#1190 - Joey Diaz

Joe Rogan (0:02)

Three, two, what the fuck are you saying, Joey Diaz?

Joey Diaz (0:08)

I said that once you're clean for 29 days without smoking reefer, that's it. Why go back? What?

Joe Rogan (0:14)

I like it.

Joey Diaz (0:17)

If I fucking stayed clean from reefer for 29 days, I'd go, I'd let my lungs fucking heal from the abuse I have inflicted on them the last 30 fucking years.

Joe Rogan (0:27)

What about edibles? What about spray, the jumbo spray?

Joey Diaz (0:30)

First of all, I haven't had an edible since like, I broke it in Boston September 29th. So out of respect for Sobre October, I didn't do an edible. I haven't done edibles. Something was wrong with my stomach.

So I figured out I was lacto intolerant.

Joe Rogan (0:45)

Lactose intolerant.

Joey Diaz (0:46)

Lactose intolerant. I fucking eat mozzarella cheese or milk and I'm farting up, you know, it's a nightmare. So I had to cut that out of my diet. No mozzarella cheese. Light on the American cheese now. No Swiss, no more. No Cuban sandwiches.

It's fucking crazy. And then I had to cut out. The edibles would give me a weird feeling.

Like what? Like it had just gone, it had just gone somewhere else. And I didn't like the hunger issues.

Joe Rogan (1:17)

Oh, the munchies.

Joey Diaz (1:18)

The hunger issues after 11 o'clock were just monstrous. Like here I am working hard to lose weight.

I'd stick to it and then I go home, I start with an apple, another apple, a banana, another banana. Then you gotta bust out the salami sandwich with the fucking, you know, it was just getting bad. I could not control it, uncontrollable. The hunger from edibles every minute after 11 o'clock for me was uncontrollable.

Joe Rogan (1:46)

Well, you get blitzkrieg'd. You don't just get like a little fucked up.

Joey Diaz (1:49)

No, and it starts early. It was starting early, two in the afternoon, then pop another two at fucking six.

Joe Rogan (1:55)

Do you like vaporizing?

Joey Diaz (1:57)

No.

Joe Rogan (1:58)

No, just smoking. I can, if you're worried about your lungs, you know.

Joey Diaz (2:02)

I take vapors at a hotel. To get the party started in the morning. While I'm having coffee in my hotel room, writing my notes for the thoughts of the day.

Because I don't wake up with hunger.

See, that was my problem all those years. I would need till one. If you want to be a fat fuck, don't eat till one when you wake up, because then you got to make up for it the rest of the day. So now I have to force myself to eat.

Joe Rogan (2:26)

What do you mean?

Joey Diaz (2:27)

Because a lot of you guys like the intermittent fasting. I can't live with that.

Joe Rogan (2:32)

What do you mean?

Joey Diaz (2:32)

My shit goes up and down. My blood pressure, my blood sugar. So I could never intermittent fast. But in the old days, I'd be coked up and I'd wake up speedy still. So I wouldn't eat breakfast. But I'd start eating at one or two o'clock and would not stop till fucking two in the morning. You saw me.

I'd be eating those pink dot sandwiches like they were nothing. Two meatball sandwiches at 12 o'clock because I wouldn't eat breakfast.

I forced myself to eat, you know, for years we was eating every six hours. You're supposed to eat a smaller portion, you know what I'm saying? So I gotta eat breakfast. And I could eat two egg yolks, a piece of wheat toast and fruit and I'm good.

Like for Sobroctober, I gave up bacon.

I only eat two pieces of bacon. It's five points on Weight Watches. That's all I'm allowed. But at least I'm allowed two pieces of bacon.

Joe Rogan (3:25)

Two pieces of bacon is all you really need. You need anything more than two pieces of bacon just to get greedy.

Joey Diaz (3:29)

When I was 418, between you and I, my wife, who's from the south, would make the whole packet of Oscar Mayer center-cut bacon, the whole pack. Every morning, that was my breakfast.

Joe Rogan (3:42)

You'd eat the whole packet?

Joey Diaz (3:43)

The whole package with three eggs, a half a loaf of Wonder Bread and butter and a 16-ounce Coke to boot.

Joe Rogan (3:51)

A Coke on top of it?

Joey Diaz (3:52)

Oh yeah, I could drink two Cokes for breakfast. Remember, I grew up in the east coast and I caught a bad habit early on. After my mother died, I caught that. I wouldn't eat at home. I would leave and eat at the deli. I went on the, remember when fucking cream cheese and jelly on a roll was big? Oh yeah. You know what that does to your system? Terrible. Cream cheese and jelly for breakfast?
