Joe Rogan (0:00)

got this all day.

Boom, live. Okay, what the fuck were you just telling me? Hi Matt Farah.

Matt Farah (0:07)

What's happening?

Joe Rogan (0:08)

Good to see you again.

Matt Farah (0:09)

We were just talking about Rolls Royce. Yeah. Because I was here in your new Baller studio, which congratulations, it's sick, admiring your skylights, and we were discussing the Rolls Royce and the starfield ceiling they do.

Joe Rogan (0:21)

Yeah.

Matt Farah (0:22)

Which is, they put all these fiber optic lights into your headliner and it looks like the stars. And it's, I think it's 15 grand, the option, I think.

It's so badass, it's so badass. And not only will they do it, so you can get your standard star pattern, which is just whatever the guy, just random, right, random lights. Or they'll make you exact constellations, if you prefer.

Joe Rogan (0:47)

Right, like if you're one of those astrology people.

Matt Farah (0:49)

Yeah, or they will make you, you know, the sky directly above your house, if you give them a coordinate. There's a photo of it.

So badass. It's like, it's so awesome.

Joe Rogan (1:02)

You're balling so hard when you're driving around with a car with stars in the roof.

Matt Farah (1:06)

Well, so the last thing I said before you hit live was that they have just announced they have come out with a shooting star.

So I don't know how it works. I'm not sure exactly what, but I guess you could do, you can get shooting stars in your ceiling.

Joe Rogan (1:21)

That is crazy. What are they gonna do? Make the whole thing a big LCD pattern or something?

Matt Farah (1:25)

Yeah, I guess, or I don't know. I guess you could run an LED or a fiber optic line that works in some kind of a tray. I emailed once I got that press release, because I get press releases and I just delete them. But when I saw shooting star ceiling, I responded, can I have further info and video on this? And they said they'd get back to me.

Joe Rogan (1:45)

I've never even been in one of those things.

Matt Farah (1:47)

Never?

Joe Rogan (1:48)

No, no, you must.

Matt Farah (1:50)

You must.

Joe Rogan (1:51)

What is it like in there?

Matt Farah (1:52)

It's like sailing. It's like yachting.

Joe Rogan (1:54)

Phil Hartman had a really, really old, I think it was an old Bentley. I mean, like really old.

Matt Farah (2:02)

Like 60s old?

Joe Rogan (2:03)

Older than that.

Matt Farah (2:04)

Like 30s old?

Joe Rogan (2:06)

It was fucking old, man. I wish I had paid attention to cars back then, but back then was when I just started getting on TV, I really didn't. When I was broke, I always loved cars when I was a kid, but then I was broke, my attitude was like, don't think about some shit you're never gonna be able to afford. So just don't think about it.

Matt Farah (2:22)

Look at you now, Joe Rogan. With all the toys and somewhere to park them.

Joe Rogan (2:26)

Somewhere to park them. But he had this old baller looking thing. It was like something out of Citizen Kane.

Matt Farah (2:35)

Oh yeah.

Joe Rogan (2:35)

Just this incredible boat. And you know.

Matt Farah (2:38)

Like pontoon fenders, the whole deal.

Joe Rogan (2:40)

I think he shifted it on the tree.

Matt Farah (2:42)

Probably. I would say, if I had to guess something baller, it's like I would say Bentley Continental S1 would be the most likely.

Joe Rogan (2:49)

It might have been.

Matt Farah (2:50)

Candidate. It's a stunning automobile.

Joe Rogan (2:52)

But he loved that thing. He would just have this giant smile on his face with that thing.

He was like, this is so ridiculous.

Matt Farah (2:59)

I can picture that Phil Hartman smile.

Joe Rogan (3:01)

That dude loved some cars.

Matt Farah (3:03)

That's great. Phil Hartman's bit, like that?

Joe Rogan (3:06)

Something along those lines.

Matt Farah (3:07)

Yeah.

Joe Rogan (3:07)

I wish I could remember, because like I said, back then, like if you asked me to, like there's cars that I don't know shit about, like Rolls Royces or Bentleys. But if you showed me like an old Porsche, I'd be like, oh, that's a 73 Longnose.

Matt Farah (3:18)

Yeah, yeah.

Joe Rogan (3:18)

I know that one.

Matt Farah (3:19)

Well, we all have our areas of nerddom.

Joe Rogan (3:21)

Like muscle cars, I'm a good muscle car guy. I understand most muscle cars. I could pick them out in the lineup.
