With no more interruptions, here is the exclusive clip.
Rogan is doing a podcast with Tom Segura.
He's doing his podcast with Tom Segura.
And Segura opens it in a funny way.
And then Rogan gets to kind of sound off on all the people that have been very critical of the drugs that he took to keep himself alive.
While he had COVID.
While he had COVID.
Run that clip, Al.
The Joe Rogan experience.
Well, well, well.
If it isn't old horse worm Rogan.
I'm glad you're well, man.
Bro, do I have to sue CNN?
I don't know.
Do you?
They're making shit up.
They keep saying I'm taking horse dewormer.
I literally got it from a doctor.
It's an American company. It's a
They won the Nobel Prize in 2015 for use in human beings. Yeah, and
CNN is saying I'm taking horse dewormer. Yeah, what so they must know that that's a lot
There's a lot of people saying it right but a lot of people can say okay like the internet says it who cares sure
But CNN is saying it. Jim Acosta.
I meant like USA Today, a few other places.
Yeah. And they're talking about ivermectin, right?
So what, because I don't know, I just saw so much news about you.
I mean, I would talk to you and check on you and see if you're all right.
And you're like, you threw the kitchen sink at it, you said, which was stuff that, you know, you took IV drips and what was it? Mono, what? iv drips and was it mono what mono monoclonal
antibodies and that what is monoclonal antibodies the shit they gave trump okay yeah um okay do you
think you should sue cnn it would be fun it would be fun and they did i guess that's slander huh
or libel if it's written yeah yeah i'd be curious to know what like the legal precedent is because
like it's one of those things where technically...
He didn't clarify that he was taking the one for human beings.
I mean, but that should be understood, right?
Yeah, but in the legal sense.
So that's what I'm wondering.
I doubt that there's a legal case.
No, there's no legal case.
But I understand what he's saying.
And basically, just to clarify for everybody out there,
is that ivermectin is also prescribed for human beings right and they won a nobel peace prize for it now ivermectin is
in much greater quantities a horse dewormer right so when you take it as a human you take much
smaller quantity but if you hate joe rogan and you don't like his stance on the vaccine you don't
like his politics of course you're going to use every opportunity to make it look like he takes
fucking horse pills. Right.
So CNN posting it other places.
I think Jamie was saying like USA Today was posting it.
These types of places.
It is kind of crazy that they would just run with that because you know that they're politically aligned with the opposition of Joe Rogan.
So you know that they're doing it to slander him.
But they found a nice little caveat where they are allowed to do that.
They're not even just politically aligned. He threatens their kind of existence a little bit,
which is this whole alternate news
source that people go to. Podcasts in general
have become like this third-party news source
that a lot of people get their news from.
And we're not all getting it from NPR or
the fucking Daily that Alex listens to.
So they're thinking,
we gotta get this guy out of here. I was off of Daily, I can tell.
No, I still do Nah
You used to come through
With facts bro
Every single day
You had no facts at all
You had information
I usually have to catch up
Like towards the end of the week
I'm not listening anymore
So you're listening
To two week old news
Like man
We pulled out of Afghanistan
I wish you talked about this
On the podcast
That's crazy
Nah but he used to come in
Ready bro
He'd listen to his little
Fucking daily
Come through
Yeah and then I would get too much criticism for being liberal.
So I chilled out.
Still do it.
You're like, government, look at my underwear.
Nah, but I chill out in a little bit.
Not as much.
I got to give him some doses.
Like Ivermectin.
Give it in doses.
Yo, I just think it's like, let's just be honest with what it is.
That'd be really nice.
It'd be really nice if a newspaper just came out.'re like we don't like this guy yeah so we're gonna
bash him and every opportunity we have we're gonna bash him right you're like a magician dude you
can't reveal that it's all fucking nothing but it's so close like they're it's all so close i
feel like everybody's revealed it except them it's like everybody it's what is it the emperor's new
clothes it's like everybody knows that they're naked but they refuse to acknowledge that they're naked fox news cnn all them like we
know you're political leaning right stop saying we're the truth yes say we're what makes you feel
good this is right wing candy left wing candy you need some left wing candy come to us because
we're going to give you the left wing feel good story every time i give credit to msnbc and fox
news i don't think they say they're impartial i don't think they say they're impartial. I don't think they say they're like
not biased. Fox's slogan is
the real news
or the truth.
It's in the slogan. The place for the
truth. Just tell us what
the fuck it is and I'd be much happier because I'd go
okay, 8 o'clock, I'm gonna
read what the left gotta say. 9 o'clock, I'm
gonna read what the right gotta say. Boom, I'm ready
for my day. I'll make my own decision right here in the middle you don't have to be in
the middle it's fucking hard we tried to do it it murdered us we did it for months and it was so
fucking difficult to do to thread that needle every single day i understand why both of them
don't they're basically comics comics just come through the premise right they're like hey why
are dudes bad yeah boom tell us and then other people go why are
women bad boom tell us right much easier it's a much easier way to make a living way more
entertaining huh it's way more entertaining to watch yeah watching objective shit is boring it's
facts we're feelings we like feelings dude that's why that's why honestly fox news is so fucking
entertaining because they will find a way to just defend anything.
And somebody will come on that show and they will do it.
They will get someone.
It doesn't matter what the fuck it is.
They will get someone to come out there and be like,
yep, totally understand why you had to shoot those people in the head.
Yeah, they're Americans, but they stayed in Afghanistan too long.
They'll just find a way to defend whatever the fuck it is,
and you're like, oh, how is he going to do it?
It feels like you're watching a comic.
It really does.
And I just care less about the left-wing argument.
It's just not as interesting,
just like I care less about the left-wing argument from a comic.
Like, if they're going to go up there and be like,
we need equal rights for everybody.
It's easy.
Okay, yeah, sure, great.
It's easy.
Obviously.
Jump off the high dive.
Defend your rights.
Tell me why midges shouldn't get library cards.
Make an argument that is so fucking absurd that I'm going to want to keep listening.
So of course the right-wing media is going to run the internet.
It's just way more digestible.
It's fun.
It's sweet.
It's candy.
Even if you don't agree with it.
I wonder how many people just watch it like, let me see what these crazy motherfuckers say.
I really wonder.
Of course the left-wing media shit is dying, right?
Because you don't have Trump to push back against.
And everything that is...
When Joe Rogan is your Trump, you're reaching.
That's right.
They're trying to make Joe the Trump.
When Joe Rogan is your Trump, you're reaching.
And I was thinking about how you don't get sued.
I guarantee you they cleared that headline with legal.
With legal.
Whatever the legal department was.
Can we say this?
It is technically a drug that gets used on horses sometimes yeah so we have it it's so funny to
see like the grifters who just like made all their their money and they may got all their clicks off
of trump just scramble for their new bad guy all right guys we're gonna take a break from this

Join the asshole army.
Let's do it.
You need either a skill or a bad guy.
I mean, the right does it too so much.
Of course, they all do it.
It'll be like AOC's quiet and they're like, fuck.
Fuck.
Ilan Omar, do something.
Bury your brother.
Critical race theory. Exactly. The right does it all the fucking time. And you see right through it. It'll be like AOC's quiet and they're like fuck Ilan Omar do something. There were your brother critical race
Exactly the right does it all the fucking time and you see right through it now
It's just really fun to see them argue the wildest shit
Yeah, you know you see a YouTube clip and it's like Tucker Carlson sit in there and he's like why the immigrants are responsible for
Fentanyl and you're like, I'm gonna watch
This guy's going for it. I want to see him get there. But this guy's going for it. I want to see him get there. This is a crazy.
It's the same reason you watch comedy.
It's like, what is it?
What is it?
Chris Rock's whole bit.
We got to get rid of guns.
No, we got to make bullets expensive.
You're like, okay.
That's a decent idea.
I like it.
Where are we going with this?
Where are we going?
The more salacious the premise, the more interesting it's going to be.
Chris Rock defended the fucking Columbine shooters, I think, or something like that.
That's three on three and a half court. It is. That's going to be. Chris Rock defended the fucking Columbine shooters, I think, or something like that. That's three on three and a half
court.
That's half court basketball.
We could watch that. So maybe
it's just more interesting to watch
even though it's not there. But yeah, you're right.
The fucking right griffs, the left griffs, and they
fall the fuck apart when they
don't have someone to push back against.
And it's so true.
And everybody has to be a threat to
your fucking existence everybody aoc is a threat to freedom donald trump is a threat to freedom
this country can't survive without they vilify these people and now when you're reaching at
joe rogan like he's a threat to fucking the nation it's just the craziest shit the guy literally just
brings on people who are experts in their field and goes how do you feel about this yeah they say
it he has an interesting discussion ask the questions that we would ask because we're not
fucking scientists that are dissecting ivermectin every single day does it kill me is it good for
me can it help me if i have bad cold you just ask these questions and then all of a sudden somehow
he's some like villain go also he said by the third day he felt almost completely fine so
something he took worked.
Give me that shit.
None of us felt better with COVID after three days.
He said, I was on a drip for three straight fucking days.
I was in a goddamn hospital.
Mark got it twice.
Allegedly.
Allegedly.
I was depressed in a pool house.
Really, though.
That was the toughest part of COVID.
Dude, can those things go together?
Like, what a bougie bitch this guy is, right?
I was depressed in a pool house.
Sounds like a Drake lyric, dude. That tracks. Never call me. things go together like what a bougie bitch this guy is right i was depressed in the sounds like
a drake lyric dude never call me in the boathouse certified never move the router so i get the wi-fi
shitty wi-fi yeah and you saw the rolling stone retracted their article about the ivermectin
thing dude what did they say how is there no punishment for this yeah go on yeah so basically
they published a story suggesting that at a hospital in Oklahoma, they talked
to a doctor who was allegedly working there and he told them that they were refusing gunshot
victims because they had so many people that were overdosing on horse strength ivermectin.
And then it got published by the Rolling Stone and then hundreds of other like news outlets,
like both, like just all over.
Yeah.
This is the best part.
They ended up finding out that that doctor hasn't worked there in a few months.
But no one did the due diligence
to follow up.
What the fuck is journalism, dog?
They're just sluts. They're only fans.
They're only fans for COVID news.
That's all Rolling Stone, CNN.
You're only fans for facts.
The only fans for facts, but it's not even facts.
Fox News, all of them.
What's the most salacious story? Where's the candy?
Where are the sweets? How do I give the people the sweets? They're giving you titties of facts. Fox News, all of them. What's the most salacious story? Where's the candy? Where are the sweets?
How do I give the people the sweets?
They're giving you
titties of facts.
That's it.
And it's one thing
when you're a person
on like fucking Instagram
and you're like,
hey,
I'm doing my news thing.
Here's my opinion on this
or here's what I think of this.
It's another thing
if you're an established news brand.
And you're telling,
saying you're the truth
and on top of that,
you're hiding behind your brand.
Yeah.
So you're not like a person
putting your neck out
as an independent journalist
being like,
yo,
here's what I think this is. You're just like your brand. Yeah. So you're not like a person putting your neck out as an independent journalist being like, yo, here's what I think this is.
You're just like a faceless entity, this giant institution that's basically saying like,
here's information.
And they do nothing to correct the misinformation, right?
They put the header saying like, technically, this is this.
But they've done the comparison tweets, like the tweet that says that the hospital is turning
away gunshot patients for people that are ODing on ivermectin gets 10,000 retweets.
The header that says they fucked up the story
gets 20.
Max.
So you're not really doing the due diligence.
And here's the thing,
they can't because their business
is run by interest and retweets.
Nobody's retweeting that the story was fake.
You're retweeting that the story confirms your beliefs,
which are ivermectin,
people taking that to be good and beat COVID, bad, right?
But they're eroding their own trust slowly
and they can't help it.
You have to do it.
This happened real quick on that.
It makes me feel like people,
exactly, it makes me feel like
people don't care about trust.
I cared about, I care about trust.
I used to think that's what it was.
Like I can trust that this place
is going to give me the truth, right?
But I think people just care
about feeling good.
So it's just like, how can you
confirm my feelings? You don't need to be the most
trusted news source. You need to be the most trusted
source that's going to confirm my feelings.
Is Joe Rogan a bad guy? Who's going to tell me
he's bad today? Yes, I'll go to you.
And I guess, because I was thinking
the term news, inherently
it should be truth.
But I think now we don't even care. The news
is just something to echo what we like.
Echo what we feel. And the same thing happened
on the right side with the dogs
in Afghanistan. Do you remember this?
No, tell me. Basically there were all these dog kennels.
Oh, I saw this. Fuck me up
this picture. It's the same exact thing.
Such a right wing news. This is great.
Basically there's all these dogs. They're
military canine animals that are all in these
different kennels
sitting in what looks
like an airport hangar.
And there's probably
like 10 kennels
all kind of stacked
on each other.
And then the picture
got posted on the internet.
And then the title
that came with it is
US troops and Joe Biden
are leaving these dogs
to die in the kennels
at the hands of the Taliban.
Yeah.
I got sent that
by right wing friends.
This is what these
fucking frauds do.
And if you do have a dog, you care about dogs, right?
You're like, how the fuck could this animal do that?
It's the worst thing ever.
It kills you in a way that no other crime does.
It's like you're going to leave a dog to die,
starve in a cage.
It's like the most inhumane thing you could even think.
And then Pentagon came out and they were like,
yeah, this isn't true.
This is an erroneous report.
We're not going to just leave dogs in a kennel. we would euthanize them or whatever but like they're like
we're not just gonna leave them there to starve wait a minute did they kill him no no they said
no they said they took him back but they were like they did take him back they were just like
it makes no sense so they didn't even fact check the story that's just thing is it's a perfect
example it's like a girl taking a picture where she looks skinnier and her tits look fatter than
they actually really do she's like oh it's going on a gram oh you mean like all pictures every
picture yeah exactly and it's like that's what it's going on a gram. You mean like all pictures? Every picture? Yeah, exactly. And it's like, that's
what Fox is good with. Did Fox post it?
Everyone posted it. But yeah, every
right-wing news source, right? And all the right-wing
grifters and all the... And I got sent that by
a friend who's the number one don't trust the media.
They're all full of shit, but he's a right-wing
motherfucker going crazy.
And now this has to be a fact. It's of course
what I feel. Exactly. Because you're
waking up going, why is Biden bad?
Yeah.
And they're going all these news sources going, please tell me why he's bad.
He doesn't like dogs.
He just left the dogs.
Oh, he served in the military.
He's like, I can't believe I wake up in pain every day for this.
Like this motherfucker was going off.
You know why?
You know why they ran with that story?
Why?
I bet you they ran with that story because the Cuomo leaving his dog at like the governor's palace story.
Cruz, right? No, Cuomo left
his dog at the governor's palace or whatever.
Apparently, allegedly. I don't even know if that's true.
But that story, murdered.
Because everybody was, fuck Cuomo. You had
the left and the right saying, fuck Cuomo.
Because the left was all like, how dare he touch women?
And the right's like, he's a
Democrat.
But both of them are like, we care about dogs, right? That story, murdered. I guarantee there's somebody at the right's like, he's a Democrat. But both of them are like, we care about dogs, right?
That story murdered.
I guarantee there is somebody at the right wing news sources who are just sitting there
like, oh, we got a dog story?
You run it, Beck.
It's Uncle Burke.
Run it.
Also, Cruz.
Space Jam 2.
When Cruz ran to Cancun, he left his dog.
Everybody was like, how the fuck you leave your dog?
Why would you do that?
Dog stories hit.
Bro, dog stories hit you differently, man.
That shit sucks.
Actually, the dog stories
might be the stories
that actually bring us together.
Because they're the most
pure and innocent and good.
Every human
has done some shitty things.
A dog don't know no better.
He gets his shit on a carpet.
Worst thing he does.
Worst thing he does.
Doug loves dogs, man.
It's his favorite thing.
Don't get me started.
When Doug's going out
to New York
stealing your dog.
This is a three times a week situation that we're in.
What's that?
Borrowing the dog.
You're going to borrow three times a week?
Yeah.
Just make sure it shits so that I don't have to wake my girl up in the middle of the night.
The hardest part was making it not touch.
You need to give me the dog with Xanny's.
No, I'm going to give you the, what's it called?
What?
The Zapper.
Oh, I thought you like Xanny's, like the drug.
Yeah, yeah.
We need that drug.
Just walk around with a little squirt bottle and some water.
Just shoot it.
No, his girl actually, they had the little collar and she's like, I don't think you want
to walk around with that thing.
So the animal, they'll be judged.
I want to be judged.
Yeah.
Like Charlemagne always says, like the truth isn't important when the lie is more entertaining.
Exactly.
Like that's just life at this point.
Son, what if for like six months we all just told the truth? more entertaining. Exactly. That's just life at this point. Son, what if for like six months,
we all just told the truth?
Or not even we.
Like, don't fucking trust us for the truth.
Trust us for fun.
We're going to make every story the most fun.
Feelings, no facts.
It's feelings, no facts.
Please say that again.
We are not a fucking news source.
Don't come to us for the news.
Come to us to hear the funniest takes about a story.
That's what we're going to do.
Okay?
And sometimes we'll fail miserably in that,
but we are going to talk about it. We're going to give you feelings, no facts.
