the joe rogan experience train by day joe rogan podcast by night all day These are like conversation condoms, aren't they?
Yeah, a little bit. Well, it's like a safe room. Blocks out the world. Yeah. Conversation only exists inside your ears. You know? Locks you in. I think it locks you in. Yeah. That's what I like about it.
Yeah, it's almost like a football player kind of putting on their helmet.
Right. Ready to go. Ready to go.
You're like, we're ready for this. Yeah.
Yo, how fun was election night at the mothership?
It was baffling, man. I mean, here, I'll tell you. It was, uh...
That was so much fun.
We had such a good time. That green room was so positive. My favorite part, at one point, they were playing that song, you talk about a revolution. People were dancing. People were smoking weed. I think there was a baby smoking weed. Everybody was like, people were like, it was crazy, dude. Adam and Eve were in there.
There was just a lot going on. It felt like... America is brighter. That's what it felt like. We were moving towards this insane world where we're being controlled by liars. We're just being gaslit left and right. We saw it all over the media. We saw it all over the news. Things that were right in front of your face, they're trying to deny. There's just so much craziness. And then all of a sudden... The world spoke. Did you see the map of the actual country? Like how many places actually voted red?
Oh, no. I don't know if I saw that or not.
It's just a few cities. Even California was mostly red. That's what's crazy.
I don't know if I saw that. I'm trying to think of what I saw. Tony was nervous, remember? Tony better be fucking nervous. Dude, I kept just going up to him and going, Feliz Navidad. To fucking get his vibes.
Look at that.
Oh, wow.
This is the one I saw Jamie else on this, do you? It's got music to it.
This was like when I got that hair surgery. You know what I'm talking about? They play music in the background?
No, but it looks like that pattern. Let me see that again. Yeah, it looks a lot like that, like a transplant. Yeah, micrographs.
Yeah, that's what it looks like, man.
So what I sent you, Jamie, it just shows the entire country. Look at that. Oh, that's interesting. That's crazy. There's no blue states, just blue cities.
Well, then why do you think the cities and states are so much different then?
Well, cities are always going to be blue. It's normal. There's a lot of factors. One of them is... You have massive populations of people, right? And when you have massive populations of people, a lot of times it's based around universities. Like Los Angeles is slightly different because Los Angeles has universities, but really it's like more around Hollywood, which is equally delusional. But most big cities are flavored by a university. Like Austin is flavored by the University of Texas.
Yeah.
It's why Austin is progressive. Austin is, for people that don't know outside of Texas, Austin is one of the most progressive cities. Like if you look at, we voted in Austin, the city of Austin voted more for Kamala Harris than the city of Los Angeles did.
Oh, wow.
Really? A higher percentage of Democrats voted for Kamala Harris than even Los Angeles.
Well, I think a lot. It seems like a lot like a lot of Democrats. I don't know like a ton about politics, but it seems like a lot of Democrats like it's I understand a lot of the voting because it's hopeful voting. It's like wishful thinking.
Well, they're feeding off of narratives like you're a good person if you believe this. But the consequences are what they're ignoring. The pretending that the economy is in a great place. That's crazy. Talk to anybody who's broke. Talk to anybody who's struggling to pay for bills and groceries. Talk to anybody who's trying to buy a car. The economy is bananas right now. It's sketchy. Very sketchy.
And a lot of it is... People are robbing each other on Facebook Marketplace.
A lot of it is recovering from COVID, I'm sure. I mean, there's probably a lot of blowback from that. I mean, they shut the whole fucking country down, which is just so nuts.
