East Austin. I haven't seen any masks. You haven't seen any? No. I think... Well, I did in Vancouver. I was in Vancouver before this. There we are. They never stopped. No, they're still going. Yeah. It's wild. There's a San Francisco town hall meeting, and they passed a vote to stop for a ceasefire in Palestine. I saw it, yeah. Yeah, and so they're all masked up, and they're dancing around, and they got blue hair.
Giannis Pappas 1:21
And somebody made a caption that this is literally South Park. This is literally an episode of South Park. Yeah. They look like fucking complete maniacs left in this worn, torn, shattered hull of a city. Whatever's left is filled with human shit and tents everywhere. They're dancing around. They've stopped the ceasefire in Palestine. Yeah, we voted for it. Stop. Stop it. They solved it in Oakland. Like, as if Benjamin Netanyahu's paying attention. Right. Like, that's going to work. Oh, I guess I'll stop now. Yeah. He stopped traffic on the way to the airport in New York, and that'll do it. Yeah, that does it. That generally does it. That's what Netanyahu was waiting for. He's like, all right, now I've... I've seen the error in my ways now.
Giannis Pappas 2:07
Now I've got to pull back. Now I've got to pull back. I did go a little too far. Let me back up. Yeah, let me back it up right now. Dude, they're stopping traffic. This is serious. I saw in Austin, I saw three people on the overpass just holding up a Free Palestine thing, and I'm going like, all right, that did it. I bet those people have amazing, productive lives, and they're not crazy at all. Yeah, not at all, no. They got a full schedule of things to do and they took a lot of time out of their schedule to stand on top of the highway. They're super healthy. They're really into mindfulness. They're on the ball every day. They get everything done. Every one of them. Every one of them has an alert for what they have to do next on their very busy schedule.
Giannis Pappas 2:47
Free Palestine. I wasn't gonna. Those people just... But I saw your banner. Yeah, until the banner came up. Yeah, those people are just perpetuating the situation over there. It's like... The whole is it right or wrong thing, it's like it's obviously wrong. Humans have always been wrong. When it comes to that, it's always been about power, who's got more power and who has less. It's very multilayered. That's the thing about any international conflict. You can look at the mainstream media narrative. You know, they did this, then they did that. But then it's like Ukraine and Russia. Like you say, oh, my God, Russia invaded Ukraine. This is horrible. And that's most people's natural reaction to it. And then when you go, wait a minute, was there a rule?
Giannis Pappas 3:30
Did they make an agreement to not push arms closer to Russia? Did they consistently violate that agreement? Were they trying to move Ukraine? I was reading about them trying to move Ukraine into NATO. Like, what? What are you, a Putin supporter? Are you a Putin supporter? No, wait a minute. Isn't this a very multifaceted, super complex international conflict that really is about a lot of things it's it's not just about russia and ukraine it's about nato it's about nuclear arms being pushed closer to a superpower it's like yeah there's more to it there's more to it there's more to all of it and usually that's why war breaks out is because it's so it's so multi-layered and then it gets to that breaking point and it's just wild that they could still pull off war today
