Three, two, one. Later today, young Tim Dillon will find out whether or not he has the antibodies.
Tim Dillon (0:07)
Yes, yes. And if I do, I'm going to Wuhan to do a fun little video in a wet market. And eat a bat. If I have the antibodies, it's not...
Is it safe?
Joe Rogan (0:19)
I don't know what this is.
Tim Dillon (0:21)
Yeah, no one knows. We've never been in a time where literally nobody knows.
Joe Rogan (0:25)
I have a string of text messages from Alex Jones that will change your opinion if you smoke enough weed and you don't smoke weed. Were you ever a weed smoker?
Tim Dillon (0:34)
I smoked a lot of weed for a very long time. That's when I discovered Alex Jones when I was 13, when I was smoking weed, listening to him on the GCN network.
Joe Rogan (0:43)
But when you got clean, it wasn't weed that was a problem, right?
Tim Dillon (0:45)
No, it was the cocaine and the booze and the pills, but weed was always there.
Joe Rogan (0:50)
I've never been a cocaine user. I've never used it, but I do love that Buck Cherry song.
Tim Dillon (0:54)
Oh, yeah, it's great. It's great.
Joe Rogan (0:56)
It almost makes you want to do cocaine.
Tim Dillon (0:57)
It's a great drug. I mean, don't do it if you're having problems.
Joe Rogan (1:01)
But Alex left, I haven't even gotten to them, because I got the real... I changed my phone number not that long ago, and I change it every few months now.
Tim Dillon (1:10)
Yeah.
Joe Rogan (1:10)
And it doesn't matter.
Tim Dillon (1:11)
Do you get random texts from just anybody?
Joe Rogan (1:13)
Oh, yeah, random. Yeah. But this, these are all voicemail messages, and look at all these videos he sent me to watch, and all these websites. He's convinced that it's a weaponized virus that leaked from a lab.
Tim Dillon (1:29)
Well, there's a lot of people that are saying that in Wuhan, obviously, they have that lab, right? Whether it's a bio defense or bio research laboratory.
Joe Rogan (1:37)
Something there.
Tim Dillon (1:38)
Something's there.
Joe Rogan (1:39)
Something in Wuhan where the disease is originated.
Tim Dillon (1:42)
Now, this is kind of convincing that maybe there were people backdoor selling the animals that they were experimenting on to wet markets. Like if you're broke and you were a guard at the Wuhan lab, you're like, hey, I'm just selling bats and dogs for extra money.
And he sold maybe one of the wrong ones. And now we have this issue.
Joe Rogan (2:04)
Really? Where did you hear that?
Tim Dillon (2:05)
I mean, that's on the Internet, Joe.
Joe Rogan (2:08)
Well, as long as it's on the Internet. I mean, it's there.
Tim Dillon (2:10)
But I mean, but now every theory has as much weight as any other theory right now, right now.
Joe Rogan (2:16)
Well, there's some legit scientists that are actually like one of the things they found out is that the origins of the virus in New York City comes directly from Europe. Apparently, they can tell that interesting somehow.
Tim Dillon (2:31)
I have no idea.
Joe Rogan (2:32)
Find out how they can tell.
Tim Dillon (2:33)
Do they trace it back to like patient zero with the first part?
Joe Rogan (2:38)
I don't think so.
Tim Dillon (2:38)
They do some sort of tracing, right? Because that's the new. Yeah, I just love of Google and yeah, we're working together to get tracing software.
Joe Rogan (2:47)
See, that's that's what scares me. We talked about that the other day. If you have to have everything on your phone showing that you're positive, you know, you have to have a phone everywhere.
Tim Dillon (2:55)
You have to take out your car that you're positive to get into Apple base.
Joe Rogan (2:59)
Adam, you have antibodies sent me this this whole thing saying this is why I have a flip phone.
You know, Adam Curry, the original pod father, and he's saying that he won't. He won't do it. Yeah. Most coronavirus cases in New York City can be traced back to Europe, not Asia. Research shows. What is the research, though? What does it say? I mean, research tracking spread of coronavirus determined that the virus has been circulating in New York City for a couple of months since before the testing began. Genetic sequencing of virus samples indicates that most of the early cases in New York originated in Europe, not Asia.
So it's some sort of genetic sequencing. Research teams studied samples of the virus taken from 91 New York patients.
