Joe Rogan (0:04)

The Joe Rogan Experience.

Jamie (0:06)

Trained by day, Joe Rogan Podcast by night, all day!

Tim Pool (0:13)

How's it going, man? I'm so excited, it's been like a year and a half.

Joe Rogan (0:16)

Nice to see you. Last night was fucking chaos.

You can't have like 10 people with microphones in a room in a trailer.

Tim Pool (0:23)

It was good though, because Alex would just start screaming, ah, if too many people talked at once. So he was acting like that buffer.

Thanks for coming, man.

Joe Rogan (0:32)

It was fun.

Tim Pool (0:32)

It ended up being huge. We had like over a million people watch. Really? And it was a cacophony of crazy voices, and I don't know if anyone learned anything, but it was fun.

Joe Rogan (0:41)

I was just seeing Alex sitting next to Blair White, and then you and me and Luke, and it was just, it was wild.

Tim Pool (0:49)

Yeah, man.

Joe Rogan (0:50)

It was very fun.

Tim Pool (0:51)

Yeah, but seriously, thanks for coming, dad. When it came together accidentally, because one by one, everyone wanted to come on the show on the same day, I felt bad for Blair White because we had originally booked her.

And then at the last minute, I can't remember who it was, probably Luke, he was like, have you asked Joe? And I was like, he's got a comedy show, he's too busy. But if you don't ask the answers, always no. And then Joe's like, yeah, I'll come by, it'll be great.

Joe Rogan (1:12)

Yeah, I worked it in. We got in. I had a podcast before then, so we were with my friend Ben, and we were hammered. So we had been drinking and smoking weed, and we went straight over to there.

So it was silly.

Tim Pool (1:25)

Right on, man.

Joe Rogan (1:26)

It was quite silly.

Tim Pool (1:27)

So what's going on?

Joe Rogan (1:28)

Well, we're sitting here waiting for this Rittenhouse verdict, right? Which is apparently going to happen today, maybe.

And what's interesting to me is that people are framing this as a race thing.

Tim Pool (1:44)

From the beginning.

Joe Rogan (1:46)

And then many people are realizing now, because they're paying attention to the trial, that he actually shot white people.

Tim Pool (1:54)

Yeah.

Joe Rogan (1:55)

Like, there's many people that thought that this Kyle Rittenhouse kid had shot black protestors, when in fact it was white Antifa rioters. And then if you look at their record, they were all criminals.

Like the people he shot.

Tim Pool (2:12)

They were. That's a tough point.

You know, Joseph Rosenbaum, and I don't know how graphic you want to get, because do you know this guy's history? The first guy who attacked Kyle who died, do you know his history?

Joe Rogan (2:23)

Yes, I do. Good graphic.

Tim Pool (2:24)

Graphic? He anally raped children. I believe he anally raped one little boy, and he performed oral on several little boys. Apparently he would try and date single mothers to sexually abuse their children. That was when he was a teenager, and then he went to prison. I believe it was for 15 years. Now, the details here get murky. I don't know exactly. They say he got out of a mental hospital that morning. This guy was not Antifa. He was not Black Lives Matter, at least in my opinion. I think this is a guy who was suicidal. He was screaming, shoot me N-word, shoot me N-word over and over again. He attacked a kid with a gun who was screaming friendly, friendly, friendly and running away and then tried grabbing it. And then within.739 of a second, Rittenhouse let off four shots as Rosenbaum was reaching for his gun, as testified by Richie McGinnis, and he crumpled to the ground. And that's when these other guys, the whole mob, you know, Kyle runs for the police, and then the rest of the mob starts running after him, like, get him, cranium that boy, get him, get him, get him.

Anthony Huber is an interesting one, because he's the dude who hit him with the skateboard twice. People don't know this, because you'll hear from the conservatives, like, oh, he was hitting him with the skateboard, and you see that photo of Rittenhouse on the ground. Apparently, he hit Rittenhouse from behind with the skateboard before Rittenhouse fell.

He grabbed the gun.

Rittenhouse fired one shot right into his heart, killed him instantly. Gage Grosskreutz, the next guy, charged at Rittenhouse with a gun in his hand, and you wanna know where it gets really crazy? Grosskreutz testified on the stand that he told police and he believed Kyle Rittenhouse said, I'm working with the police as he was running down the street, because Gage Grosskreutz was running alongside him. Grosskreutz runs back, turns around and runs towards him, pulling his Glock 27 out from his waistband. That means Gage Grosskreutz, if he's telling the truth and he's probably not, believed Kyle Rittenhouse was a police informant or in some way working with cops, so he should draw his Glock 27 on this kid and run up to him, gun drawn.
