Joe Rogan (0:03)

Salute, gentlemen.

Joey Diaz (0:05)

Happy birthday, my brother. To many more.

Joe Rogan (0:08)

Thank you, young Jamie.

Thank you. Thank you, all. Whoo!

Joey Diaz (0:13)

Tremendous.

Joe Rogan (0:14)

53 spins around the sun.

Joey Diaz (0:15)

I have not fucking had a drink of the whole fucking...

Joe Rogan (0:19)

The whole COVID?

Joey Diaz (0:20)

The whole COVID. Not even, I didn't drink before that either.

Joe Rogan (0:23)

No, you weren't much of a drinker.

Joey Diaz (0:24)

It's fucked. Every night I go home, I'm gonna have a make up, because Heineken makes it light, five points.

Tremendous.

Joe Rogan (0:31)

They make a double zero that actually tastes good. Zero alcohol, Heineken has, for sure, the best non-alcoholic beer. It tastes like fucking beer. Like if you were an alcoholic, you'd be like, oh my God, I fucked up.

Like you know how you have those, like I like old duals, it tastes good, but it doesn't taste like beer. A cold old duals is delicious. I like those non-alcoholic, I do. Some people don't like them, I like them. Like a cold one is really nice. But you know what you're doing.

With the Heineken, they kind of trick you. I don't know what the fuck they're doing. They're doing some weird shit. Because it tastes like beer.

Brian Redban (1:06)

Well, beer is like a taste kind of.

That's why duals work. It's kind of like that smoke juice you put in meat. Oh, that's the taste of smoke.

Joe Rogan (1:13)

Right, or like watermelon gum. That shit don't taste like watermelon.

Brian Redban (1:17)

It's still good.

Joe Rogan (1:17)

But you know what it is.

Joey Diaz (1:19)

It's so crazy how beer, like I grew up on six packs and eight packs.

Eight packs with eight ounces nips. You got a case of nips or a case of beer. And then you went out to Colorado and they had 3.2.

Joe Rogan (1:33)

3.2?

Joey Diaz (1:34)

Alcohol.

Joe Rogan (1:35)

Low alcohol beer.

Joey Diaz (1:35)

If you're on the, between 18 and 21

Joe Rogan (1:38)

Oh really?

Joey Diaz (1:38)

That's what you have to drink. Then when you turn 21, they give you the full dose.

There used to be a club on the hill, I forget what it was, in the University of Boulder, downstairs. And that's what they served you, 3.2 beer.

Joe Rogan (1:52)

Right around the time I was turning 18, was the time they made it 21 years old. I'm pretty sure. Find out when they did it in Massachusetts. When did Massachusetts make the drinking age from 18 to 21? I feel like I missed it by like a year or two.

But probably for good. They were like, Jesus Christ.

Brian Redban (2:08)

I remember that when I was in elementary, people were mad about that.

Joe Rogan (2:11)

Yeah, at least make it harder for them. Fucking animals.

Joey Diaz (2:14)

Thank you for the COVID test.

Joe Rogan (2:15)

My pleasure.

Joey Diaz (2:16)

I did the blood test.

Joe Rogan (2:17)

Okay, it's 1979, they've raised the drinking age from 18 to 20

Huh, but when was it 21? Okay, 84, Dukakis. Exactly, okay. So 84, I was 17 That son of a bitch. And he raised it from 20 to 21

Joey Diaz (2:33)

Dukakis also fucked up. He gave out furloughs to prisoners and wanted to escape and kill somebody.

So when I got into a halfway house.

Joe Rogan (2:40)

Wasn't it?

Joey Diaz (2:41)

Somebody, when I got to a halfway house, everybody was mad at Dukakis because you couldn't have furloughs no more. Oh.

He used to furlough prisoners.

Joe Rogan (2:49)

But it was Willie something or another, right?

Joey Diaz (2:52)

I forget the whole story, but I know that people in prison were furious because they couldn't go to fucking unfurloughs no more.

Joe Rogan (2:59)

That poor guy.

Joey Diaz (3:00)

Because Dukakis let them go for like four days, like a fucking, you know, like club med for four days. He's a fucking prisoner.

I ain't gonna let him go to club med. And that was the end of that tune.

Joe Rogan (3:10)

Well, they're releasing a lot of prisoners right now because of COVID. They're opening up the doors.

Joey Diaz (3:16)

18,000 in California.

Brian Redban (3:18)

Did you hear that one that just...

Joey Diaz (3:19)

That came out of jail and shot the motherfucker who accused him.

Brian Redban (3:22)

Yeah, yeah.

Joe Rogan (3:24)

Yeah, I don't know if this is the best idea, kids.

There's a lot of those people who are very violent. Like, it depends on what you're letting out. If you're letting out some dude who sold weed, you should have let him out a long time ago. You know, you're letting out some guy who's selling mushrooms. Let that guy out. Don't keep him in a fucking cage with people who are murderers.
