The Joe Rogan Experience

Without making light or trying to be disrespectful, like, if the things that I tried to figure out, like a game, like a video game, was sex, money, power, right?

Like, as an artist, I had subscribed to the starving artist, like, type, right?

It was, like, Top Ramen, you know, holes in your clothes, like, homeless, like, I was like, that is what a real artist is.

Until I met a successful artist, until I was like, oh, shit, like, you can have a manager and an agent and an office and, like, you can, like, not starve.

And I remember at that point, I was in my early 20s, I was like, man, people sure, like, talk about money a lot, right?

Like, it seems to be, like, this thing that causes a lot of problems in marriages and business.

And I go, it doesn't seem that hard to me.
