Joe Rogan (0:04)

The Joe Rogan Experience.

Bridget Phetasy (0:14)

I said, we're just gonna catch up. It's been a year.

Joe Rogan (0:16)

It's been a year, yeah.

Bridget Phetasy (0:17)

And you've been trending on Twitter for that entire year.

Joe Rogan (0:21)

It's not my fault, this fucking dorks. Get out of the house, losers.

Go pay attention to real life shit.

Bridget Phetasy (0:28)

Every time I go out.

Joe Rogan (0:29)

While Fauci's out there torturing puppies. You see that shit?

Bridget Phetasy (0:33)

Did you read that article? I didn't read the article, I shut up. I can't look at puppy torture.

Joe Rogan (0:37)

What are they learning from torturing? Pull up the article, Jamie, because people need to know this. Because I put it up on Twitter, but this is sick shit. Glenn Greenwald texted me about this, and he was kind of explaining that it doesn't help anything.

There's no benefit to this.

He's like, this is not something that's saving lives. If you could prove this was saving lives, he goes, maybe you can make some sort of ethical argument for doing this, but it doesn't save lives. It's just not. It's twisted, and I don't understand it.

Bridget Phetasy (1:11)

I just thought I should have used that.

Joe Rogan (1:12)

Bipartisan legislators demand answers from Fauci on cruel puppy experiments. Our investigators show that Fauci's NIH division shipped part of a $375,800 grant to a lab in Tunisia to drug beagles and lock their heads in mesh cages filled with hungry sandflies so that the insects could eat them alive.

Bridget Phetasy (1:37)

I feel like in a normal society, this guy would just be completely retreated from the public by now.

Joe Rogan (1:43)

How is this possible? How is it possible, first of all, that now it's been proven, the NIH has now come out and said, he lied. He lied in front of Congress about gain-of-function research. They funded gain-of-function research at the Woolhand Lab that worked on coronaviruses in the very fucking area where a coronavirus got out and killed four million people with cleavage sites that were inserted into it that seemed to indicate that it's been manipulated. Like all these indications.

Bridget Phetasy (2:11)

Yeah, there were, by the way, all conspiracies.

These were all just conspiracies. Have you even suggested any of this? That it came from a lab, that it was funded, all of it is now true. And no one says sorry.

Joe Rogan (2:24)

It's how I got trended on Twitter.

It's one of the ways I got trended on Twitter from when Brett Weinstein was on. Brett was saying this, that it seems to indicate. This was in April of 2020 Brett was saying it seems to indicate that this is a virus that's been manipulated. And everyone was like, that is a dangerous conspiracy theory, and it's racist.

Racist conspiracy theory. Meanwhile, it's actually accurate. And it's our own government was involved, which is the most fucked up thing. Because as things have been uncovered, as Josh Rogan uncovered it, Josh Rogan played a very big part in this. Because Josh Rogan recognized that he was one of the first people, and he actually broke it on this podcast, that Fauci was the one who restarted the gain of function research that Obama rightly and smartly had said, hey, stop doing that shit. The fuck are you doing? And so then Trump came along and said, this is important research. We need to try to kill the world.

Fuck. This is so crazy. This is not... Like, if you go to all these mainstream news places, they're not saying this. How are you not saying this?

Bridget Phetasy (3:36)

They don't understand why they've lost all their credibility, and yet, they behave as if the internet doesn't exist.

Joe Rogan (3:44)

Well, how is CNN not covering this? Go to the Fauci story, because it is so crazy. Because when you watch Rand Paul grill him, and he's like, With all due respect, Senator, you do not know what you are talking about.

Bridget Phetasy (3:57)

You do a good impression of him.

Joe Rogan (3:59)

I could do a better one if I listen to him. If I listen to him for like 10 minutes, I can really get him.

Bridget Phetasy (4:03)

I remember that Rand Paul recently was like, someone owes me an apology.

SPEAKER_4 (4:07)

What are you doing?

Joe Rogan (4:09)

I don't know what you said. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. There was another one in my Twitter that in a shocking turn of events, the NIH has now admitted, which is interesting, because if they're admitting that they funded game-to-function research, that means they're turning on that little monster. So if they're turning on him, that means we might actually see some progress here and a real objective understanding of what's happening.
