(dramatic music) - Joe Rogan pulling down, check it out. - The Joe Rogan, experience. - Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day. (rock music) - I feel a bit less shit about myself to stave off death. - Well, doesn't it do something for your mind? Doesn't it help you? - Yeah, of course it does, but when you compare it with life and death, there's a little bit of a difference. - Oh yeah, yeah, for sure. - Yeah, there's definitely a difference, but just for mental health, that's the main reason to do it for me. It's mental health, it's such a difference between not doing it and doing it. Like two different, totally different people. You got notes on that thing or something? - Always. - You gotta get one of these babies, a little kickstand jammies, those little shit. - Oh, sexy, sexy sexy sexy. - Yeah, all right. - It encourages you to waste your time watching YouTube videos. - Yeah, without having to hold it. - 'Cause it props up, yeah. - You feel like a fool sitting there staring at your camera, holding it in your hand. I always said to like, if there was a drug that made people stare at their hand for six hours a day, everybody'd be like, oh my God, which is really a problem in this country. People were just staring at their hands. - Well, we looked at that last time that we were on, we had the photo of that guy, that artist that had taken images of people looking at their phones. - Yes, with no, with no phone on their hand. - And then we removed the phones. (laughing) - It's such a crazy thing we're doing. And now, of course, there's AR glasses that are eventually going to put whatever TikTok feed in like one eye where you're watching someone in the other eye. - Have you ever tried those? - I've messed around with them a little bit. Zuck was here, and he let me try the new ones that haven't been released yet. They were really interesting.
