Jamie (0:08)

Trained by day.

Joe Rogan (0:19)

An audience with the pod father, ladies and gentlemen. The original, the OG, without him, we would not be here. Adam Curry, ladies and gentlemen.

Adam Curry (0:27)

Joe Rogan, I have much man love for you.

Joe Rogan (0:29)

I have much man love for you, bud.

Adam Curry (0:30)

I have much man love for you.

Joe Rogan (0:32)

If it wasn't for you, this business would not exist.

Adam Curry (0:35)

Well.

Joe Rogan (0:35)

You're the fucking patient zero, my brother.

Adam Curry (0:37)

I appreciate you saying that.

Joe Rogan (0:39)

It's true.

Adam Curry (0:39)

Without you.

Joe Rogan (0:40)

Everybody needs to know it.

Adam Curry (0:41)

Without you, holy shit, I wouldn't have been re-certified.

Joe Rogan (0:45)

Someone needed to know.

Adam Curry (0:46)

It's highly appreciated, man.

Joe Rogan (0:49)

Go through the archives. Without you, you are the one.

Adam Curry (0:51)

How's Texas treating you? It's been what, now, is it two years?

Joe Rogan (0:54)

Fantastic. No, no, no, it's a year and a half.

Adam Curry (0:57)

Year and a half, yeah.

Joe Rogan (0:58)

Year and a half. Year and a half.

Adam Curry (0:58)

You like it?

Joe Rogan (0:59)

Fucking love it.

Adam Curry (1:00)

Good.

Joe Rogan (1:00)

You kids? Everybody loves it.

Adam Curry (1:02)

Yeah, good.

Joe Rogan (1:02)

Love the people here. I love everything. I love the fact that it gets cold. It's cold out today. I love the changing of the weather. I love the fucking animals everywhere.

Adam Curry (1:11)

You have actual seasons. People don't know that.

Joe Rogan (1:12)

Yeah.

Adam Curry (1:13)

We got seasons here.

Joe Rogan (1:14)

Texas gets cold as fuck. It was in the 20s last night.

Adam Curry (1:17)

When I left Hill Country this morning, 18

Joe Rogan (1:19)

Yeah. It's, woo, 18

Adam Curry (1:21)

With some wind factor. Yeah, yeah.

Joe Rogan (1:24)

When it snowed out here last year, I was like, okay.

Adam Curry (1:27)

Now, you didn't lose power, right?

Joe Rogan (1:28)

No, we got lucky. We got lucky.

Adam Curry (1:29)

No, you're on the rich side. I was on the east side.

Joe Rogan (1:32)

Oh, no, my rich friends lost their fucking power. My friend's way richer than me. He lost his power.

Adam Curry (1:35)

Oh, really? Well, where was he?

Joe Rogan (1:37)

He's in Westlake, I guess? Yeah.

Adam Curry (1:40)

Oh, yeah. Okay, Westlake. We were southeast before.

Man, that shit, where the section eight apartments are, that shit got turned off right away.

Joe Rogan (1:48)

Yeah, we got a generator now because of that.

Adam Curry (1:50)

Yeah.

Joe Rogan (1:50)

It was a little sketchy.

Adam Curry (1:51)

Ours is getting installed next week. Whole house generator.

Joe Rogan (1:54)

You know, it's nice to have food, too. You know, I always have food stockpiled because I'm a hunter.

Adam Curry (2:00)

I gotta tell you, man, food intelligence has got to be the buzzword for the next couple of years.

Joe Rogan (2:05)

Food intelligence is a good buzzword.

Adam Curry (2:07)

Because people, well, first of all, just look at us, you know, post-COVID or Omicron now, whatever.

We're pretty sick people. Americans are pretty unhealthy.

Joe Rogan (2:18)

Yeah, overall.

Adam Curry (2:18)

In general.

Joe Rogan (2:19)

Yeah, for sure. It's a real problem.

We've let it slide.

Adam Curry (2:23)

We don't know what we're eating anymore. We just don't. And you know, there's a lot of things happening with food that the and you'll appreciate this, the meat processors, they have no intention of really continuing actual beef and other real meat.

They are all moving towards processing soy, etc. creating I can't believe it's not burger, the fake meat, the fake pork.

Joe Rogan (2:48)

Really, all of them are doing that? All of them. But isn't that stocked down in that beyond burger stuff or beyond meat stuff?

Adam Curry (2:57)

Those are just the brands, but go look at really the food processors, only a couple of them. We have JB's, I think.

The biggest one is Cargill. I love talking about Cargill because they're like a secretive family, they kind of like succession.

Joe Rogan (3:10)

Oh, that's a great fucking show.

Adam Curry (3:12)

Or like the Sacklers, the same thing.

Joe Rogan (3:15)

Which ones are the Sacklers?

Adam Curry (3:16)

Purdue Pharma.

Okay, right, right, right. Who have helped kill a hundred thousand people.

Joe Rogan (3:20)

At least.

Adam Curry (3:21)

This year.

Joe Rogan (3:21)

This year, right?

Adam Curry (3:22)

By the way, isn't it interesting that on Hulu, there's a fantastic series. Dopesick.
