#803 - Joey Diaz & Lee Syatt

Joe Rogan (0:00)

Hello, ladies and gentlemen, we're here with Lee Syatt and Joe Diaz. My name is Joe Rogan, and I host a podcast called The Experience. Dude, this poster you just brought me in, Joey Diaz just brought me in one of the dopest fucking things I've ever seen in my life. It is a poster with Leonard Skindred and The Rolling Stones. And we were talking about this on the way in here.

The Nebworth Festival from 1976, America's Confederate Rockers, Leonard Skindred, and then underneath it, it says, along with the best rock and roll band in the world, Britain's Own Rolling Stones. It was kind of weird because you got one band that's the headliner. They're the biggest picture. And then it says the other band's the best band in the world.

How high are we?

Joey Diaz (0:46)

No, it's just they didn't know. They had no fucking idea the power that these guys were bringing over. They had been on the road opening up for Ted.

Ted was a powerhouse in 76

Joe Rogan (0:59)

Ted Nugent? Oh, cat scratch fever.

Joey Diaz (1:02)

Oh, you know, free fall, cat scratch fever. And then the live album Stranglehold. To this day, nobody was messing with. He was hunting.

He was eating what he hunted. Nobody had heard these things.

Joe Rogan (1:14)

He was hunting with some shitty ass equipment, too. They had like old school archery bows back then, like recurves and like real shitty compound bows.

Lee Syatt (1:22)

Did he have like the whole compound then with like the animals and like the fakers?

Joe Rogan (1:26)

His family has had property in Michigan for, he's got a couple of places. He's got one place in Florida and he's got one place in Michigan. And they're both like these gigantic private hunting grounds.

He just took, he didn't do any coke. He just took all his money and he bought a, you know, just a giant chunk of land. And then he's got one in Texas now.

Joey Diaz (1:46)

No booze, no cigarettes, no nothing.

Lee Syatt (1:49)

He doesn't do any of that? He doesn't party at all?

Joe Rogan (1:51)

No, no. I think he drinks a little wine. He's fucking crazy.

But it's like when those guys try to debate him, like do you ever see Ted Nugent versus Pierce Morgan?

Joey Diaz (2:01)

No.

Joe Rogan (2:01)

On gun control?

Joey Diaz (2:02)

No.

Joe Rogan (2:03)

He lit him up like a Christmas tree. Cause Pierce Morgan didn't have all, Pierce Morgan is like, you know, he's a proper sounding British guy. But like when it gets to the fucking red line, when it gets to the red line of arguments, he falls apart. Like Ben Shapiro ate him up and Ted Nugent ate him up. A lot of the conservative guys that are like really slick, smooth talkers, they can eat him up when they get into the really like high revs of the conversation. Cause he didn't understand that a lot of the gun deaths is also bad guys that are shot by guns. Like people that are shot by cops, like all that stuff is sort of calculated in.

Like he didn't understand, he didn't have all his facts in order. So if you're arguing with a guy like Nugent, who does these kinds of arguments with people, like gun control arguments, he's got like his words down to a T. He's done a couple of these, did one of them in a gun store. They were in a gun store.

Yeah, sure, go ahead and play some of it.

Ted Nugent (2:59)

It's hilarious. I'm on a rock and roll stage. I just saw saying a song about feisty. I mean, you got to be kidding me on a rock. Did you ever see Richard Pryor live? How about Sam Kinnison? How about Lenny Bruce? I'm one of them. Get over it. That's some funny.

Piers Morgan (3:13)

For a man who is a who is a patriot, who purports to love his country, that was quite shocking disrespect to your president.

Ted Nugent (3:21)

Let me put it in official CNN. Piers Morgan gave you a term, shall I?

Piers Morgan (3:24)

Yes.

Ted Nugent (3:25)

My friend?

Anybody that wants to disarm me can drop dead. Anybody that wants to make me unarmed and helpless, people that want to literally create the proven places where more innocents are killed called gun-free zones, we're going to beat you. We're going to vote you out of office or suck on my machine gun. You can take it whichever way you want.

Piers Morgan (3:48)

Much as I'd love to suck on your machine gun, the whole point of your defense is that a lot of people do drop dead precisely because you are armed to the teeth and you'd like everybody else to be.
