Joe Rogan (0:19)

He should probably wait is a funny thing for a cop to say.

Dan Auerbach (0:30)

It's so stupid.

Joe Rogan (0:34)

The dumbest of laws, without a doubt. The number one dumbest of laws.

There's nothing that's even close to that one. That one's so stupid. Well, all the shit that is legal.

Patrick Carney (0:46)

It's just a matter of time, I think.

Joe Rogan (0:50)

We can only hope. It's legal in like 20 states or something now. What is it, like 19 or something, Jamie?

23 23 states. Ridiculous.

But there's a lot of shit you can do here that you can't do anywhere else. You can have a zebra.

Dan Auerbach (1:06)

You can have a cult.

Joe Rogan (1:09)

You can have a cult. You can have a zebra. You can conceal carry with no license.

You don't have to have a concealed carry license here. It's constitutional carry. Yeah. So leave them a little.

Patrick Carney (1:22)

How many states have that? How many states have that?

Joe Rogan (1:24)

Quite a few now.

Quite a few. Florida has it. There's, I wanna say there's 19 states that have that now. Ohio just passed it. Well, you know, it's a lot of fucking crime going on out there. And there's some places where it's difficult to get a license to carry.

Patrick Carney (1:41)

Surprise though, in Ohio, they allow that.

Dan Auerbach (1:44)

Well, yeah, I'm not familiar with any gun law.

Ever, at all. I just don't have a gun. I have a pellet gun.

Joe Rogan (1:53)

Well, have you ever shot a gun?

Dan Auerbach (1:57)

Yeah, I did. It scared the shit out of me. I was a Boy Scout and stuff, but my friend bought a Mauser, is that what it's called? A German rifle.

I mean, this guy's kind of total character. He got into World War II reenacting.

SPEAKER_5 (2:13)

Oh no.

Dan Auerbach (2:14)

And was a Nazi.

SPEAKER_5 (2:16)

Oh no, oh no.

Joe Rogan (2:18)

Did he at least try to lose?

Dan Auerbach (2:21)

I don't know, man. And it was a whole different thing he would do that he never really discussed with us. We bought this Mauser and we took it to the range, indoor range, and the pin, I guess, was replaced to fire only blanks. So we were trying to shoot it, and it was hitting the bullet but not firing. So the guy at the shooting range was like, here, just shoot this. He handed us a, you know, like a nine millimeter or 45 semi-automatic, you know, with the magazine.

And he didn't really show us how to use it.

And I, you know, I emptied the thing into the range, and I've pulled it, the trigger, and just, you know, I thought it was done, and I handed it to my friend like this. He was like, what the fuck? And I was like, what? And he just pulled the thing, and there was a bullet in the chamber, and I was, I left the room, and I was, I'm done.

Joe Rogan (3:13)

Well, that's a scary thing. That makes sense.

But someone should 100% show you.

Dan Auerbach (3:19)

Yeah, that wasn't.

Patrick Carney (3:20)

Let's be honest, though. Most of the time, it's like that.

Yeah, a lot of times. I mean, the first time I ever fired a gun was like in a basement. Some guy had a gun, and he was shooting into like some homemade shooting range in the basement.

Joe Rogan (3:33)

I fired a gun once when I was real young, but then when I moved to California, I bought a gun and I went to the range. And I remember the first time I went to the range, the sound is so terrifying. Like when you walk into the, and you hear the boom, boom, and you realize each one of those could end your life easy.

And it's just happening all around you. And you're just like hoping these people next to you keep their shit together. Because like one of the ranges that I went to out in LA, it was like a rifle range, and it had a bunch of different ranges on it. It's a big outdoor place. One guy just went there and shot himself, like right after I'd been there. I was there like a week before.

Some guy just came there and decided this was going to be a good place to commit suicide.

Dan Auerbach (4:18)

I wonder why.

Joe Rogan (4:21)

I don't know. I don't know why you would do that. Or maybe he didn't plan on it, and then once he got there, he starts shooting guns, and he's like, you know what?
