Joe Rogan on Getting Botox to Look Younger

Man, I mean, it just seems like there's so many promising things it would be really fascinating if you could document that you could take one person. It was like a wealthy man in his mid to late 60s. Yeah. Well, there's this fringe element in anti-aging. In fact, I don't even like the term anti-aging. What do you like? Longevity research. We're about to announce, maybe this is a sneak preview for everybody, an academy for aging research of the top, I think, 20 scientists in the world are banding together to produce white papers and opinions. But yeah, we call it longevity research. So anti-aging is more the Botox and that kind of stuff that we don't want anything to do with. Right, but that's nonsense. It's not really anti-aging. You're not doing anything about aging. You're just freezing your skin so it doesn't move. That to me is one of the weirder things, especially with men. When I see a man and his forehead doesn't move, I want to smack him in the mouth. Like, what's wrong with you, sir? How dare you? Smack. It's just, it's not, it's not like Botox or fillers or any of those things. You're not doing anything for your health or your actual real vitality. You're just weirdly doing something cosmetic. Right? Yes, you are. I think their defense is you feel better if you look better. And psychologically it might help. I don't think they look better though. They just look different. Yeah. That's the problem. It is true. Yeah, I don't spend a lot of time thinking about the cosmetic industry for obvious reasons. I'm trying to save humanity and improve the planet. Actually, I do think we would be judged as a species if an alien came down and they said... You're shooting botulism in your face? Right, right. Exactly. You are a weird, you're not allowed in the club of advanced species. Well, that would only be one thing that we are weird from. Yeah. But what would they ask you? Well, they'd ask us, have you figured out the speed of light? They'd ask me why I have drawings all over my arm. No, they might appreciate art. Maybe. But like, they'd be like, why don't you just get it and then just wash it off or something? Why don't you have to get it drilled in your skin, stupid? Well, that's coming. I think one of the most important questions they'd ask to tell if we were an advanced nation or advanced species is, have you figured out aging yet? Right. Right. Deterioration. Yeah. And you know what? We're so pathetic as a species, our answer would be, you mean that's a thing? You can do something about that? And they're like, come back in a thousand years.
