Starting point is 00:00:00 Verano, verano, reciclar es tan humano Esa lata de aceitunas que te tomas a la una La crema que se termina cuando estás en la piscina El enbase de ese polo que no se recicla solo Y una lata de caballa que te coves en la playa La usaré las patatas y del refresco la lata Un enbase de paella y del agua La botella, como veces muy sencillo
Starting point is 00:00:24 Los enbases del verano Siempre van a la amarillo Hello and welcome to the JRE Review for the week of September 10th. A lot of podcasts going on. Joe is pumping these bad boys out. For those that are new to this podcast, basically what I do is pay my respects in homage to Joe Rogan and the Joe Rogan experience. By reviewing the podcast of the week, I do mostly all of them. I often have guests on. They're not super long, my podcast, but I just talk about things that I found interesting, things that were inspiring, things that really have opened my
Starting point is 00:01:11 eyes to something new. And then also, you know, how it has affected my guests that come on or just fans of Joe Rogan that are inspired by the message that he brings I mean I say it every time but you know, this isn't just like watching the lake show You know with Stephen Colbert is entertaining as that can be there's something more going on with Rogan's podcast It's really fascinating and it's opening up people's eyes and minds to I don't know a better future and more hope for them with great entertainment. So that's why I do it. I love listening to it.
Starting point is 00:01:49 I know a lot of you guys do and I'm going to continue to improve this show as much as I can in any way that I can just to make it worth while. But you know, like many people I've talked to, you listen to a podcast, you often have questions or comments and just things you want to add to it. And I think this is going to be the platform for a lot of those things. So anyway, without further ado, what I'm doing differently now is I'm going to have,
Starting point is 00:02:21 my episode is a little bit short and instead of cramming in 4 to 5 podcasts which I've been doing which is mostly just like a bullet point rush through and it gets a little ugly and kind of confusing even for me. I'm gonna focus just on each podcast and just do a little one and then focus on that podcast and start the dialogue there. So this podcast is for 1167 Larry Sharp. If you guys haven't listened to this one, it's a really interesting podcast because Joe usually doesn't get kind of, what can I say, not aggressive,
Starting point is 00:03:03 but he usually doesn't get as argumentative as he did in this one. He was really pushing Larry to make his points and Larry is a gentleman running for the government position in New York state. He's running as a libertarian or something. I don't know too much about what that means, but you will find listening to this podcast is plenty of shit that I don't know anything about, but I do my best. And it's like a third party. It's not Democrat, it's not Republican.
Starting point is 00:03:39 It has like aspects of both. And he comes in talking some logic. I guess Joe has been listening to him watching some videos of his online and was finding him pretty interesting and saying things like okay this guy this is this is cool how about I bring him on and find out a little bit about him but almost right off the bat, they got into it and honestly it didn't sound like Joe was buying a lot of it. The guy talks well and he talks really quickly like a lot of politicians. The first thing he discuss is he wants to cut funding for schools
Starting point is 00:04:20 in New York State. So his issue is people moving out of New York State. It's too expensive, it's not lending room for new businesses and there's just kind of a lot of corruption and bullshit going on in that city that really needs to change and the school system sucks. So they're all moving to like Connecticut or something or Delaware or I don't know, just different places. And he's trying to keep families there. So one of his plans is the cut funding for schools. Initially, and just like Joe brought up, you're like, wait, what the fuck? You're gonna cut funding and hope it gets better.
Starting point is 00:04:56 It sounds like a bad plan. But what Larry Sharp is saying is, he's saying right, by cutting funding, you're gonna get rid of a lot of the administrators. The administrators are just kind of getting in the way with paperwork and it's going to force teachers to innovate. The example that he gave was that in the Google company, they allowed their employees to spend 20% of their time working on whatever project they want as long as they're open and transparent about it, which is something Larry Sharp talked about. He would say,
Starting point is 00:05:28 you've got to be open and transparent, you know, with everything that you do, and he plans to be, which for a politician, I'm like, yeah, sounds like bullshit, but maybe, good luck to you. So, with the Google example, he's saying that people went off around different projects. Some of them worked, some of them didn't, not everyone did it, but they found some new, interesting ideas that they could implement within the company. And his idea in some way is you do the same thing with the school system, with the teachers. You give them some time to play. Instead of constantly having these standardized tests that you're having to take. These teachers are able to just kind of like try new things, see what works, pass that knowledge on, and it evolves organically instead of just being stuck
Starting point is 00:06:16 in this broken system. Joe really struggled to see his point with this. And it went on for some time and it's kind of a little frustrating. If you're fan of Joe Rogan, it's, yeah, I guess we have a bias to it because you kind of immediately on Joe's side and you're like, hmm, I mean, anytime he doesn't really see something, it just kind of, I don't know, it seems to make sense that that there is an issue that, right? I mean, he thinks things out really well and it was hard for me to see his point as well. I mean, I'm not anywhere as smart as Joe, but I struggle to see how you give something less money and it makes more sense.
Starting point is 00:07:01 I don't know. Throw that in the comments, email me, tell me what you think about it. But, you know, the struggle that Joe had is like, okay, so you give him less money. You're not really giving them any solutions. You're just kind of like cutting areas of their budget. And then somehow they're supposed to pull things together and make it work. They didn't seem to be a very defined plan there but Larry Sharp was sure that what he was doing made sense and that it would work. And that's it. His major issue is
Starting point is 00:07:34 remove standardites testing before high schools. He's saying that these tests don't really predict future success and the teachers should just come up with like helping kids expand their own creativity and really kind of figure out who they are. That I like, you know, but it's kind of woo-woo almost. I'm like, how do you even do that? How do you go about doing it? And if you're cutting budgets, how do you expect teachers to do that better than they already do with less pay? Who knows?
Starting point is 00:08:04 But he brings up some other points. So they expanded beyond the idea of schools and they moved on to areas of kind of an infrastructure, right? So he started talking about how companies could name bridges. They could sponsor bridges throughout New York and then they would not only pay for that bridge but they would also like pay the government to have their name on the bridge but they would also pay the maintenance of it alleviating you know all the maintenance costs and more importantly removing the tolls. I don't know if you guys are in New York or if many of you have been over there but getting around is ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:08:45 You have to pay so much money. Sometimes a toll, because they do it per axle, can be as high as $100 for a truck. A truck just to use a bridge. It's like, this is insane. I mean, that honestly is crazy. So the idea is you could call the bridge like Verizon Bridge or whatever, you know, 18T bridge, just like they do with stadiums and then when people talk about traffic in certain areas or whatever, these companies are getting a lot of time on the radio or whatever because
Starting point is 00:09:17 they're like, oh, traffic on the Verizon Bridge or this has happened on the Verizon Bridge or it's going well on the Verizon Bridge, take that one. So I see where the incentive is and I can see how that works and that would be a cool, kind of fun experiment to make, to see if it works for other cities to take it on. I mean, I like the idea of that, assuming that it does alleviate things like tolls and reduce taxpayer burden. But who knows, the government will probably just find another way to get your money anyway. So there's that. The next big thing he liked was legalizing marijuana. That in hemp just legalize it.
Starting point is 00:09:56 Make, treat it like onions, he said. I guess the farmers in New York are having a hell of a time. But you can grow onions. No regulations, no nothing, you can grow onions. And he talks a lot about regulations, getting rid of regulations. He wants to keep them for safety, you know, is it safer when there's a regulation of all great? But if it's just a regulation for regulations sake and it's the kind of thing that's going to stiple small businesses and allow big corrupt businesses to move in and take everything. He's not down for that and he wants to make some moves. Now he's never smugweed.
Starting point is 00:10:30 He's not a guy that does or does shrooms and that Joe was like, what the hell, I can't trust you. Even though he's kind of being funny, I mean, isn't it kind of true these days? Come on now. Can we take anyone seriously? Doesn't smoke marijuana? But, the idea that he's behind it, he believes in the health benefits and the pain reduction and all the rest of it He's saying that's definitely something that he wants to get into
Starting point is 00:10:54 and Overall, I'd say I really like the conversation. I mean I'm Skeptical what he could do, but he's saying all he needs to do is raise two million dollars and he's gonna win this That's gonna be enough advertising and enough time In front of the camera to get people to really see his message and they get it give it a shot and what was beautiful is the way that he ended It was great
Starting point is 00:11:20 because He may not be right, but he's started the conversation. And that was something big that he brought up. He goes, look, if I don't win, that's fine. I'll go back to doing whatever. He didn't, he seemed to genuinely just care about New York State and wanting it to be better so people want to live that.
Starting point is 00:11:39 And once he's done it, he's happy to go back to just the private sector or retirement or whatever he wants. You know, I like that. That gives me faith when I hear that from a politician. You know, I'm still yet to see one that actually follows through and doesn't just become useless and corrupt in his own way, but this is definitely a good way to start. And whoever's in right now, whoever the governor of New York is right now kind of wants to
Starting point is 00:12:04 run for President up against Trump in the next election. So his mind is kind of already focused somewhere else. I don't know. I like where it was at, and I like the Joe, brings these guys forward to have a dialogue. And Joe gets into it. He's not a kiss ass. You know, we all know this, but it was fantastic. So check it out.
Starting point is 00:12:26 Thank you for listening. Again, throw me some comments. I'm updating my the Gmail. So the Gmail right now is the JRE review. I didn't wait. Hold on. I'm being stupid. No, I changed this again. I gotta look this up. But yeah, shoot me an email. Let me know as soon as I figure out what it is. Let me know what you think. And it's the Joe Rogan Experience review at Gmail.com. And like I said, I'm always looking to improve this and bring better knowledge. I'm changing the format all the time. I'm only like 20 podcasts in, so give me some time and I'm going to get this whole in order. And thank you so much again.
Starting point is 00:13:12 Love you guys. Peace.
