Russell Crowe (1:22)

Showing by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day.

Joe Rogan (1:29)

What's happening, man? Pleasure to meet you.

Russell Crowe (1:31)

Nice to meet you too.

Joe Rogan (1:32)

It's always so odd when you've seen someone in so many movies and you meet them in real life. You're like, yeah, real person. You know, it's strange, isn't it?

Russell Crowe (1:41)

Yeah, well, you know, I do have that same thing myself. You know, when I meet somebody that I work, I dig or whatever, you know, I'm still just the same fan that I was, you know, before I even got into the business, you know. I met Daniel Day-Lewis in a Motel 8 in Canastoga, New York State. We, a guy saw us and he said, you know, do you mind if I take your photograph? So we went out into the car park of this Motel 8 and this guy took a photograph and about, I don't know, seven or eight months later, a copy of it arrived at my house in Australia. And the guy basically just, you know, written Russell Crowe Australia and sent it to me. So I have a copy of it. And it's a funny thing, you know, it was like, I was there, it was the boxing hall of fame. I was there with Angelo Dundee and he was there with Barry McGuigan. Yeah.

Joe Rogan (2:42)

Oh, wow. That's awesome.

Russell Crowe (2:47)

It was just unexpected. And, you know, it was it was a cool thing.

Joe Rogan (2:52)

He was such a nice fellow to Daniel Day-Lewis is a real legend because he's one of those guys just like disappears for a couple of years and make shoes.

Russell Crowe (3:01)

Yeah, just just a real artist, quirky stuff. And just suddenly comes back with, you know, a vengeance and a fury.

Joe Rogan (3:08)

Yeah.

Russell Crowe (3:08)

Oh, my God. Look at that.

Joe Rogan (3:09)

Yeah.

Russell Crowe (3:10)

He's you know, some of us have to work for a living, mate. You know, he's probably got independent wealth.

Joe Rogan (3:16)

He's just a different kind of human. You know, any guy who can just walk away like that and just decide to make shoes. Like that's a that's the real deal.

Russell Crowe (3:25)

It's pretty special.

Joe Rogan (3:26)

Some like some people try to pretend to be quirky. You know, they try to pretend to be eccentric. And then there's there's the real thing.

Russell Crowe (3:32)

The actual eccentric.

Joe Rogan (3:33)

Yeah, the actual eccentric is so fascinating to me. And yeah, for a guy like, you know, to meet a guy like that, he's one of those odd ones, but you are too. It's like, it's always, it's interesting to hear from a person that's, that is a guy like you, that still feels weird to meet people that are, you know, that you've admired their work. I always feel the same way. I always feel like this is going to go away. And then I'm like, no, Russell Crowe. Oh, wow. I met Dennis Quaid the other day. Same thing. It's like, oh, it's Dennis Quaid.

Russell Crowe (4:02)

Cool.

Joe Rogan (4:03)

It seems so strange.

Russell Crowe (4:05)

Yeah. If I was to explain to my, you know, childhood self, my 10 year old self, what was in front of me and the people that I would meet, and the things that I would experience and the contacts that have come along in my life, just my little brain would have just exploded. There's just no way I could have possibly imagined this life was going to unfold in front of me.
