The Joe Rogan Experience.

Joe Rogan (0:13)

Hello Chrissy.

Chris Distefano (0:14)

Hello.

Joe Rogan (0:14)

Good to see you brother.

Chris Distefano (0:15)

Nice to see you.

Joe Rogan (0:16)

I like the shades.

Chris Distefano (0:17)

I know, I feel like Jeffrey Dahmer.

Joe Rogan (0:19)

Are those Anthony Aiden's?

Chris Distefano (0:20)

Anthony Aiden. Dude, Anthony Aiden, St. Mark's, Lower East Side.

I wanted to look like a 70s, 80s mobster look. That's what I wanted to go for. And Anthony was like, I got you.

Joe Rogan (0:37)

Oh yeah, you nailed it.

Chris Distefano (0:40)

Anthony Aiden, and he's one of those guys, he's like a MMA guy. So it's like, he's selling these nice glasses, but then he's got the cauliflower ear and he's always got bruises on his face.

Joe Rogan (0:49)

Yeah, I met him in New York, very nice guy. He gave me a beautiful pair of sunglasses with like rose colored shades.

Chris Distefano (0:55)

Yeah.

Joe Rogan (0:55)

They're very nice.

Chris Distefano (0:56)

They're transition lenses.

Joe Rogan (0:57)

Yeah, mine too.

Chris Distefano (0:58)

And the thing is with these, is this is, I'm going for it, right? And I've went a little crazy and I-

Joe Rogan (1:04)

You're going for it?

Chris Distefano (1:04)

I'm just going for it. I've said, you know what, enough's enough.

Joe Rogan (1:08)

Enough's enough.

Chris Distefano (1:08)

I said, I'm done, I'm putting on glasses, I'm wearing a watch. Wow, what kind of watch you got?

AP Royal Oak.

Joe Rogan (1:16)

Ooh, that's a nice watch.

Chris Distefano (1:17)

I just came, I talked to Andrew Santino and I said, I want to watch, and he sent me this link and I said, but what about that price? He said, if you're gonna do it, just fucking do it.

Joe Rogan (1:25)

Wow.

Chris Distefano (1:26)

And so he, and then I did it, and then when I sent him a picture of it on, he was like, dude, I was kidding. Like you, you just jumped like 10 steps. And then he said, what is, you're like a different Chrissy with these glasses. And I know I said to you before, I'm wearing them every day. I haven't taken the watch or the glasses off in about two weeks.

And I feel good about it now. I feel centered with who I am, but it does feel like, you know, month from now I'll look back and really regret this phase.

Joe Rogan (1:52)

Why?

Chris Distefano (1:53)

Cause I think that, listen, I'm having fun.

Right now it's no regrets, but I'm just saying I know the way my mind works. And I think I'm probably going too hard, too fast. Like I just, you know, the glasses, the watch, you go, I got a tour manager. I don't need any of this. I'm just going.

Joe Rogan (2:10)

Just keep going.

Chris Distefano (2:12)

All right, then I'll do it then.

Joe Rogan (2:13)

Yeah, you need a coach.

Chris Distefano (2:14)

Yeah.

Joe Rogan (2:14)

You need someone in the corner going, keep going kid. Keep going.

Chris Distefano (2:17)

I ate a bag of chicken skin in the green room.

Joe Rogan (2:19)

Look at you. Look at the fucking look. I like the new look.

Chris Distefano (2:23)

Dude, cause you know what this is too. You know what happened is I started.

Joe Rogan (2:26)

It's a glow up.

Chris Distefano (2:26)

It's a glow up. That's what it is.

Joe Rogan (2:28)

Yeah, you're glowing up.

Chris Distefano (2:29)

It's a glow up. I'm like Elliot Page, glowed up.

Joe Rogan (2:31)

I think you look great.

Chris Distefano (2:33)

I appreciate that.

Joe Rogan (2:34)

You got a fucking bracelet on too?

Chris Distefano (2:35)

Dude, I'm not, I've completely went insane.

Joe Rogan (2:38)

That's not insane. You're making a little cash. You're doing well.

Chris Distefano (2:41)

And you know what?

Joe Rogan (2:42)

Netflix special's doing well.

Chris Distefano (2:43)

That's it.

Joe Rogan (2:43)

Everything's good. The kids touring, the kids making some shackles.

Chris Distefano (2:46)

The kids doing.

Joe Rogan (2:47)

Let's go.

Chris Distefano (2:47)

The kids doing Radio City Musical, folks.

Joe Rogan (2:49)

The kids doing Radio City Musical, folks.

Chris Distefano (2:52)

September 22nd. I mean, that's, see, for a New Yorker, that's like, that's the thing.

Joe Rogan (2:57)

That's the place.

Chris Distefano (2:58)

You go to Radio City and it's been amazing. Yeah, and it's been amazing. We sold 4,500 tickets the first week. So that's amazing. It's like mind blowing for me.

Joe Rogan (3:08)

That place is so, didn't Roy Jones Jr. have a fight there once?
