Before this podcast airs, I just want to say thank you to the fine folks at SyFy and Arthur Smith, the production company that made my show, Joe Rogan Questions Everything.
Thank you to Tim and Wayne from SyFy also for allowing us to put this on the air as a podcast.
One of the things that we did when we were filming the show is we wanted to incorporate the podcast into the show because, first of all, it's the best method that I know of for discussing an issue.
One of the things that I found about the show that was kind of awkward, I really enjoyed doing the show.
I really enjoyed the opportunity to explore all these different topics.
It didn't come out perfect.
There's a lot of things that I wasn't happy with, but that's all just a part of the growing pains of creating a show.
But one thing that I did find is that having conversations in front of people standing up in weird circumstances like in a hallway or in a laboratory or whatever, many different scenarios that we had conversations on the show is very awkward.
The best way to have a conversation is on a podcast, sitting down across each other in a comfortable chair in front of a big oak desk where you're relaxed.
You feel confident.
You're comfortable, rather.
You feel comfortable.
You feel it's quiet.
The room is, you know, it's a fun place to be.
It feels good.
There's good energy here.
And we control that for the most part by having it in a podcast form.
And my favorite aspects of the show were actually Duncan and myself talking to these people on the podcast.
And it was kind of a revelation in a lot of ways.
It's like my favorite part of doing this show is the stuff that I was already doing before I was doing this show.
