Joe Rogan (0:00)

Duh, duh, duh, duh.

Adam, motherfucking Eget. How are you, brother? Good to see you, my friend.

Adam Eget (0:07)

Good to see you, thanks for having me on.

Joe Rogan (0:09)

Please, I'm excited to see you.

Adam Eget (0:11)

Dude, I haven't seen anybody.

Joe Rogan (0:13)

I know, it's like, you're a long-lost friend.

Adam Eget (0:16)

It feels that way, but it also feels like you're literally the only person I've seen.

Joe Rogan (0:22)

Oh, you haven't left the house?

Adam Eget (0:23)

Not much, I go out on daily walks.

Joe Rogan (0:25)

Oh no, that's not good for the mental health.

Adam Eget (0:28)

Not good at all.

Joe Rogan (0:29)

How you feeling, you all right?

Adam Eget (0:30)

Yeah, I'm okay. I'm watchin a lot of Korean baseball. And, uh...

Because it's the only live sport available.

Joe Rogan (0:37)

Oh, they're playin in Korea already?

Adam Eget (0:39)

Oh, it's wild. There's stands, you know, stadiums are empty, but they have, like, cardboard cutouts.

Joe Rogan (0:44)

Oh, no they don't.

Adam Eget (0:45)

Cheerleaders with masks and, like, DJs. It's hilarious.

Joe Rogan (0:49)

Oh, wow.

Adam Eget (0:49)

But it's great, it's fun.

Joe Rogan (0:50)

That's so weird. So they use cardboard cutouts in the audience?

Adam Eget (0:55)

Just in, like, the front where the cameras are behind home plate.

Joe Rogan (0:58)

Oh, that's too strange.

I think I saw that in a movie once. There was a baseball movie, and you could clearly see that there was cutouts. Because have you ever seen what happens when they take old movies and then they port them over to, like, Blu-ray?

Adam Eget (1:11)

No.

Joe Rogan (1:12)

Ugh. One of the best example is Aliens, the second.

Adam Eget (1:17)

That's my favorite action movie of all time.

Joe Rogan (1:19)

It's a great fucking movie. It's a great fucking movie. I don't think it's as good a horror movie as the original one.

Adam Eget (1:24)

No, it's not a horror movie.

Joe Rogan (1:24)

Because the first one's a horror movie. Yeah, it's James Cameron. It's just fucking guns blazing.

Adam Eget (1:29)

It doesn't stop.

Joe Rogan (1:30)

Never stops.

Adam Eget (1:31)

It's the most adrenaline-fueled movie I've ever seen from beginning in. It just keeps progressively getting more intense and more intense.

Joe Rogan (1:37)

And you know what's great about those movies? The hero is a woman, and no one gives a fuck. Because they're so good. There's no like, oh yeah, it's a diverse movie.

SPEAKER_3 (1:48)

Exactly.

Joe Rogan (1:48)

It's amazing for women. It's a big moment for women. No, no, it's just Sigourney Weaver being a fucking badass, fighting the most evil monster movies have ever created.

Fuck yeah.

SPEAKER_3 (2:02)

That's the best.

Joe Rogan (2:04)

Yeah, I love that kind of like gender equality. When it's just equal because it's awesome and nobody even brings it up.

Adam Eget (2:12)

Exactly. Linda Hamilton in Terminator 2

It's like, are you fucking kidding me?

Joe Rogan (2:16)

You don't need to bring it up. Bro, she's doing chin ups. And you see her fucking back.

It's amazing. Amazing. That's what I like. You watch Ozark?

Adam Eget (2:30)

No, I tried. I watched the first four episodes, and then I didn't. Okay, so get back into Ozark.

Joe Rogan (2:35)

The two scariest bitches are women. The two scariest ladies in the show.

Adam Eget (2:40)

Okay.

Joe Rogan (2:40)

The two scariest people in the show are two women.

Adam Eget (2:43)

Not Laura Linney.

Joe Rogan (2:44)

No. No, but she's fucking great too.

Adam Eget (2:46)

She's great in everything.

Joe Rogan (2:47)

She's kinda scary too.

Adam Eget (2:48)

Oh, is she?

Joe Rogan (2:48)

She's kinda scary too. The decisions they're willing to make.

Adam Eget (2:52)

That's funny.

Joe Rogan (2:52)

Here's Linda Hamilton doing chin-ups. Fucking hell. This is pre-CrossFit, bitches.

There was no CrossFit back then. She was a goddamn pioneer. She's like, I'm not gonna fucking die. She's doing chin-ups.

Adam Eget (3:04)

In the first one, I had a huge crush on her, and in the second one, she terrified me. She was so fucking awesome.

Joe Rogan (3:09)

She's fierce. Well, she became more fierce, right? She adapted to the world of The Terminators, which doesn't seem that far off from where we're at right now. Not at all. We're like closing in on Terminator time.

Adam Eget (3:20)

Oh, definitely.

Joe Rogan (3:20)

Dude, there's a fucking article I was reading today about a bionic eye that will be available in five years that will be superior to a biological eye.
