Joe Rogan (0:00)
God publicist with you, huh?
Jon Jones (0:02)
Yeah, she didn't want me to do this without, at least.
Joe Rogan (0:05)
Definitely don't chew that on the air. Boom, we're live.
People are gonna get mad at you chewing that on the air. They're hearing it right now. They're like, god damn it, Jon Jones.
Jon Jones (0:13)
Almost finished.
Joe Rogan (0:14)
You had all this time.
Almost finished. You gotta finish that fucking thing. That's an athlete. That's someone who works out a lot. There's like, there's imperatives, right? You gotta get that food in there.
Jon Jones (0:23)
Nutrition is key.
Joe Rogan (0:24)
It is key, but that's shit. What are you eating? What is that?
Jon Jones (0:27)
A cane bar thing.
Joe Rogan (0:28)
That's, oh, bullshit.
Jon Jones (0:29)
Oh, it is, but.
Joe Rogan (0:30)
Is that a good one? Is that one, one's with the five grams of sugar, or one of them caramel fake candy bar type jammies?
Jon Jones (0:36)
Yeah, five grams of sugar, definitely. A little closer to that.
Joe Rogan (0:41)
Jon Jones, how you doing, brother?
Jon Jones (0:42)
I'm on the road, you know, okay.
Joe Rogan (0:44)
I understand. I gotta get you some stuff to bring with you, man. Bring some good ones. You ever, you ever fuck with that guy, Primal Kitchen, his stuff? He's got some great stuff. I'll give you some before you leave.
Jon Jones (0:55)
I'd love to try it.
Joe Rogan (0:56)
Yeah.
You're doing the number one thing that people get mad at on this podcast. When we do Fight Companion Podcasts, it's chewing. People get furious.
There's something about being in someone's ear, like my daughter was in my ear last night, and she was chewing, she was trying to sit on my lap, and she was chewing in my ear. And I'm like, this should not be bothering me. Like, why is this bothering me? I was having an internal dialogue. I'm like, honey, you're eating in my ear. And her, she's like, what do you give a fuck? So I'm eating in your ear. I'm your baby, you asshole. What do you give a shit?
Jon Jones (1:26)
How old is your kid?
Joe Rogan (1:27)
This one that was on my lap was six.
That's my youngest. I have three.
Jon Jones (1:31)
Oh, great.
Joe Rogan (1:32)
I got a 20, I got an eight, and I got a six. You got a 20 year old? Yeah.
Yeah.
Jon Jones (1:37)
Good for you.
Joe Rogan (1:38)
How many you got?
Jon Jones (1:39)
I have four.
Joe Rogan (1:40)
Whoa, Jon Jones.
Jon Jones (1:41)
Yep, eight, I went nine, eight, six, and three. All girls.
Joe Rogan (1:46)
It's crazy, right?
Jon Jones (1:47)
Yep, I'm gonna sound so bad.
Joe Rogan (1:49)
Jeremy Stevens says it's the fighter's curse.
Jon Jones (1:51)
I've heard that.
Joe Rogan (1:52)
Yeah.
Jon Jones (1:52)
Badasses get all girls.
Joe Rogan (1:53)
Mark Coleman, all girls. I think Don Fry's got all girls.
Jon Jones (1:58)
Yeah, I want a son. So there's a surgery that you can do. Uh-oh. Where I guess they take my semen and they take out all the girl hormones or whatever, chromosomes, inject it into the wife, gives you like a 90 something percent chance of getting a little boy.
Joe Rogan (2:13)
Really?
Jon Jones (2:14)
Uh-huh.
Joe Rogan (2:14)
Is that legit? Have you Googled it?
Jon Jones (2:16)
I've heard a lot about it. I haven't Googled it, but if it's a possibility, I think we're going in that direction for the next one.
Joe Rogan (2:22)
Yeah, see, that's one of those things that I would Google. I would make sure that it's not some horse shit created by some dude who just wants to collect your sperm.
Jon Jones (2:29)
I feel like, I think I heard Kanye did that to get a boy the second time.
Joe Rogan (2:34)
Oh yeah?
Jon Jones (2:35)
And Kim, yeah.
I don't know. I was obviously gonna look into it extensively before even trying to go in that direction, but that's the plan. Hopefully it's real.
Joe Rogan (2:45)
Wouldn't you think in some way, now I'm not really too much of a spiritual, well, I wouldn't say I'm spiritual, but I don't believe in, I don't, how do I phrase this? Would you worry that you would anger the gods by trying to fuck with DNA?
Jon Jones (2:59)
That's so funny. That's a great question. So I actually thought that, because obviously I'm a religious guy, I thought that my theory has always been, God is gonna give me a son when I am mature enough to raise a man, to teach a man how to be a man. So that was always my thing.
