Joe Rogan (0:06)

Three, two, one.

All the way from down under. How are you brother? What's going on? Good to see you again, man.

Adam Greentree (0:12)

Yeah, hell yeah.

Joe Rogan (0:13)

You're on a wild, magical mystery tour of the United States of America here.

Adam Greentree (0:17)

It's been amazing.

Joe Rogan (0:18)

With your kids, your cute little kids. Damn adorable.

Adam Greentree (0:20)

They're cute if they're not your own.

Joe Rogan (0:22)

They're damn, my are adorable.

I love kids, but you're taking them too. You took everybody. You're here for how many months?

Adam Greentree (0:30)

Five months.

Joe Rogan (0:31)

You're moving, tired of Australia?

Adam Greentree (0:33)

No, hell no. Just a big trip.

Joe Rogan (0:35)

No, it's better over here.

Adam Greentree (0:36)

It is, I love America. Is it better?

Joe Rogan (0:39)

Can't say that, they won't let you back in.

Adam Greentree (0:41)

Yeah, probably not. They're very different, but the American landscape, how unique the landscape is, from the Rocky Mountains to the desert, it's just insane.

Joe Rogan (0:52)

Does Australia have any mountains?

Adam Greentree (0:53)

Yeah, heaps. Yeah, everyone thinks Australia's just like this fucking flat piece of sand, don't they? Yeah, with monsters in it.

There's heaps of mountain ranges and shit. Really?

Joe Rogan (1:03)

How tall do they get?

Adam Greentree (1:05)

I don't know the height, but they're up there.

Joe Rogan (1:08)

Like a real mountain, like Rocky Mountain?

Adam Greentree (1:10)

Like a real mountain, like Rocky Mountain, yeah. Really? Yeah.

Joe Rogan (1:12)

Wow. Dude, let me tell you something. Your 28 days that you did in the Rocky Mountains out here, that we put on Instagram, that we were promoting it constantly, that was like one of the most talked about, like every, I got calls from all my friends. Burt Kreischer was fucking obsessed with you.

He wouldn't stop calling me about it. He's like, the fucking guy's by himself. The video with him with the grizzly bear, and he's pointing the gun at it. Jesus Christ.

Adam Greentree (1:37)

The fucking weirdest thing is that's normal shit. It is, that's very normal.

Joe Rogan (1:42)

Yes.

Adam Greentree (1:42)

But society's so removed from it now.

Joe Rogan (1:44)

Well, if you're out there, it's normal to get charged by a grizzly bear.

Adam Greentree (1:49)

Yeah, you're living with nature, yeah.

Joe Rogan (1:51)

One good reason not fucking be out there.

Adam Greentree (1:55)

I was talking with Kim about this. We hiked into the back of Montana to the spot that's usually got a bunch of grizzly bears that I go to.

And we're talking about you, how you won't come out to Australia hunting because you're just scared of everything. The difference is, when you're walking around the mountains here, it can happen at any point because your fucking grizzly bears have got feet, they walk on land. In Australia, you pretty much have to go into the water. So you're only worried about that when you go to collect water or you're thinking about having a wash or something. Here, it's full time.

Joe Rogan (2:24)

For whatever reason, it doesn't bother me as much to get killed and eaten by a bear than it does a giant saltwater crocodile.

Adam Greentree (2:33)

It should. I reckon the crocodile would be nicer.

Joe Rogan (2:35)

What?

Adam Greentree (2:36)

Yeah, it'd be nicer. It'd like grab you, drag you down. You'd drowned anyway, you know, and then it would do what it wants with you. A grizzly bear is gonna fucking maul you, scratch your face off, bite your neck, take chunks out of you.

It's gonna be longer, dude.

Joe Rogan (2:50)

Yeah, but it's American.

Adam Greentree (2:52)

Yeah. We don't want no foreign shit eating us.

Joe Rogan (2:56)

Yeah, I ain't fucking no foreigner's eating me.

There's something about grizzly bears that's the most terrifying things that they just eat you. They don't kill you first. They just hold you down. Start eating you.

Adam Greentree (3:07)

Yeah, yeah.

Joe Rogan (3:07)

They treat you the same way they treat a salmon. You know, when you see them hold down a salmon and they take big bites out of it, they don't make sure they kill that salmon.

Adam Greentree (3:14)

There's no nice thought behind it. You know, it's like, yeah, I'll finish it off first, and then, yeah. Did you see the mountain lion that I ended up hunting when I was out here?

And like mountain lions usually kill their prey, but obviously grabbed the calf, and it was eating this calf while it was still alive, like a beef cow calf.
