you go through all three of those? No.
No, one other one is for you. Just in case you wanted to.
Michael Yo (0:05)
Good. Because I guess, your fucking beast gone through three cups.
Joe Rogan (0:10)
Oh, we're live.
We're trying to figure out how much, I think these are 270 milligrams of caffeine. If you drank three of these. Jamie, that would kill you, right? That kill you? No.
Michael Yo (0:21)
Wouldn't kill you.
Joe Rogan (0:22)
It would fuck you up.
Michael Yo (0:23)
I thought you walked in with three coffees. I was like, damn, Rogan, you're gonna die. Like straight up die after the show.
Joe Rogan (0:29)
One is for you, and hopefully we won't need both. Well, I don't know. I've drank both of them before in a show, which is like 500 plus milligrams.
Michael Yo (0:36)
I'm addicted to coffee, though, man. I will just drink it when I'm, I don't even need a high. I'll just drink it.
Joe Rogan (0:40)
I love the smell of it.
Michael Yo (0:41)
It's so good in the morning, man. Oh, it's the best.
Joe Rogan (0:44)
And I love it with cream. I love it black. I love espresso. I love it all.
Michael Yo (0:50)
See, I got rid of drinking the whole coffee. I'm now an espresso drinker.
Joe Rogan (0:55)
Really?
Michael Yo (0:55)
Two shots in the morning.
Joe Rogan (0:57)
A double shot.
Michael Yo (0:57)
A double shot, and then a couple hours later, I'll do eight double shots throughout the day because to me, that's better than drinking one coffee.
Joe Rogan (1:04)
Yes.
Michael Yo (1:05)
But it's not.
Joe Rogan (1:05)
It's not.
It's actually, apparently espresso has less caffeine in it than coffee does. Even though it seems like it has a lot, it doesn't.
Michael Yo (1:15)
But you have to drink more acidic acid.
Joe Rogan (1:16)
It just tastes like shit.
Michael Yo (1:18)
Yeah, yeah.
Joe Rogan (1:18)
It doesn't taste like shit, but it's definitely an acquired taste. I enjoy it, but it's one of the rare things I drink that is that big, and I'm holding my finger up like a...
Michael Yo (1:26)
Yeah, two inches.
Joe Rogan (1:27)
Two inches.
Michael Yo (1:27)
Yeah.
Joe Rogan (1:28)
It's that, it's two inches, and it'll take me 10, 15 minutes to drink it.
Michael Yo (1:32)
For an espresso?
Joe Rogan (1:32)
Yeah, it should be like a slow...
Michael Yo (1:34)
Oh my God, why are you drinking so slow?
Joe Rogan (1:36)
I like it, I like the savor. Like this, like a gentleman. Pinkies out, bro. There's only one way to do it, with these fat, knee-under-tall fingers. If you're holding that little tiny handle, you can't get your whole hand in there like a man.
Michael Yo (1:47)
You can't look like a man drinking an espresso.
Joe Rogan (1:49)
Right, it's not like a beer stein made out of a rhino horn. It's a tiny little thing.
Michael Yo (1:56)
You cannot look tough drinking an espresso, but I drink mine in like three seconds.
Joe Rogan (2:00)
Do you just throw it down?
Michael Yo (2:02)
And then I go to the gym.
Joe Rogan (2:03)
Well, I do that too. One time I drank five.
I have an espresso espresso maker, and I put five capsules in there, and I filled a mug up with it, like a coffee mug, and I drank it, and I ran four miles. Now, was it a fucking animal through the hills, like I was being chased by wolves.
Michael Yo (2:20)
You were just howling. Wolves are chasing you.
Joe Rogan (2:25)
I was like, why did I drink so much? So what is espresso at? What does it say there, Jamie?
Okay, coffee brood. See, but it all depends on the company, because Starbucks is extremely caffeinated.
Yeah, see, Starbucks is way up the chart. Look at it there. Starbucks tall is like closing in on 200 and, what is it? It looks like about 270 Yeah, I think that's about it. Somewhere in the range of 270 milligrams of caffeine.
Michael Yo (2:50)
But that's a coffee. That's not espresso.
Joe Rogan (2:51)
Right, not espresso.
Michael Yo (2:52)
So coffee, it would be better to go to Starbucks and get a tall coffee then.
Joe Rogan (2:56)
There's an espresso. See how low it is? It's below 100
Michael Yo (2:58)
Yeah, so that's why I'm drinking so many of them.
Joe Rogan (3:00)
So when I drank five, I guess, I think I had five. I think 500 milligrams, which is basically less than drinking two of these things.
