Do, do, five, four, three, two, one. Young Jamie gave me the fake gun pointy finger. So we're live, Chris Ryan. How are you, brother?
Christopher Ryan (0:11)
I'm live, I'm live. It's good to be live, Joe.
Joe Rogan (0:13)
You haven't gotten any of this interdimensional child molester weed yet.
Christopher Ryan (0:16)
I've been probed. I don't know who was doing it, but somebody was probing me interdimensionally, I'll tell you that.
Joe Rogan (0:22)
We were just about to talk about getting Alex Jones high on the podcast before we started, and I said, save it, you gotta save that.
Christopher Ryan (0:28)
Well, see, I'm not that tuned in to who he is. I just hear, occasionally, Alex Jones is this right-wing conspiracy guy, and I never listened to him. So I saw he was on your show, and I was working at home doing some shit around the house, so I put it on YouTube so I could actually see him like doing this, taking his things off, the headphones on and off, and oh my god.
And for the first hour, hour and a half, I was like, fuck, this guy, about half of what he says actually kind of makes sense to me. And he's obviously really smart. Like, I cue off the fucking charts, no doubt. But then he would just veer off occasionally.
And the more weed and whiskey got involved, the more it was just like, this is performance art. This is just nuts. This is beyond nuts.
Joe Rogan (1:17)
Once he started, right before the podcast started, he's like, man, I want to get a drink. And he went into there and he had some whiskey. Did he have some whiskey before I got here?
Jamie (1:24)
Might have been right as you got here.
Joe Rogan (1:27)
Right as I got here.
So I was already here and he's like, before we get started, let me get a drink real quick. And he went back and I had a drink with him. I'm like, listen, I'm not gonna let him drink alone. We're gonna do this right. But it was a dangerous proposition because Eddie Bravo was here. And Eddie Bravo is Mexican. And Joey Diaz says that Mexicans are basically Native Americans, which he's right. There's Mexicans that were Native Americans that bred with the Spanish. You would know more about this having lived in Spain.
And so that's why.
Christopher Ryan (2:00)
And I've bred with Mexicans and Spaniards. I'll breed with anyone.
Joe Rogan (2:05)
Well, not breed, but attempted breeding.
Christopher Ryan (2:07)
I've gone through the motions, yeah.
Joe Rogan (2:10)
But they look like some of them look like people from Spain and some of them look like Native Americans. It's kind of interesting. Like Mexico is a kind of really diverse sort of a genetic line.
But so, you know, the old stereotype about Native Americans, that you get them drunk and the Indian goes fucking crazy. Well, Eddie Bravo, who's Mexican, Joey Diaz is always saying, you get them drunk, that fucking Indian comes out. And that is exactly what happened. So we got Eddie drunk and he just went off the fucking rails with, he thinks the government's spraying shit in the sky and he's been saying it forever.
So much so that he's got this confirmation bias thing where he's constantly looking to confirm. So he just had this agenda that he had to talk to Alex Jones, even after he talked about interdimensional child molesters.
Christopher Ryan (2:56)
Right, and Obama's mother being a CIA sex worker.
Joe Rogan (3:02)
He's so crazy.
Oh, he's awesome. But I think people got a chance to see what I see in him because everybody's like, how could you be friends with Alex Jones? I'm like, I'm telling you, he's a great guy. He's a great guy. He's a lot of fun, and he's right about a lot of shit.
Christopher Ryan (3:17)
Well, the thing, alright, somebody emailed me this morning, and they're like, you know, because I'd said, I tweeted, like, hey, this guy's actually making sense. And they were like, dude, he's like, he denies the Sandy Hook massacre. Is that true?
Joe Rogan (3:29)
I don't know, is that true? That's horrible if that's true.
Christopher Ryan (3:32)
That's it. I mean, that's the kind of thing that for me, it's like, if he's denying that, then fuck that guy. He's saying, you know, Obama's mother was a CIA sex worker. That's just funny.
But the, I mean, I don't know.
Joe Rogan (3:43)
You know what I think? This is my take on him. And like I said, I love this guy dearly.
