#1987 - Jelly Roll

Joe Rogan (0:04)

The Joe Rogan Experience.

Jelly Roll (0:15)

Yeah, we're all fucked up. I can say fucked up shit, you'll say fucked up shit, we'll joke about it. You know, it's like, where if I go on fucking, like, do a billboard interview, you know what I mean? I gotta be like super, like, you know, yeah, this was a G to a D chord, and I thought really hard about that song, you know, where I can be like, yo, he's in there fucking off and got drunk and wrote it, you know?

Joe Rogan (0:32)

But there's something interesting about that too. Like, if you're talking to like a legit musician, I would imagine as a musician, it's fascinating just to have those kind of conversations too.

But like, for me, like, if I have a choice, I want to talk to comics.

Jelly Roll (0:47)

My favorite pods are yours are when you're with the homies.

Joe Rogan (0:50)

Mine too, yeah.

Jelly Roll (0:51)

I feel like that's when I get real inside, I feel like I'm watching y'all's green room. Like, when I watch you and a couple comedians do a pod, I'm like, I bet this is what's happening in the fucking green room.

Joe Rogan (1:02)

Oh, 100%. Well, you can go to the green room tonight. I'll show you.

It's essentially the same thing. It's exactly the same.

Jelly Roll (1:09)

Joe, went to Mitzi's finally.

Joe Rogan (1:11)

It's beautiful, right?

Jelly Roll (1:12)

God, dude. And what an ode to her, man. How fucking gangster. Just cool. You know what I mean? And the bar, it was like, I told Tony this last night, drunk 10 times. It was this thing that was like, I wish musicians would, but I took a page from y'all. So I bought 200 yonder bags, right?

And now on tour, my deal is, if you come back before the show, we'll take pictures, we'll do whatever you wanna do.

If you come hang out after the show, we're locking everybody's phone up.

Joe Rogan (1:41)

Nice.

Jelly Roll (1:41)

Yep, cause I just wanna fucking be president, and I wanna be able to fucking smoke a joint. I just wanna be able to be us. And that's all I seen in there last night was just a bunch of dudes being dudes.

But about what they do, you know?

Joe Rogan (1:52)

Well, you know, the thing is about everybody that hangs out in Mitzi's, they don't even, their phones are in their hands, and they don't use them. They were so used to just putting them down. The hang is so fun, and there's a sort of a philosophy through the whole room that gets enhanced by the fact that the audience has their phones in a bag. Like, you don't see phones everywhere. You don't see people just constantly on their phones, so people can just hang. And then you're also talking to interesting people, which is more interesting than the shit you're looking at on TikTok.

It's fun.

Jelly Roll (2:25)

And we're all present?

Joe Rogan (2:26)

Yeah, we're all present.

Jelly Roll (2:27)

No, it was awesome.

Joe Rogan (2:28)

It's just weird that we have, one of the things that I've realized about podcasts is I've spent so many times, so many hours talking to people, just having a conversation. And the only way is because I never look at my phone because it's locked up. Like, it's off, it's off to the side. You're right there.

We're sitting here with headphones on, so we're hearing each other's voices. It's like, you gotta almost put yourself in that sort of an environment to have conversations like this, to really be able to hang out and really be present.

Jelly Roll (2:57)

Exactly. And I love this, too, because your podcast has done wonders for, especially artists, because we don't have platforms to really do this, to really come sit down. Like, the first time I got to hear Stapleton talk for more than three minutes was on your podcast.

I'd only heard radio sound bites from Stapleton ever.

You know what I mean? So it was cool to actually dig into who Stapleton was. You know what I mean? So shit like that is like, everybody you've had on this podcast, music-wise, as a musician, we only get these little sound bite excerpts that a fucking publicist kind of rehearsed them and said, this is what we're looking for in this interview, you know?

Joe Rogan (3:32)

Yeah, no, I totally.

Jelly Roll (3:34)

Is this the Joey Diaz?

SPEAKER_3 (3:36)

Are we smoking the cocoa?

Joe Rogan (3:37)

That's the cocoa. That's the laughing gas.
