Joe Rogan on Ricky Gervais' Golden Globes Monologue

Blick. The idea that a guy actually had a fuck island. I mean it's... That's what Ricky Gervais was joking about last night. Oh of course he was. No but I did see the one clip that somebody put on the internet about him saying, Don't virtue signal, just come out here and get your little prize and go fuck off because nobody cares about your opinion. I was like, thank you. Thank you Ricky. Thank you. Thank God. That guy swings. He's out there swinging from the hip. Chin up. Doesn't give a fuck. Telling it like it is. I love it. He went after Apple in front of Tim Cook. Dude, how crazy was that shit? He went after Apple, then he said if ISIS opened up a studio you'll be sending your resumes. Is that what he said? Something on your vlog? Yeah, you'd all be like, yeah streaming service you'll be contacting your agents or something. Yeah, that's what he said. Like fuck man. Good for him. So those were all pre-written right? Because they had to have those cuts ready to go. I don't know man. He's so badass. He might be able to do whatever the fuck he wants. You know, he's Ricky Gervais. He's got the ability to probably say, oh I'll do it. I'll do it this way. And only this way. And they're like, okay Ricky we love you. We love you. We know you wouldn't do anything. The Jeopardyres are an amazing organization. We all love working with you here at the Golden Gloves. And it's fun. I mean you stir people up and everybody knows you're a good guy. And then he goes and hits them with genocide talking. Like hey hey hey. Apple must have been so pissed. We were just getting away with using all that slave labor and nobody even noticed. That's, I mean it's another thing like this murder, right? It's like that's just how everything was done. That's just how everything was done. That's how they whacked everybody. And that was how you got things built cheap. They used slave labor. But nobody knew. Nobody really understood until you saw things like Foxconn. You were like, wait a minute. This is a good setup? You guys are working 16 hours a day. You sleep in the building. This is a good place. This is good. The stories of Amazon workers like running around and peeing themselves. Oh yeah. Yeah they have some crazy countdown thing that goes when they get an order and they have to run to go get it. Probably a fun job if you're into losing weight. Put on some ankle weights and shit. Maybe a weight vest and just run around that thing. You'd get a fucking vicious workout. That's making lemonades out of lemons. That's right Joe. Everything's a workout. You could be working as a waiter at Applebee's and that's a workout. That's right. Think about it man. Just with heavy weights around your waist that no one would notice. You could have a good workout while you're working. The Apple thing, that had this thing. He was standing right there. They showed him right before he started saying it. What exactly did he say? Something about using sweatshops and stuff like that right in front of him. Foxconn is a sweatshop but it's probably the best version of a sweatshop. It's a real company. Best version of a sweatshop is hilarious. Foxconn works in the United States now. Do they? They're about to have companies here in the United States. I remember this is something that Trump had talked about. On top of the annual, Gervais ended his monologue by telling the nominees, so if you do win an award tonight, don't use it as a political platform to make a political speech. You're in no position to lecture the public about anything. You know nothing about the real world. Most of you spent less time in school than Greta Thurnberg. So if you win, come up, accept your little award, thank your agent and your God and fuck off. Okay? Oh, the swear was beeped out by NBC. He was also beeped for his use of profanity in two other jokes. One where he called cats James Corden a fat pussy, and another where he discussed the same films Judy Dench licking her ass. Wow. The comedian, however, also peppered the monologue with references to Me Too and contemporary issues. He started off by noting it was his fifth time hosting, and therefore he didn't care what flack he would take. Then he punched in with a nod to last year's college admission scandal, I came here in a limo tonight and the license plate was made by Felicity Huffman. He said, good for him. He doesn't have the Apple quote. He's a real comic. He's a real comic. Look, they're right down. Yeah, down a little. It said a little lower than that. Apple TV. Yeah. While discussing the addition of Apple TV plus to the room, Gervais noted the irony of a Me Too themed show like The Morning Show being made by a company who runs sweat shops in China. You say you're woke, but if ISIS started a streaming service, you'd call your agent. We're going to get this right, folks. I really believe this. This is what we were talking about earlier about everything being bad. I don't think it is. I think it's just a lot of noise. There's a lot of noise. A lot of people yelling. It's swinging back around already. It's swinging back around. We're human. Yeah. You know, we have weird things. Everything's changed. It's all changed now. Everything's changed. Okay. Relax. We're okay. We're going to be all right. The world's fucked. We're fucked. It's all ending. Yeah.
