Joe Rogan (0:19)

Everybody who came to the show last night, thanks for coming out. Sorry we couldn't stick around. I've had a stomach bug since Thursday. I was severely worried that I was gonna shit myself during the show.

I was worried I was gonna shit myself during the UFC. During the UFC, I didn't eat all day. And then right before, I'm like, god damn it, I gotta eat something. Yeah, my stomach's been fucked.

My kids had some sort of a bug, some sort of a flu. The whole house had it. My wife had it. My daughters had it. And I didn't get it until I got to Vegas. And on Vegas, I worked out with De La Grate Thursday, and I was burping and farting. I was like, what is going on? And in the middle of the night, I woke up, I was like, oh, this ain't good. This is not good. And then the next day, I couldn't eat anything. I couldn't hold anything down. And right before the UFC, I said, I got to eat something. So I had some quesadillas. I just took a chance. And I was like, I might very well have to sprint to the shitter. So I got through that.

That was during the UFC. Yeah, I was severely worried I was gonna have to shit myself. But I pulled it off and then wrecked a bathroom afterwards.

You know, that time when you smell it coming out of your body, you're like, what in the fuck is in there? And then the same thing yesterday. I couldn't eat all day before the show, couldn't eat a goddamn thing. And then right before we were in the dressing room, I go, I gotta eat something. I'm tired or I feel kind of weak. So I had some cheese and some meat.

So that's why I didn't stick around after the show, ladies and gentlemen. But if you came, we had a good goddamn time.

Brendan Schaub (1:41)

I figured you got sick because you made like a bear meat fucking omelet or some shit. To your family.

Joe Rogan (1:46)

If I got sick from that, no, they everybody got sick from school, little kids, man, they just get sick.

There's a bunch of them together and they just somehow or another. You ever think about that? Like who who's the first person who got VD? There had to be one dirty motherfucker that was number.

Brendan Schaub (2:02)

There has to be a patient zero, a snotty nose kid.

Joe Rogan (2:05)

There's one person like VD, right? Like that had to come from an individual first, right? I mean, it's some every cold has to come from somewhere.

Apparently, a lot of the colds we get come from agriculture. That's why it's all like swine flu and shit like that.

Brendan Schaub (2:20)

I thought the white man brought it here to the Indians.

Joey Diaz (2:22)

We're like, hey, how you doing?

Brendan Schaub (2:24)

And then they're just sick as fuck and die.

Joe Rogan (2:26)

Dude, we went over that the other day in a podcast. 90% of all Native Americans were wiped out by diseases that they didn't have an immune system for when the Europeans came in the 1500s.

Joey Diaz (2:36)

Fucking white people.

Eddie Bravo (2:38)

Didn't more of them get actually killed in battles?

Brendan Schaub (2:41)

No, no.

Joe Rogan (2:42)

No, more of them died by disease, believe it or not. Fucking 90% of the population. It's really crazy.

Eddie Bravo (2:49)

Where'd you get that from, the library?

Joe Rogan (2:52)

We're not doing that today, Eddie Bravo. Ain't happening. We're not doing that today.

Eddie Bravo (3:00)

library.com, yo.

Joe Rogan (3:02)

So UFC 207, that was one of the craziest events of all time.

And watching that main event, it was surreal, because my body was all weirded out, because I was a little out of it, but it was about the shit all over my chair. But it was also, it was just, that was the least competitive main event, other than Aldo and McGregor, but that was one dynamic shot to the chin that knocked him out. Everything about that was off.

Brendan Schaub (3:39)

Can you think about another main event championship level where it was that kind of big of a discrepancy? You know what I'm saying? Like, it wasn't even a fight. And I think leading up to it, there were some kind of red flags that you saw leading up to it. If you think back now that we know that.
