#1984 - Brian Redban

SPEAKER_2 (0:04)

The Joe Rogan Experience.

Brian Redban (0:17)

Nice spacesuit.

Joe Rogan (0:17)

You have a nice spacesuit as well. Cool. Why did you choose blue?

Brian Redban (0:21)

I don't know.

Joe Rogan (0:21)

The silver one's a little tense.

Brian Redban (0:23)

Yeah, it's a sweat box.

Joe Rogan (0:25)

It's weird how warm they get.

Brian Redban (0:26)

Yeah.

Joe Rogan (0:26)

It's like one of them emergency blankets. Ever seen them? Those little thin silver ones, like how can that help you?

Brian Redban (0:32)

Yeah.

Joe Rogan (0:32)

I guess it does somehow. It maintains heat.

Jamie Vernon (0:35)

Mm-hmm.

Joe Rogan (0:37)

What's it like being a club owner?

Brian Redban (0:38)

What's it like to be a club owner to you, sir?

Joe Rogan (0:42)

It's weird. Who would have ever thought?

Brian Redban (0:44)

I know. That makes no sense.

Joe Rogan (0:45)

When we started doing this podcast, that one day we'd both be club owners.

Brian Redban (0:48)

Right next door to each other.

Joe Rogan (0:50)

That's what's hilarious. Yeah. And people are like, do you, does it bother you, the Redban, open up a club, three doors down? I'm like, no, it's great.

Brian Redban (0:57)

It's great because it's, you know what it's like?

You have two rooms, like you have your beautiful big boy or whatever.

But that to me is the main room. Yeah. Fat Man is the main room. And then your other one, I think, is the OR. And I feel like mine's kind of like the belly room because it has the same, like, you know, the same kind of shows that are in the belly room, the same kind of like the comics are experimenting with new things over there. So it's kind of like the main three now. I always think it's kind of cool.

Joe Rogan (1:25)

Well, we have so many good spots just on that one street. I mean, Vulcan is just a few doors down.

Creek in the Cave is just a block away. It's crazy. It's like, and when you're in town and when different comics are in town, like Voss was at the Vulcan and then he came by and did My Club. And then, you know, all these different people are doing that, just going back and forth and it's great.

Brian Redban (1:47)

Yeah.

Joe Rogan (1:47)

It's awesome. I fucking love it.

Brian Redban (1:49)

Yeah, it's, and I think it's because there's no major sports teams here, right? You know, so there's, there's music and comedy are the big things in this town, so.

Joe Rogan (1:58)

I think the music set everybody up for going out to see live shows.

Brian Redban (2:02)

Yeah.

Joe Rogan (2:02)

Because it's like a culture of going to see live shows in this town that was established by people going to see music. There's so much fucking, Alice Bullard got ripped off.

Brian Redban (2:12)

Did you see that shit?

SPEAKER_6 (2:12)

They were in South Carolina, I think.

Joe Rogan (2:14)

Fucking cunts. What happened? Dirty thieves. They stole. Yeah, they're broken in his trailer, stole his guitars, his amps, everything. And now he's got three more shows and no equipment.

Jamie Vernon (2:25)

I saw that.

Joe Rogan (2:26)

So is it Alice Bullard Music on Instagram? I think he's going to put up a GoFundMe. He's got to go out and buy guitars.

Oh, look at that guitar, too.

Jamie Vernon (2:36)

Fuck.

Brian Redban (2:38)

You know, that's the kind of guitar, though, that when somebody tries to sell it, it'll probably get back to them.

Joe Rogan (2:43)

Well, hopefully because of this, we'll tell everybody, but it's, what is it, 1979 guitar? Is that what it said? Is that Dobro?

SPEAKER_6 (2:52)

Yeah. It's an Eastman 10D Dobro, two Telecasters and a Custom.

Jamie Vernon (2:57)

Fucking scumbags.

Brian Redban (2:58)

It couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

Joe Rogan (3:00)

Oh, he's the best. He's talented as fuck, too.

Jamie Vernon (3:03)

Yeah.

Brian Redban (3:03)

There it is. 1979 Dobro.

Jamie Vernon (3:05)

Yeah, man. That's ugly.

Joe Rogan (3:08)

There's some scumbag musician that'll buy that knowing it's stolen.

SPEAKER_6 (3:11)

Right.

Joe Rogan (3:14)

Desperate people.

SPEAKER_6 (3:15)

That sucks.

Joe Rogan (3:15)

Yeah, thievery is just so gross. It's amazing how little there is, though. You know, I was thinking about that the other day about car accidents. People suck at driving. But God, it's amazing how few car accidents there are.

Most people, every day, just moving around, no car accident.

Brian Redban (3:29)

It is weird. And you always have to have trust in everybody, too. Like there's sometimes when you're driving by the semi and you're like, okay, I hope you see me.
