#1290 - Bryan Callen

Joe Rogan (0:02)

Yes, and we're live, Bryan Callen.

Bryan Callen (0:05)

We're live. We are live. We're live.

Joe Rogan (0:07)

We are live. I've been listening to Radio Lab on the way over here, and they have a new episode out about the asteroid impact that killed the dinosaurs.

Bryan Callen (0:18)

Yeah.

Joe Rogan (0:19)

Holy shit, man.

Bryan Callen (0:20)

Right. Apparently, they, tell me if I'm right about this before you tell me more, because I want to see if I have a little knowledge.

There is an under, like there's a very hard layer of rock that covers a large part of the earth.

Joe Rogan (0:40)

Right.

Bryan Callen (0:41)

And that is proof that somehow there was an asteroid that hit and it got really, really hot and the rock got.

Joe Rogan (0:50)

That is a moron's version of the science that they clearly lay out.

Bryan Callen (0:56)

And by the way, it's the worst thing. I'm also like, there's rock that got melted, that was under the ground.

Joe Rogan (1:01)

Undeniable evidence of a rock from the space area.

Bryan Callen (1:06)

There's a layer of the earth. The crust of the earth is super hard because it got really hot after an asteroid hit and everybody died. And they found dinosaur bones in it.

I don't believe in dinosaurs because I have something called the Bible at home.

Joe Rogan (1:21)

Some people don't believe in dinosaurs. Do you know that, right?

Yeah, this Flat Earth folks, they believe dinosaurs are fake.

Bryan Callen (1:28)

Why is it that most Flat Earthers, from my experience, are generally super good at a discipline that has nothing to do with astrophysics, like Jiu-Jitsu? Like they spend a lot of time on a mat, but then they have really strong political opinions about the central banks.

Joe Rogan (1:42)

I think it's just a lack of real education. And then you get caught up in these YouTube things that show you a secret.

And it's very attractive. It's very attractive to like find out about some hidden stuff. Like, oh my God, I can't believe they did this. They hid from us the fact that the earth is flat. Jesus Christ, space is fake? Bro, space is fake.

Satellites aren't real. They're low flying planes. They're planes. They're constantly beaming down these information from the sky. Satellites are not real. Nuclear bombs, they're not real. They're not real, they're just big bombs.

Bryan Callen (2:19)

But then the problem is when you break your leg and you have to set your bone or you get staff and you have to trust Big Pharma to cure it or you use your iPhone and it works and you're talking to somebody in Japan.

Joe Rogan (2:29)

That's the big one.

Bryan Callen (2:30)

The iPhone's the big one. But why is that technology something you trust?

Joe Rogan (2:35)

Well, that, your fucking iPhone has a global positioning satellite chip in it. Stop it. It links up with the fucking one that's in the sky and it tells you where you are on the map. That's why your Google Maps works.

Jesus fucking Christ.

Bryan Callen (2:49)

I think there are probably only five or six flat earthers.

Joe Rogan (2:52)

No, there's a lot.

Bryan Callen (2:52)

Yeah.

Joe Rogan (2:53)

There's thousands of them.

Bryan Callen (2:54)

Well, okay, thousands. But that really means only five or six in the grand scheme of things.

Joe Rogan (2:57)

I think the problem with all of them is that they just got married to the idea and then they're fighting it. And if you fight it with someone who doesn't know what they're talking about, not that I do know what I'm talking about, but if you fight it with like a Sean Carroll or like a real astrophysicist, a real scientist.

There's so much evidence that the Earth is round and no evidence that the Earth is flat. It's one of those things where it's just like, what are you guys doing? You're chasing your tail. This is crazy.

Bryan Callen (3:23)

I'm too busy to follow your YouTube.

Joe Rogan (3:26)

I'm too busy for Bigfoot.

Bryan Callen (3:27)

Yeah.

Joe Rogan (3:28)

That's definitely, and that might have been a real thing. You think so? Yeah.

It was a real animal.

Bryan Callen (3:33)

There was a creature?

Joe Rogan (3:34)

Yeah, there was a real creature called Gigantopithecus. It was a real animal. It was like eight foot tall, bipedal, hominid. It absolutely existed. Probably.

Bryan Callen (3:41)

Yeah, why not? Like a giant ape of some sort.

Joe Rogan (3:43)

Dude, if a fucking gorilla didn't exist, imagine seeing a gorilla and be like, Jesus Christ, what the fuck is that thing?
