Joe Rogan (0:04)

The Joe Rogan Experience. Seen one? That's an NFT.

Shane Dorian (0:16)

Oh, very cool.

Joe Rogan (0:17)

Did you ever know? Sort of.

Shane Dorian (0:20)

I've never seen a physical one like that.

Joe Rogan (0:22)

That's a visual representation of an NFT.

Shane Dorian (0:24)

A physical digital one.

Joe Rogan (0:26)

Yeah, I mean, the actual NFT, does that come with that? Do I have to like scan it?

Shane Dorian (0:30)

Is that you and Marshall?

Joe Rogan (0:32)

No, no, that's Elon. It says Giga Chad.

I don't know what Giga Chad is.

Shane Dorian (0:39)

Maybe we should save this for the podcast.

Joe Rogan (0:40)

We are podcasting.

Shane Dorian (0:41)

Are we?

Joe Rogan (0:42)

Yeah, it's rolling.

That's how we roll. But it's this guy, Beeple. Do you know who Beeple is?

Shane Dorian (0:48)

I do know who Beeple is.

Joe Rogan (0:49)

Beeple was here the other day.

Shane Dorian (0:50)

No way.

Joe Rogan (0:51)

Yeah, he gave me that. It's the shit. He's cool as fuck. He's a fun guy.

Shane Dorian (0:54)

I can't wait to hear that one.

Joe Rogan (0:55)

He's really fun.

Shane Dorian (0:56)

His art is badass, dude.

Joe Rogan (0:59)

I mean, he puts out a piece every day.

Shane Dorian (1:02)

I didn't know that.

Joe Rogan (1:03)

One piece of artwork every day, and he's done that for 12 years.

Shane Dorian (1:06)

Some of the stuff he did, like I follow him on Instagram, like after he sold that one for $60 million. I was like, who the hell is this dude, right?

So I did the full deep dive in his Instagram and stuff. And above your normal feed, when you look at all the boxes, there's all the different things you can click on. There's past stories and stuff.

He had this really neat digital moving art of these big babies with weird people's heads on them going through the streets and wild out there stuff. But it was cool, man. So creative and insane.

Joe Rogan (1:41)

Yeah, all of his stuff is like that. It's all just really true. But it's so funny when you talk to him. He's like, people are trying to find mini hitting meaning. I don't know what the fuck it means. He goes, I just made it. I don't know what it means.

He had one of them with a bunch of dicks on missile silos, and they were dicks. He goes, it's just a bunch of dicks. I don't know what I'm doing. There's no fucking hitting meaning. It's just dicks. Look at this.

Shane Dorian (2:03)

Yeah.

Joe Rogan (2:04)

Hillary and Trump, and they're spraying milk as they walk down the street as a robot. Look at this one.

Shane Dorian (2:11)

It's so insane.

Joe Rogan (2:13)

But that's all of his stuff. It's all really bizarre.

Shane Dorian (2:16)

Wow.

Joe Rogan (2:17)

But so interesting.

Shane Dorian (2:18)

Yeah, this one is the one with Zuckerberg.

Joe Rogan (2:21)

Yeah, with tits and a robot spider-looking thing body.

Shane Dorian (2:26)

I mean, look at this one. It's intense, dude.

Joe Rogan (2:29)

Look at this one.

Shane Dorian (2:30)

It's intense.

Joe Rogan (2:31)

It's a Trump mask, and it's spraying stuff out of its vagina hole, giving birth to Hillary Clinton. It's like, what the hell, bro?

Shane Dorian (2:38)

Yeah, it's kind of disturbing, but super creative and cool. Like, the art is incredible.

Joe Rogan (2:44)

Look at this one. Jesus Christ.

It's way more palatable when you meet him. You're like, oh, you're not a serial killer.

Shane Dorian (2:51)

What?

Seriously, right? And like, where does he get his inspiration? Is he just like on acid all day long?

Joe Rogan (2:58)

No, he's just an artist. I mean, he actually like was panicking when I gave him a glass of Scotch. Wow. Oh, Jesus. Oh, boy. What are we doing here?

Like one glass of whiskey, and he was a little nervous, right?

Shane Dorian (3:11)

His mind.

Joe Rogan (3:12)

Oh, his mind's brilliant.

Shane Dorian (3:13)

That's crazy.

Joe Rogan (3:14)

Well, he's just a great artist. And he's also like super dedicated. I mean, he puts out one of those every single day.

Christmas, New Year's, Halloween, doesn't matter, every day.

Shane Dorian (3:25)

Isn't that weird if you asked 100 different people in America if they know what an NFT is and know how to explain it?

There's be such a low percentage that actually would. And yet, like this dude named Beeple, like sold the most expensive artwork in history, right?

Joe Rogan (3:42)

Well, yeah, it's not the most expensive artwork, but it's the most expensive NFT. The most expensive artwork as well.
