Joe Rogan - Florida is a Strange Place

Yeah, and I think that, you know, so like shoulder to shoulder person to person, I feel like a bit of a disconnect, you know, but social media, like we get to share information, sometimes not good information, sometimes good information, like the fact that people are communicating, I think is important. It's making people take stands on things that they're all finding out, oh, you believe that too, or I think that too, like cool, like I can find my people, you know, but on the actual like oxytocin, like social side, people actually getting to know each other, like those like intimate relationships, like I feel like that part is suffering a little bit from it. Yeah, I think that suffering a little bit in real life, because people are in cars, they're in traffic, they're isolated, then they go to work and they're in a cubicle all day and they get home and they're in their apartment or their house. Yeah, there's not a lot of like interaction with people. And I just think this is just a side effect of modern life, you know, it's weird that there's so many, like in LA, there's so many people next to each other and almost nobody knows their neighbor. It's very strange. What I'm talking about is I think countries are stupid, like states, I think countries are like states, like I think we should build a wall over Florida before we should build a wall over Mexico. I mean, Florida is a state, right? But Florida is just as alien as like, say, Finland or something like that. I mean, it's just just the fact that you can move out of Florida and like, fuck Florida, man, I'm going to I'm going to move to Atlanta and you go up there and like nobody stops you. You just go. But if you're in Tijuana, like you're like, no, dog, there's a fence up here, bitch. Like there's no there's no crossing. To me, that seems like super fucking strange and almost like guaranteeing that those spots are fucked forever. And the only way those anything's ever going to level out is if you let anybody travel wherever they want and nobody's willing to do that because it might fuck up the good spots like La Jolla would be like, no, no, no, no, you can't just like we're not equal. Yeah, we're not equal. You can't just come over from I mean, you think about it. La Jolla has some of the wealthiest real estate in the world. Right. And unbelievable, beautiful views. And you could walk to Mexico from La Jolla. You could walk. I mean, what's the distance between Tijuana and La Jolla? Let's guess. Let me guess. I'm gonna say it's 50 miles. Is it 50? I'm gonna say 50. No, it's not that many because it's 30 depending on. Oh, yeah, I would say it's a 30 minute drive like like moderate normal speed limit. Yeah, no traffic. Yeah, maybe. So maybe it's 30 miles. So it's like a marathon, like a marathon run, which people do. They run it all. They run marathons all the time. 20? 32 miles. So you're in fucking Tijuana. You're in a third world country in one of the worst neighborhoods of a third world country. And 32 miles away, you have like these unbelievable mansions on these bluffs overlooking the ocean. Like, look at that shit. It's crazy. That's crazy. Even Coronado. It's very weird. Yeah, exactly. It's very weird. Yeah. And yeah, that Coronado, the island, that's all super wealthy people, right? Yeah. That's where Dick Cheney lives, apparently. Yeah, they have the ability of shutting that whole island down if there's like vandalism or like, because it's got its entry and it's out. Like what is it called? So it's not exactly an island. Like it does attach to the land. What is that called? The peninsula? Yeah. Yeah. They have an ability at both the peninsula edge and the bridge to shut it down as a community if shit's going down on the island and they don't want someone to get off. Wow. Yeah. That's how rich they are. Yeah. It's only one of the wealthiest places in the world. And another one, there's one offside off of Miami. There's like some little tiny island that's filled only with rich people. Star island, I think. Is that what it's called? Yeah. It's like one of the most wealthy places on the planet. There's one little spot off Miami just filled with rich folks waiting for a hurricane to fuck up their lives. Is that it? Star Island is a tiny neighborhood of massive houses and drama. Oh, there's drama. Oh, see the big X on it? Like fuck this place. Okay. Kind of drama. Damn, bad ass houses though. But they have good brunch too. Yeah. That's their little tips. So they have a little bridge and it's a little tiny island. All right. Good luck. People are weird. Wow. People are weird, Kat. Doesn't feel safe. Not in Miami. A pirate. A pirate. Come wipe that whole thing out. Crocodiles. That place is filled with pirates. That place is filled with weird shit. It's just Florida is so strong. I love it. I'm joking around that I hate it, but I love Miami. It's so strange. Every time I go down there, I'm like, you should have to have a passport to come here. This is not America. I don't give a fuck what anybody says. It's great, but it's chaos. But then there's some Florida spots like we like, okay, Pensacola, you can just go fuck yourself. What'd you say? It's basically Alabama. It might as well be. It might as well be. Other than Roy Jones Jr. I mean, he came out of there. He put Pensacola on the map.
