#870 - Bert Kreischer

Joe Rogan (0:03)

Day 1 of Legal Marijuana, Bert Kreischer. Does it feel any different? Does it feel less naughty?

Bert Kreischer (0:08)

No, I'm just worried that they're going to clog up the dispensaries.

Joe Rogan (0:12)

The people will?

Bert Kreischer (0:12)

Yeah, because now you have to use to wait in the waiting room sometimes.

Joe Rogan (0:15)

Right.

Bert Kreischer (0:16)

And now that it's going to be legal, I don't know how they're like one in, one out thing. It's going to be a fucking nightmare.

Joe Rogan (0:20)

Are they allowed to just open up now the general public? Is that how it works?

SPEAKER_3 (0:23)

I was just looking right before we started. I think they have until 2018 to start issuing licenses.

Joe Rogan (0:28)

2018? What?

SPEAKER_3 (0:29)

The current dispensaries can only sell to their current patients.

They can't sell to people walking in off the street. They're going to have to change some rules.

Joe Rogan (0:36)

Oh, but 2018 before they start giving out licenses?

SPEAKER_3 (0:39)

They have until that long. They can push it until that long.

Joe Rogan (0:43)

Oh, if they wanted to hold back and dig their heels in.

Huh, interesting. So we have at the very most a year before it just becomes like Colorado. Colorado's got them wild.

SPEAKER_3 (0:55)

That's how long it took when it happened in Colorado too. It took them about a year before they figured everything out.

Joe Rogan (0:59)

Have you been down and gone down to the areas of Colorado where they're selling pot now?

SPEAKER_3 (1:04)

Yeah, I went with you.

Joe Rogan (1:06)

Right, but did you, we didn't go down to any of the stores.

SPEAKER_3 (1:09)

Oh yeah, I went to a couple of stores on my own without you, I guess, yeah.

Joe Rogan (1:12)

Yeah, I haven't. I've driven by them, but I haven't gone in and checked them out.

But that's what's gonna happen here. It's gonna be crazy. And it's gonna be better for everybody. It's gonna be better for the economy. It's gonna be better for people.

Bert Kreischer (1:24)

My wife doesn't smoke weed at all and voted yes. I'm good.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. She voted for yes to Prop 7064 That might have been my favorite moment of the whole night last night.

Joe Rogan (1:37)

Yeah, that's pretty awesome.

Bert Kreischer (1:39)

By the way, I give 100% credit to Jamie. That was like, you gave me an ace in the hole. I was sitting off the side. I didn't even have a mic at the time, I don't think.

And Jamie just goes, breaking news and hands me his phone. I wasn't even reading it off the phone, but I grabbed the mic and I go, guys, I have breaking news.

Prop 64 has been passed in California. The place went nuts. Joe lights a joint. I rip my shirt off, start slapping the stage.

Joe Rogan (2:02)

Bill Burr took a hit.

Bert Kreischer (2:03)

Bill Burr gets high. Bill Burr gets high.

And he had passed that joint, like he had passed him a couple times and he was like, I'm good, I don't smoke pot. I'm a whiskey guy. And then he was like, fuck it. Took a legit hit.

Joe Rogan (2:18)

Yeah, he was stoned too. That was st-wrong weed. That's that LA. Speedweed shit. I don't know what strain he's got, but good Jesus, Lord have mercy.

What a night.

Bert Kreischer (2:30)

Such a beautiful night.

Joe Rogan (2:31)

That was probably the most fun I've ever had on a podcast. I've said that before because we've had some fun once together. Oh yeah. But that one might have topped it off. I don't think I've ever laughed any harder. Like Burr had me laughing harder than, I mean, it's just as hard as you can laugh.

It was so fun, everything was fun.

Bert Kreischer (2:49)

Yeah. Burr had me, you had me with that line, like did you guys see that picture of Trump looking at his wife voting and you were like, that's the look, what did you say?

Joe Rogan (2:59)

I said that's the look I give my dog when he gets too close to my cat. Hey motherfucker, leave her alone.

Bert Kreischer (3:05)

It was, that whole show was so quick. It was so, it was literally like, like they were doing Double Dutch with comedy. And you had to know when to jump in and when to hop out.

And I said this to you this morning or this afternoon, that first 100 hour and 33 minutes was not that much talking over each other.
