Joe Rogan (0:03)

Boom! Brian Moses, you are one of the saviors of comedy. I want you to know this. Honestly, truly, really. Because of Roast Battle...

Roast Battle is like one of the last, real sanctuaries for horrible comedy.

Nasty, evil, fucked up, but hilarious comedy. And the way you do it, where you make everybody hug it out at the end And you set the ground rules, no violence, this is just joke writing.

Brian Moses (0:34)

This is all, this is just, words don't hurt us.

Joe Rogan (0:37)

When I first came back to the Comedy Store, it was like how many years ago it was, now? It's like five years ago or something like that.

Brian Moses (0:42)

The exile was over.

Joe Rogan (0:43)

And when I saw Roast Battle, it was one of the things that made me go, whoa, this place is different now. This place is changed, it's evolved.

Brian Moses (0:52)

We brought some of a fight culture back to it, you know what I mean? You know, like where if you have a problem, we're in a place where all we use is words anyway, so duke it out that way.

Joe Rogan (1:02)

Yeah, well, not just that.

There's people that don't have problems with each other and they just fuck each other up on that stage. There's like people with like devastated friendships.

Brian Moses (1:11)

Yeah, they've ruined friendships. But nobody's ever attacked each other, so.

Joe Rogan (1:15)

That's amazing. Because I've been there a couple of times. I stopped going. It makes me feel bad. Does it?

Brian Moses (1:21)

It's consensual. Everybody's involved.

Joe Rogan (1:24)

I fucking, I'm the commentator for the UFC.

Brian Moses (1:26)

Yeah.

Joe Rogan (1:27)

And Roast Battle makes me feel bad.

Brian Moses (1:29)

That's the combat sport you don't like.

Joe Rogan (1:31)

Just stop and think about how crazy that is.

Brian Moses (1:33)

That's nuts. Why? How is that possible?

Joe Rogan (1:34)

Sometimes it's so mean. Sometimes people say shit that's so mean.

SPEAKER_5 (1:38)

You're like, yikes.

Brian Moses (1:39)

I saw, there was a joke recently by, it was Jimmy Carr and Megan Galey, and Jimmy was judging her, and she was battling a puppet. That's how crazy the show gets.

So this girl's got like a half hour on Comedy Central. She's brilliant. And Jimmy said something snide to her, and her response was, I wouldn't fuck you if you raped me.

That was like, I can't believe I've never heard that before. And his response to that was, oh, you can say funny things. Oh wow. It was gorgeous.

SPEAKER_3 (2:06)

I wouldn't fuck you if you raped me.

Brian Moses (2:11)

Let's break that down.

Joe Rogan (2:12)

Yeah, I would have to be like this while that's like, hmm, I don't know if we're going along with that one.

Brian Moses (2:16)

False premise. Not going along with that one, why not?

Joe Rogan (2:20)

I don't know. I mean, you're not fucking someone if they rape you.

Brian Moses (2:24)

No, no, it's not consensual, right? You're not giving it back.

Joe Rogan (2:27)

Doesn't make sense.

I get it. I get what she's doing. I get what she's saying.

Brian Moses (2:33)

It was just so hard though. It was like, damn, I wouldn't fuck you if you raped me.

That's just, that's hard. And a lady said that to a man and ugh. It took him a couple seconds to be like, I'm gonna let this happen.

Joe Rogan (2:43)

There was some senator somewhere and they were talking about rape, and he actually said that a woman can't, unless she submits, a man can't actually rape her.

Brian Moses (2:55)

Wait, what?

Joe Rogan (2:56)

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Unless she gives into it.

Brian Moses (2:59)

Like she taps out? Like, all right, I'm giving it to you.

Joe Rogan (3:01)

There was something along those lines, like it was almost like saying that she kind of wants it.

SPEAKER_3 (3:05)

Wow.

Joe Rogan (3:07)

Do you remember that? Yeah, there's, it was one of the most ridiculous.

Jamie (3:12)

He says he misspoke, of course.

Joe Rogan (3:13)

Oh, he misspoke. Do you know they made Mario Lopez apologize? He said that the babies shouldn't be trans.

And he said, my comments were ignorant and insensitive because I want to keep my job at E.

Brian Moses (3:27)

Right, exactly.

Joe Rogan (3:29)

He should have added that. He should have went dot, dot, dot because I want to keep my job at E.

Brian Moses (3:32)

Because I want to keep my job. That's really all it is.
