Tom Segura (0:00)
We skipped traffic in LA. There's no way he's not doing that again.
Joe Rogan (0:03)
We're live.
Bert Kreischer (0:04)
Dude, 10 minutes, LAX to Burbank.
Joe Rogan (0:06)
What are you doing, helicopters?
Bert Kreischer (0:07)
I rented a helicopter last night.
Ari Shaffir (0:09)
You rented one?
Joe Rogan (0:10)
How much does it cost?
Bert Kreischer (0:11)
$1,000.
Tom Segura (0:12)
It costs you more than that.
Bert Kreischer (0:13)
$1,000.
Joe Rogan (0:14)
Where are you going?
Bert Kreischer (0:15)
$1,000.
Tom Segura (0:15)
LAX. So to skip coming up.
Bert Kreischer (0:18)
Check out Blade.
Ari Shaffir (0:19)
Wait, why do you want to go?
Bert Kreischer (0:20)
Because I'm only home for less than 24 hours this trip, and I was panicking, and then I was like, what does it cost to get a helicopter? And my assistant Andrew, my cousin Andrew, was like, let's check. And he's like, it's actually, it's not that expensive.
He's like, it's $1,000. And I was like, I go, fuck it, let's shoot some videos, we'll get in the helicopter. Wow. And so we just shot a video to promote dates.
Ari Shaffir (0:40)
What does it cost to just fly straight to Burbank?
Bert Kreischer (0:43)
You can't fly from LAX to Burbank.
Ari Shaffir (0:45)
No, I mean, from wherever you were.
Tom Segura (0:46)
Yeah, but you gotta connect.
Joe Rogan (0:47)
Explain to me what you're doing it for again.
Bert Kreischer (0:49)
Just to put it on, just promote dates.
Tom Segura (0:51)
No, but it's also to skip.
SPEAKER_5 (0:52)
It's to skip.
Bert Kreischer (0:53)
You skipped the 405
Joe Rogan (0:55)
Yeah. Where were you going though?
Bert Kreischer (0:57)
We landed at LAX last night at five o'clock, and I was like, we're gonna be in our traffic for two hours. And I was like, I'm gonna get home and I won't see the girls, they'll already be asleep. And so I was like, fuck it, let's hit a helicopter. And then they grab you from the door of the plane, they drive you on across the tarmac over to the helicopter, and you're home in 10 fucking minutes.
And it was at sunset, it was beautiful.
Tom Segura (1:19)
It's a big thing now in New York too, there's actually like three or four. No, you can even fly.
From Newark to JFK. No, like I'm saying, you can go from Midtown, you can go from Downtown to these Blade Stations and fly to JFK.
Ari Shaffir (1:32)
I mean, seems cool.
Tom Segura (1:33)
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer (1:34)
If you can wrap your head around it as marketing, as opposed to like a lifestyle.
Tom Segura (1:38)
In New York, it's way, way less expensive because those are pools. So it's like, it's on a rotation. Oh, they're just going. So you're just buying a seat, you know what I mean?
Ari Shaffir (1:48)
Wow.
Tom Segura (1:48)
You're not doing it for yourself. Have you done it? No, but I did it to go to a gig in New York. So I was in New York and it was to go to Jersey, so I skipped all the rush hour traffic and just flew to Jersey.
But they said you can go to, if you're going out of JFK, you can do it that way, too.
Ari Shaffir (2:03)
Our earth is dying. I remember having private helicopter check.
Joe Rogan (2:08)
You know, I was reading an article about that today. Do you know, like people keep saying, we need to stop eating meat to save the environment.
Tom Segura (2:15)
Yeah.
Joe Rogan (2:15)
Do you know that greenhouse gases, only 9% of all greenhouse gases, 9% are because of agriculture, less than half of that is because of meat.
Ari Shaffir (2:26)
What is it from?
Joe Rogan (2:27)
Less than half of that is because of beef. So you're literally dealing with like 3%.
Ari Shaffir (2:33)
What's all the greenhouse gas emissions from then?
Joe Rogan (2:35)
Pollution, cars, trucks, vehicles.
Tom Segura (2:37)
Helicopters.
Bert Kreischer (2:41)
You go to Vietnam and they're burning their trash in their front yard.
Ari Shaffir (2:43)
Oh my God, it's crazy.
Bert Kreischer (2:45)
Everything we do in this country, it is a piss on a fire compared to what is happening in the rest of the world.
Joe Rogan (2:52)
Well, just the thing is that you can't save the world by not eating meat, just to let everybody know.
Tom Segura (2:56)
Right, the meat thing is that.
Bert Kreischer (2:58)
Coming from the guy who just shot a one ton elk.
Joe Rogan (3:00)
Well, that animal's a wild animal. That has nothing to do with animal agriculture.
