Joe Rogan on NoFap

Relationship that the worker has now with the corporation and it's an unnatural relationship and it's a relationship that seems to have like dehumanized people to the point of being automatons that don't have a sex drive that don't deserve to be able to explore their consciousness and This is a a real Problem and what are you told me what you know? Are we studied the Talmud and did it for like 12 hours a day? When he was a young young man, he told me there was one passage Where in one of the ancient texts where it was talking about battling a dragon? And he said he's like this doesn't make sense because everything in here is supposed to be a story that actually happened Like what is this dragon? Oh the dragon is a metaphor for masturbation they tell him So the dragon that takes away young boys this is it is It is a metaphor for masturbation That's about this on the podcast. Yes, dude. It's it's you know, Ari knows about as much as anyone you're ever gonna meet about Orthodox Jewish traditions and the you know, oh, yeah religion and the the tax He really did study that shit every day 12 hours a day for years in Israel, right? Yeah. Yeah So when he tells you about it and you know, he got the trick. He got the actual Translation of the metaphor. Yeah from a guy who's a scholar. Yeah, dude. Yeah, that's a bad metaphor That's like I think like if I wanted for whatever reason to dissuade people from jerking off I could come up with a way better like thing than a dragon to represent it you know, there'd be some other thing like I don't know man like a What's like a? what would be like the creature version of a rolled up ball of Dried cum that you've thrown next to your bed and someone walks into your bedroom and sees the rolled up ball of dried Come Kleenex and it's just kind of like that's gross. You didn't clean up your come Kleenex It would be like one of them ghostbuster villains, right some sort of plasma thing that just jizzes all over you Yeah, you know, they'd get ghost buster. What do you think about the anti fat movement? Anti fat movement fat fap. Oh, no, no jerking off. Yeah No, fab not anti fab anti no, it's a different movement Well, there's good and bad the good thing is sex will be way more pleasurable The bad is it'll be way more desirable so like to mitigate Your sexual urges so you don't do stupid things and hang out stupid people and have sex with people you don't really like but you Think are hot because you're horny. Yeah, and they're willing which is a lot of people they get they get roped up in these Relationships. Yeah, these guys and gals that they're not really in love with. Yeah, but they like to fuck right, you know You know, it's like what do you think about it? well Like I think that they're you know what I what? Something I always think back on is when you were sponsored by fleshlight Mm-hmm, and this is when we were doing the podcast from your house and I mean you'd come to do your podcast and you'd walk away with a flashlight so I ended up with like I Don't know three or four Fleshlights and like at first I just wanted like you had different types and at first I just went for like Oh the one that looks like a pussy Right, but then like, you know, it's like oh I got that one, but then you had like one that was like I don't know man like some kind of like Garlic alien thing it was really no or something. It was really fucking weird man But anyway, you know, I fucked those things and I and and I when I think back to it, it's like the first time I did it it Tricked my brain. Yeah, the second time or the third time I did it. It wasn't getting the same effect Whereas when I have sex with a human it's a Completely different it feels like it's a completely different Series of chemicals that must be being released in my mind. Yeah, you're uniting with someone you're bonding with someone You certainly get that oxytocin from orgasming together. Yeah, it bonds people. So I've always thought Generally like if I'm in a period in my life where I'm jerking off a lot It's like usually like there's something imbalanced in there. Like I don't mean to apply like a sin to it at all I'm just saying like personally, yeah, it feels a little Dissipative when you're doing it a lot there. I don't know. I completely agree But that's the balance but the balance is also like you don't want to just be horny all the time No, because when you're horny you make shitty decisions. So you like yeah, you'll date someone just for sex Yeah, well you need to like I mean, I think that there is something to be said for figuring out how to Deal with like that kind of energy Like if you so you that's an that's an energetic state like you if suddenly you get being horny is an energetic state Yeah, it's energy like if you're really horny and you sit and like watch the the feeling itself It's electrical like you can feel it moving around in your body It like it can almost make you twitchy a little bit like it's like a very potent energetic state. So Theoretically instead of trying to get the question would be rather. Is there a way to release that energy? That isn't through the tip of my dick in the form of DNA Is there a way for me to release that energy in other ways or is the only? Way the only valve on that to come that's a question. What do you think? I think there's when this natural buildup happens, it makes people more Easily aroused it makes people more concentrating on sex and I think that it that can put you out of balance, too You can be put out of balance both by too much masturbation You can definitely be put out of balance by too much desire for sex Yeah, cuz you're just horny sure you just take care of it yourself and you'd be relieved and then you could think clear You know, I think the body needs a balance right? That's why I'm a big proponent of exercise
