Joe Rogan - I'd Like to Talk to Conor McGregor

Hold on, hold on, hold on. Isn't that so funny though? There's not a party that respected the Conor McGregor. He definitely pushed him harder. Yeah, for sure. Listen to him. What? There's not a party that respected the Conor McGregor in me. How dare you compare yourself to the greatest mixed martial arts fighters of all time. You know, guys talk to him. Who has the support of the entire nation of Ireland. You know Conor McGregor looks at me and you and connects with me. Over 50. 700. Whoever the fuck is in Ireland. Conor would love Burt. Conor would fucking. If you said Conor, you got one hour to party with one guy, hang out with one guy. He's picking me, bro. I told you shit. I told you shit. I might ask me advice. I would like to talk to him about his future. I have some thoughts. Yeah. I want him on your podcast so bad, man. I love that podcast. I don't know. We were supposed to do it a long time ago. I had his trainer on really recently. You know, I hope he doesn't think that in any way that I don't respect him or appreciate him. Because fighters are like super, super sensitive. Like I've gone through that a few times. Like I called Tony Ferguson, who's like one of my all time favorite, literally one of my all time favorite fighters. I said he was a brilliant weirdo because he wears like ankle weights the way he is. He got mad at you? He got mad at me. He got upset. And I had to talk to him and I like try to sort it out. I did it through someone else. And I was like, what? I see they all are the inside. No, no, no, no, no. It seems like that. It seems like that. But what it is is you're so exposed. It's what you're doing is so personal. It's so insane that you like what we can brush off. It's way harder for them. If you lose a fight and someone disrespects you or they in public sentiment keeps you from getting a title shot. That's a significant part of their life. They're not used to dealing with public reaction. They're used to dealing with this competition. So the public reaction thing of celebrity is an afterthought. It's something an after effective competition. You become successful. Then you have to deal with all these people around you who want you to dance. Well, Conor McGregor is a natural shit talker. Thank you. He's a great fighter, but he's also a natural shit talker. You want a buffalo bar? Yeah. Dude, that's what I love about Conor McGregor. So why have you had Conor McGregor and Bernie Sanders on? It's a weird situation that you haven't had either one of those people on. I tried to get Bernie recently. He said no. Some fake Bernie contacted us. Oh, you said you got your hat, right? Yeah, that was hat. They got me. And I said, I'm a big fan. I like a lot of your ideas. I'd love to have you on. And then it was a fake Bernie. Why would he not come out of here, though? I don't think he wants to run for president, man. Why would he still not come out here and show his ideas? I don't know, man. You know what I fucking love, by the way, about Conor McGregor? True. He made me re-appreciate the athlete who knows they're also an entertainer. Yeah. I actually... Thank you. You know, there's people that did that. I mean, everyone would probably give Ali credit for being... But here's the thing. Do you know why it works? I don't know why it works. Why does he know? Because that's who he is. That guy would be talking shit and sparring. Right. There's guys that are just funny like that, man. That doc on him is fantastic. Look at these smoking weed with Mike Tyson. By the way, Mike Tyson owns a goddamn weed farm. What is it called now? Is it really? Yeah. Make that smaller, please, so we can read what the hashtag is. Umm... It used to have... God damn. It used to say something about Tyson something or another. Did they edit it?
