Jim Breuer (0:08)

All day.

Joe Rogan (0:16)

Good to see you, my brother.

Jim Breuer (0:18)

You too, man. I feel like I'm seeing like a high school friend.

Joe Rogan (0:23)

I know.

Jim Breuer (0:24)

And I've been at a high school for a long time.

Joe Rogan (0:26)

Well, when we met, we were like fresh out of high school. When we met, we were in our early 20s.

Jim Breuer (0:30)

Yeah, we were really young.

Joe Rogan (0:31)

Yeah.

Jim Breuer (0:32)

We were young.

Joe Rogan (0:33)

Bro, we've been friends for like 31 years.

So crazy. Maybe 32, might be 32 years.

Jim Breuer (0:40)

Yeah, I've been married 31

Joe Rogan (0:42)

Yeah.

Jim Breuer (0:43)

And I wasn't married, I was with the same girl. And so that was at least 31, 32 years ago.

Joe Rogan (0:48)

At least 31, 32 years ago, yeah.

Jim Breuer (0:54)

And you cracked me up then and you crack me up now.

Joe Rogan (0:57)

We had a good fucking time. We had a good time back then. We had a good time last night, dude. Last night was so much fun.

God, the club is such a fun hang.

Jim Breuer (1:05)

I love seeing you enjoy life. I love seeing you enjoy life and watching you.

It's like, what I love about you is you've never changed and you always, you love comedy. You love standup comedy. And to see you just eating, breathing, talking, living, loving standup. Bro, you would fucking go in the main room. I'd get there.

Crushing. Crushing. I'm watching the balcony like a 15 year old going... Bro, that felt good for me. You know, when you're able to watch another guy and laugh your fucking balls up, and then you come inside, and then you're talking more comedy with all the dudes in there, and then you go in the little room, and you're telling me, because I'm way out of my element last night. I was just like this whole time, like what the fuck is going on right now?

SPEAKER_4 (2:14)

Holy shit.

Joe Rogan (2:14)

You slipped right into it, come on man.

SPEAKER_4 (2:16)

Well, I did, but I was-

Joe Rogan (2:18)

You felt like you belonged at that place. Huh? You felt like you belonged at that place. Like immediately, the moment you went on stage, we were in the balcony watching you. I was crying.

That was the best impression of me I've ever seen anybody do.

SPEAKER_4 (2:31)

Well, it's fascinating watching you.

SPEAKER_5 (2:33)

Ridiculous I am.

Jim Breuer (2:35)

Well, I mean, the green room and you're just, you're, you're just, you know, the guys are talking about fighting and you're just like, just, just every movie, you're like, dude, you've got to go slow, it's repetitions.

SPEAKER_4 (2:45)

You go wah, wah, wah, and then wah, wah, wah, and then you start going, but, but, but, but you always stay right here.

Jim Breuer (2:49)

And all of them will watch it like, I'll watch it like, dude, you could, you could sell me probably going into the UFC for this one fight.

Fucking captivating. It was a, I had a, I really had a good time, but I, I gotta say.

Joe Rogan (3:05)

Well, a lot of those guys are getting into martial arts.

Jim Breuer (3:07)

Huh?

Joe Rogan (3:07)

It's a lot of those guys are getting into martial arts.

Cause like guys are trying jiu-jitsu. It's, it's really interesting because it's like, they're realizing like there's something to that. There's something to doing that thing, that very difficult physical thing. It makes you better at other stuff.

Jim Breuer (3:22)

I want to do it and I didn't commit to it yet because I know.

Joe Rogan (3:26)

Just go with Joey.

Joey loves it. Joey Diaz, he does jiu-jitsu all the time.

Jim Breuer (3:31)

He's in Jersey, right?

Joe Rogan (3:32)

Yeah, you're not in Jersey anymore. You're in Florida now. There's plenty of places in Florida I could say.

Jim Breuer (3:36)

There is plenty.

Joe Rogan (3:37)

Oh my God. Florida is filled with like high level jiu-jitsu.

Jim Breuer (3:40)

But what I was going to say was knowing what you're capable of definitely adds to everything about you, the way your whole day goes about. It creates a fearless, if that makes sense.

Joe Rogan (3:56)

Well, it's just like it gives you more of an understanding of other stuff.

Like if you get good, it's a thing that's hard to do. It gives you a better understanding of how to get good at other stuff.

And just life in general, having a difficult thing that you do in your life, I think, makes the rest of life easier. I really do. I think we're just... Humans are so adaptable, man. You look at people that live in horrible conditions and they seem fine, like you ever see these videos of these villages where these kids are playing and there's just dirt, there's nothing else, and they're just kicking around a homemade soccer ball, laughing and giggling?
