#1405 - Sober October 3 Recap

Joe Rogan (0:02)

Shut up, you'll be fine.

And we're live. So, the last few weeks, we've been getting these annoying text messages from Ari, where everything's in Spanish.

Tom Segura (0:12)

Everything.

Joe Rogan (0:13)

Everything. How long is this joke going to go?

Ari Shaffir (0:15)

En escuela.

Joe Rogan (0:16)

And then he gets here with a backpack on, like, where you been? I was in Medellin. Medellin. You were doing a Spanish immersion thing?

Ari Shaffir (0:25)

Yeah, 100% Spanish. I brought back these Cuban cigars.

Joe Rogan (0:28)

Wow.

Ari Shaffir (0:29)

In Colombia.

Joe Rogan (0:30)

So did you have any Spanish speaking lessons before you went to Colombia?

Ari Shaffir (0:33)

Zero.

Bert Kreischer (0:35)

It sounds like zero.

Ari Shaffir (0:37)

It does sound like zero. It's a pretty close language. A lot of it's pretty close.

Joe Rogan (0:41)

So zero?

Ari Shaffir (0:42)

No, I had nothing.

Joe Rogan (0:43)

Zero is zero?

Bert Kreischer (0:44)

Yo hablo espanol también. Gladdle.

Jamie Vernon (0:47)

Yeah.

Ari Shaffir (0:47)

You also understand a little bit.

Joe Rogan (0:48)

Tom, you're doing a podcast in Spanish.

Jamie Vernon (0:50)

Yeah, yeah.

Bert Kreischer (0:50)

Yeah, this is his Me Too pack party. Like when Tom gets Me Too'd in America, he's going to go run to do shit without a Latin man.

Tom Segura (1:00)

I'm setting up the escape plan right now, man.

Joe Rogan (1:02)

The other countries are like, what's the problem?

Tom Segura (1:04)

The Latin countries would have no problem. I've had this conversation multiple times. How Latin people are like, me what?

Bert Kreischer (1:15)

We were talking to his cousin who lives in Peru, and he called his cousin, and there's a term, Latinx, which is not Latino or Latina, it's, you know, it's a gender neutral way of saying Latin. Yeah, yeah.

And he says to his cousin in Spanish, you know, tu sabe Latinx? And he's like, oh, oh, maricón?

Tom Segura (1:42)

I'm like, you know, it's a gender neutral. So you're saying, he goes, like a faggot?

That's not exactly what I'm saying.

Ari Shaffir (1:51)

My teacher, we were talking about like parents, something like that, and there was like the word for parents is just like fathers, pretty much.

So then it's like, what if you have two mothers? Do you call it madres as parents, instead of like, you know, if it's just father, it's padre, if it's just mother, it's madre. But if it's parents, it's padre. So I'm like, do you, it's just like gay. And she was like, no, still padre. And then, you know, that's okay these days.

It's okay. It was herp, like as poor as she could be. Like, that's fine, though. Yeah.

Bert Kreischer (2:22)

What country do you think is most in the dark ages with wokeness?

Joe Rogan (2:26)

Russia.

Bert Kreischer (2:27)

Oh, yeah.

Joe Rogan (2:28)

Yeah. Russia, they make laws about gay people.

Bert Kreischer (2:32)

They did, well, for the Olympics.

Ari Shaffir (2:33)

Iran has, according to their leader, 0% homosexual population.

Joe Rogan (2:38)

Yeah, Iran's in other words. Iran's worse than Russia because Russia has people that are outside of the control of the government that are just freely speaking, that are talking about homosexual problems and like pussy riot. Remember when pussy riot was getting in?

Yeah.

Bert Kreischer (2:54)

They're fucking hot.

Joe Rogan (2:55)

You like that?

Bert Kreischer (2:56)

Yeah, I got to think about that.

Joe Rogan (2:57)

Fuck them dirty.

Ari Shaffir (2:58)

I think arrested chicks right out of jail.

Tom Segura (3:00)

Russia don't fuck around, dude.

Joe Rogan (3:02)

No, they don't fuck around. They don't fuck around.

Tom Segura (3:03)

At all.

You know, there's a kind of a selling point from them that they're trying to be progressive thinkers. Some of them will disguise it as that, but they're definitely, they're not fucking around.

Joe Rogan (3:18)

Someone from Russia, some government agency made a tweet about freedom of the press.

Tom Segura (3:24)

What'd they say?

Joe Rogan (3:25)

About respecting the press and appreciating the press. And someone, some journal said, this is a country that has literally, like this administration has literally been responsible for murders of dozens of people that are journalists.

Tom Segura (3:42)

Yeah.

Joe Rogan (3:42)

Like when people would report on them or people would running, running against certain members of the government, they would just whack them.

Tom Segura (3:50)

Sure.

Joe Rogan (3:50)

In broad daylight.

Tom Segura (3:51)

And even more disappearances, which is slang for murders.

That person's just gone. We haven't seen them.

Ari Shaffir (3:57)

We just don't want to explain it. So I don't know.
