- Alex Honnold is a big wall free solo climber. A documentary feature film titled "Free Solo" captures his record setting ascent of El Capitan, and it can be seen now in movie theaters all over.
www.honnoldfoundation.org/
his voice is pure bass. caused by the size of his nuts.
Wtf 🤣
Lol
Lol 🤣
Surprised they don’t get in the way when he climbs
For real! I thought it was just me but in the doc after he reaches the top and sitting in his fan. His member is impossible to not notice😂😂
Joe: "My product increases brain function"
Alex: "How?"
Joe: "I can't remember"
Mark Robinson 😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
this is gold
LMAO
lol
Alex Honnold is the most ultra chill total lunatic of all time.
he is, just not around a lot of strangers
He’s slightly autistic like a savant from what I heard in the movie .. probably the reason he is so damn good.
Lmao he is not autistic, its called aspbergers. His dad had it and so does he.
Yeah he’s so chilled it’s scary
Travis pastrana, tony hawk, Dave mirra rip, are pretty chill...it's almost like when you defeat the odds in extreme sports, you have a calmer seminar because they see death as an option every day, and they accept just like an other event that will happen.
Legend has it, Joe is still lecturing elite level athletes about nutrition
D davis I’m weak😂
Rohan himself is an elite One . His longevity is what matters . Pro sports people doing nessecarly know more , they too busy performing . Joe does know enough to have a discussion with pros
Idk how I feel about this comment, which is why I appreciate it
His beta blocker comment was sent packing
He's so embarrassing
Honnold: free solos El Cap
Rogan: I’m doing sober October
And? What's your point?
Crebs Park 🥴
I agree..how pointless..I guarantee joe would wear u ass out..He smoke weed and drink along woth being fit..What the issue?..
@@claytondavidson1938 The point was to laugh because he was making a joke. You should try it out sometime.
clayton davidson point is he’s a pussy.
Free Solo brought me here. Alex Honnold is the most badass man alive in my book. Balls of absolute steel.
Christina Reynolds Jesus why do you hate him so much? I saw you on a different Alex Honold video
Christina Reynolds also who cares if his amygdala isn’t normal? You realize he accomplished something amazing right?
@@gamermusk4588 Remove fear, and you'd be surprised what most folks can accomplish. For example - Place a 2x4 on the ground, and walk across it... Then, take the 2x4 and walk across it, while it's 500' in the air. You're going to fall.
@@jlydon29 The point is you can't just remove fear in most people. What he does is insane.
FACTS
Guest: so let me tell you about basket weaving in Eastern Europe during the 11th century
Joe: that’s exactly like Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Joe: “How many people have free climbed it [El Cap]?”
Alex: “just me, ...that’s why they made the movie...”
Ricardo Viatruso ahah he should have said yeah it’s kind of a big deal
Free climb and free solo are different.
Free climbing is using protection but not pulling on it
No implication that free climbing is unheard of lol
@@xfluto4806 haha right? 😆
Joe: Let me try to impress you with all my knowledge on nutrition supplements and cross training techniques.
Alex: Yeah, I just eat vegetables and do some pushups.
I think all Joe's stuff probably makes like 1% or less difference... And man this Alex guy is likeable and humble as hell. I saw somewhere he donates 1/3 of his salary to different enviro funds.
Nicholas Strezynski Yeah, really humble. I’ve also seen that too. He started his own non-profit, focusing on giving electricity to those who don’t have any as well as keeping as minimal of an impact on the environment as possible.
Gotta say, I've been on Alpha brain for about a week now and I do feel a difference in my cognition. I'm a jazz musician so I'm always trying to create spontaneously....I'd recommend trying Alpha Brain to anyone interested to see if it works for you.
IHave you ever tried..... Alex: I don’t even know what that is
BC Drummer I tried it had the sudden urge to eat raw meat & piss on fire hydrants....
Alex has beautifully embraced the fact that not a single person around understands what he is. A good lesson for all of us weirdos.
What are you really talking about? I always thought that niche champions have the best of both worlds. They get praise and acclaim for what they've accomplished, but they can still have a normal life without being recognized on the street everyday.
Like think of Magnus Carlsen. Few people outside of chess know who he is. He can even book a hotel room at a huge convention and the staff will have no clue that he is the best in the world
@Christina Reynolds just no, whatever you say he is he isn't :)
@Christina Reynolds how many times are you gonna make the same statement?
Christian Reynolds, that’s not how this works. If he had no fear, he’d have died a long time ago. He has faced and mastered the fear. Fear is what has kept him alive.
@@sadbravesfan lol forreal dude's all in the comments
Whenever Joe has a vegetarian on, he turns into a mother concerned with his child’s diet.
The same guy went on an all meat diet for a month or something
Lol, and tried to lure him in with " what if somebody hunted it for you"
I'm that bull rider! From the Fear Factor episode back in 2002. I can believe Joe still remembers me. That episode was my fifteen minutes of fame. Joe's my hero.
Amazing brother
💗💗💗💗☀️
Is he right? Did bull riding fuck your shoulder up?
There's no way lol let's see a video of that shoulder brother
I don’t believe you
Joe: 'is there a point, where you're 1,000ft up and you're in nature and shit, and you see a mountain lion fighting a bear? Jamie pull that up, shit's crazy. Have you done DMT?'
Joe Lancaster this might be the greatest comment I’ve ever seen.
Wth Joe lololol,thats great =-ľ
LOL
fucking hahahahahaha LOL-ing so hard, fucking great comment; the best.
hahahahahaha superb
“That’s interesting, but have you ever tried free-soloing on DMT?”
Jared the best comment, I’m dying lol
Most Underrated comment:
Jared “I actually have”
Lmao
DMT lasts 10 minutes. Mushrooms would be better.
“The thing is, anybody can be happy and cosy. Nothing good happens in the world by being happy and cosy. Nobody achieves anything great because they’re happy and cosy.”
It's what makes you happy. It's not all about achievements. That's why depression is rampant. You're brainwashed if you think you need to achieve great to be happy. You do what makes you happy. That's all. You can't just force someone like "hey achieve something great, you'll be happy". What? Some people experience extreme happiness just by watching netflix. If everyone's happy, all good things will happen. Zero conflict. That's why there's war, cause some shit just can't be happy and cosy. Entitled tards.
@@PX02 i disagree
Progress happens when you’re out of your comfort zone.
FX indulgence leads to nothing good yes obviously any untrained mind would feel good watching Netflix dumbass but would you prefer a short burst or dopamine and long term pain or suffering in the short term and achieving to have a fulfilling life.
@@lemarz8006 you can have a fulfilling life by just watching netflix dumbass
"I'm the only one. I mean, that's why there's the film and everything." LOL!

"So a typical breezy morning for me"
if you ever have any problems in life just remember Alex honnold had the boulder problem
And a little panic attack mid climb, still made it. I walk on ground and get worried sometimes.
@@maxmustermann7794 I just don't know how he has the courage to keep on going, I would get 10 feet up and turn around 😂
@@wiktorwauzchonski6332 Hahaha same! I'm a tall person and afraid of heights. Friends keep making fun of that every time it comes up.
Best comment ever!!! And yes Alex did have the boulder problem and how did he handle it???? Karate🥋 kicked the shit out of it. Hope you understand my comment. But no really good and witty comment 😂 classic
If you ever have any problems in life just remember Tommy Caldwell fell 100ft and still broke the speed climb record on El Cap.
“I’m not fundamentally opposed to eating insects it’s just... they’re rarely served” i love you Alex Honnold 😂
Agree! That was a great line!
"Barnacles are crunchy"
Alex Honnold trained for the mental brutality of this interview by climbing El Cap in under 4 hrs without ropes.
I Love You I love you to
😂🤣👏👏
Oh my god 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
And he conquered it just as effortlessly
Ya t
Alex is the epitome of fitness and focus. He did this whole interview on one breath.
“This one Czech guy” hahaha. Shoutout Adam Ondra
@Stellvia Hoenheim ??? How? do you even know who he is lmao
what is the timestamp? Thanks!
TheObuolmusis 37:20 my friend
@@thorhyde thanks
@Stellvia Hoenheim elaborate
His humbleness is rare.His focus and calm even rarer.Very little ego.Hope he stays that way and doesn't get carried away.
You can't have a big ego and be a successful free solo climber. You have to leave your ego on the ground, lest it get you killed. When you spend enough time free soloing, you realize you just don't need it.
It's this sort of demeanour that all sports athletes should aspire to be like.
“Humbleness” is not a word. It’s called humility.
Pride while free soloing will get you killed.
He definitely has an ego
Love joe and about 90% of his interviews i love but the amount of disrespect and lack of research he done before interviewing Alex is insulting like he didnt even watch the documentary
I agree! I was shocked that he had no idea who Tommy Caldwell was. I kind of sensed Alex was annoyed by it too.
He also thought Rob Zombie played guitar, that means he never saw one single performance or video of the man
@Tsjung Fu Yeah its the weed not the fact that hes an out of touch millionaire narcissist...
@@adriaticc.7552 that's pretty fucked up. i don't think its that hard to go up to wikipedia and read a summary on that.
@@DontTakeCrack I agree! All it takes as a little initiative
2/3rds of the way through Joe's like "So how many people have free soloed El Cap?"
Yikes. Does he even know who he's interviewing?
This was sooooo awkward. If Alex wasn't such a nice guy, he could totally roast Joe for it.
There are dozens of routes to climb up El Cap. I can see how he might have been confused or just trying to clarify.
@@soundsofnature7015 I dont think its acceptable James. Afterall, this is THE main achievement of Alex's career.
James Allen just one way to free solo it though. Straight up the face of death. Sure you can hike it , the other way around like his camera team did but I guarantee you, eons will pass before anyone even has the balls to free solo el cap again.
wizaard has always
I'm not exactly sure that Joe realized how utterly astonishing the El Cap climb really was. It's probably the greatest athletic feat (and maybe mental) in the history of humankind. It's certainly top five. Alex is a complete outlier, a singular talent. Oh, and I too would listen to a Honnold Podcast, but I just don't think Alex would be into it. He has improved his public speaking immensely, but I just don't think he is particularly interested in pursuing that road.
Elmo Blatch I love your summation of the lack of understanding Joe Rogan has regarding the person and accomplishments of Alex Honnold. And I do like Joe Rogan. I do hope Alex Honnold pursues public speaking. I would I listen to whatever he had to say. He is so authentic and completely without guile. Pure honesty.
It isn't even close to the greatest mental feat. I agree with the athletic bit though.
@@@kvltizt What would you say is the greatest singular mental feat? (since this isn't even close)
@Elmo Blatch I'm not exactly sure that ANYONE including the uber-elite mountainers and soloist's realizes how utterly astonishing the El Cap climb and all of his other big wall solo's truly are. Alex does routes that the greatest climbers blanch at just thinking about.
@@LukeHeironimus Gee, I don't know. Landing men on the moon? Inventing calculus? Inventing the computer? Curing polio? Etc. Etc. Etc.
"Do you eat eggs?"
"Yeah"
"Ok good"
laughed so hard at this
they're the highest quality form of protein - rogan was hoping in his 'don't eat meat anymore' rhetoric that Alex wasn't going to become malnourished in 2 - 5 years and could continue as an excellent climber.
Samson Blackburn Vegetables have more protein look it up thun
Samson Blackburn eggs are not the highest form of protein content. Foods like chia seeds, hemp seeds, or spirulina have the most per gram.
@@Runaflex they do not contain all EAA's required for adequate muscle retention.
Most vegetables also do not contain all EAA's. EAA's are required in addition to BCAA's therefore vegetables and seeds are not enough.
He mentioned his buddy Brad Gobright as the only other elite Solo Climber, I searched him up and he died last year climbing. Damn. Crazy. RIP
Damn.
Whats really sad is he soloe'd up the mountain but died ascending with a rope smh .
@@jodymccoy5589 tie your stopper knots.
@@jodymccoy5589 he died rappelling down. He rap'd off the end of his rope.
Damn!!!
43:07 that cut away to joe killed me
The small muscles around your eyes squint in response to perceived threat. Alex's eyes look like an anime character because he is incapable of feeling fear.
He DOES look anime, Japan would love him
Expect when public speaking..
@@whalen25 well he was conceived in Japan (his parents were living there at the time) so it only makes sense.
He has Aspergers
@@freethinker9406 no he doesn't. His dad did.
Alex Honnold is not just a pathbreaking climber, but also comes off as a very smart, well-read, humble person. Great interview!
climbed el cap free solo and talks about it as if he woke up and brushed his teeth... this man is a rare breed physically mentally and non egotistical..you know if anyone else accomplished a task even half of this would boast and brag until the day they died
Well when your job is adrenaline filled youd be pretty mellow all the time. People who work out for a living are usually laid back
It would be pathbreaking if anyone was going to follow him. He is a once in a generation marvel.
qp ghost qp What the fuck are you talking about? People who work out for a living are mostly meat heads and assholes with huge egos. Christian Bale once said that he hates working out and that he thinks it kills brain cells. Which might be true
Manic Rhymes yeah cause Christian bale knows everything? The fuck lmao
It’s remarkable how well Rogan keeps the conversation moving forward. His ability to contribute and modify the conversation is underrated.
That’s why his podcast is so popular
I find it really interesting juxtaposing your comment with some of the others. Maybe this is just a result of youtube algorithms sorting comments, but there seem to be many people thinking the opposite.
Andrew Andrus ~ see, while I agree he interrupts I also believe he can keep the conversation going. It’s the latter that fuels the former ~ maybe the other way around ~ who knows. So, it does get frustrating at times, like when he has important guests who are making a solid point and he cuts them off. However, sometimes you get guests that drop one word sentences and he pulls them along.
Joe's pretty good at keeping a conversation going. It's his lack of knowledge on basic scientific and historic facts, his lack of specific research on his interviewees, and his willingness to launder bad ideas without really challenging them that are infuriating. His wide eyed wonder plays well regarding a technical endeavor he knows nothing about like climbing, but not so much when it comes to the stupid conspiracy theories and right wing nonsense he offers little counter to, if not outright agreeing with it.
VigEuth I don’t have a problem with that at all.
In fact, I feel like Joe at times because some of those things seem plausible. Of course, I don’t know what you’re speaking of but I’m guessing shit like Alex Jones.
Joe "my palms are sweating, feel that" rogan

It's so funny that Alex who has actually accomplished a magnificant feet of athletisism does not care and know about all the muscle/cognitive enhancement shit Joe talks about.... this says a lot about hypes and that we really don't need so much to acheive greatness.
good point forsure👍
I'd suggest you check out Zach Miller, a ultra runner (100 mile races on foot) for nike! He's super chill and even more about nutrition and stuff (just eating oreos and drinking coke after running 80 miles :D) He did a podcast with ethan newberry, it's awesome!
I love how humble Alex is, mans a living legend and constantly saying everyone else is doing harder stuff
Joe Rogan the type of guy to lecture the guy who did the greatest sports achievement ever about nutrition.
Nothing obscure about it.
Rogan's a total egotist narc
hes more speaking for his viewers who might have no prior understanding. its dumbed down for sure for the viewers.
It's a conversation not a lecture. People talk about redundant things all the time. They are just people not gods with zero words or time wasted.
wait...was Eddie Hall on this podcast?
Alex is the most chill guy I have seen. Completely confident and calm. The most comfortable in his own skin, dude.
Ronnie Ronnie it’s all that time spent out in nature
Christina Reynolds please explain to me how Alex is a psycho and why so much hate on him? You’re the first person I’ve read that disagrees
Because you don’t even know the guy in person. You judge him off some clique quotes you hear from tv. Why do you post over 5 comments talking shit about him? Why don’t you like him?
@Christina Reynolds There are many things that contribute to a person's behavior. It's a complex combination beyond the understanding of some SJW Cat Lady.
@Christina Reynolds this is literally so annoying to keep seeing. Yes, an amygdala that doesnt fire off the same way is ONE TRAIT of a psychopath but theres a LOT more factors. So I dont know why you're pointing out something that doesnt even matter in regards to Alex other than the fact that hes learned to channel it in a constructive way.

I free climbed my ladder all the way up to my roof yesterday. There was a moment of doubt when a tree limb jutting out over the ladder hit me in the face but I conquered it and cleaned my gutters.
LMFAO
When is the movie coming out..?
free climbing would actually mean you had a rope, so if i saw a guy with rope and harness cleaning gutters id think it was actually pretty hardcore
Well done!!
I bet your moves were precise and accurate.
Alex *Climbs mountain barehanded with no ropes*
Joe"Especially with boxing, because the consequences are so grave"
Alex"YEA"
I mean boxing your pretty much guaranteed to have some sort of head trauma if your in it for a long time which is going to fuck with you mentally whereas if your an incredibly experienced climber and you start free soloing on shit you constantly practice on and that you can consistently do cleanly the risk for injury is probably far lower
Kegan Gowen No he’s right. The chance for injuries is guaranteed in fighting but when you do get injured in climbing its death
@Kegan Gowen Why are you even arguing him there bud? Alex fucking agreed with the sentiment in the podcast.
In the film Alex talks about risk vs consequence. For experienced climbers risk is relatively low (still high when compared to most everyday activity) but the consequence is almost always death. In boxing, the risk is extremely high and the consequence is brain damage. they are both very very very reckless and require balls. I would still rather box than free solo but the danger isn't incomparable.
Deserting Dessert It doesn’t matter you don’t risk your LIFE in boxing as much as a guy like Alex.
*Joe pushes his supplements*
Alex: What’s peak alpha flow state?
Joe: Errrrr you’ll have to check the website.
If this guy grabs you. There's no way you'll get free.
Debatable.
I highly suggest going to see Free Solo. Mind blowing documentary.
Sorry but I'm not going to the theaters and paying to watch a documentary but Im planning on watching it for sure
Yup. That was a mind blowing thing to see in the Imax cinesphere.
Amazing
acoe Corey R If you have the chance to see it in IMAX, you should. I’ve seen it three times - IMAX, regular theater, and now I own it on digital video (so I’ll probably watch it more). I was sweating every time, but I appreciated the sheer scale and beauty of the film and the feat more in IMAX.
I just acquired it over the weekend and it's pretty fucking good.
Thumbs up if you want Alex Honnold to make a podcast!
1:33:50 We have to let him know people are interested.
i would def subscribe to that
Joe offered to help but Alex “doesn’t even know if he would get into that.” If Peyton Manning offers to teach me to throw a spiral I say yes and thank you. Alex is a dick.
Adam Majkowski I honestly think that Alex has never thought about having a podcast. However after Joe brought up the idea, he seemed interested in sharing his thoughts. It would be cool if he did.
@@adammajkowski4473 is a dick ;p
I thought of this before he said it
“Imagine the grip strength on THAT guy” as he’s literally looking at one of the best and strongest climbers in the world.
Unfortunately Alex is nowhere near one of the strongest climbers physically, a case could be made that he’s one of the strongest mentally. Tommy Caldwell and Adam Ondra are two of the strongest climbers in the world right now.
Jason Merth nowhere near? lmao lets see how strong their grips are whilst freeclimbing el cap or anything remotely close to that. you realize how strong his grip is , especially since he knows he has to mainly rely on that to not fall to his death. If you know youre safe and have your ropes to catch you, i doubt youd still be gripping as tight as this guy
@@vanivermo Adam Ondra has successfully sent the climb "silence" which has now been considered the most difficult as well as the most physically demanding climb in the world. and Tommy Caldwell climbed the dawn wall on el cap (a climb that only Tommy caldwell his partner and Adam Ondra have successfully climbed) I'm not discounting Alex's amazing achievement, but, even he doesn't consider himself to be one of the strongest climbers... ill see if I can find the interview where he said that. and climbing with or without rope does not affect your grip strength, I have no doubt in my mind that Tommy Caldwell or Adam Ondra would have any trouble with the physical side of free soloing el cap, the mental side possibly only Ondra (even though I doubt he'd ever do it as he is currently the best climber in the world to date) I suggest googling "who is the strongest climber in the world" Ondra will pop up every time.
@@vanivermo i don't think you know what you're talking about.. Alex himself says in this video Ondra is way stronger. Honnold is obviously quite strong, but there are many climbers at the same level. There's just noone that dares to free solo at that level. That's his gift. He climbs for perfection. Ondra and guys like Megos etc train and climb for pure difficulty.
@@vanivermo He's right though. Alex Honnold is nowhere near one of the strongest climbers in the world. There are probably hundreds of climbers who are stronger than him.
The way he talks is so interesting; very literal and with little affect.
I know...seems like he has such a clear head...doesn’t embellish anything...I love it
I wonder if his affect has to do with the fact that his amygdala literally has a higher baseline then normal people (vis a vis fear, stress and shit... they studied it when they hooked his brain to electrodes and did all sorts of stuff)... and I wonder if that conversely means that regular mundane stuff which feels mundane to us folk is ULTRA MUNDANE to Alex to the point that he is sorta sleep walking through this interview and operating in this zero-state of arousal
Just know that you will never in your lifetime ever interview another athlete that will accomplish what this guy did. You just spoke to a dude that literally is 1 in about 10 billion.
And still not all that special - he climbs up rocks. This is not a cure for cancer .. .he climbs up rocks.

"I don't eat animals, because of environmental reasons".. In Joe's head - "Dumb cunt."
That´s a real shame. He can sell his crap somewhere else.
As someone who lives next to a main road (highway), Imagining a world with silent engines as cars pass by almost brought a tear to my eye.

Funny stuff
I would listen to a Honnold podcast
Sawyer K he should have his own podcast this dude is super interesting.
Podcast "from the rockface"
I liked his idea of doing shorter things, like maybe 15 minute or less videos. I'm not sure he has the skill of talking for long periods of time on his own to an audience, or interviewing a guest, but if he released short videos on youtube, about whatever, people would probably be enthused to watch and hear it. But like he said, he will only do it if he feels the motivation to do it, or that it's his path. Joe Rogan telling him he should do a podcast isn't going to motivate him, he would need to feel it on his own, know he wants to do it, and know what he wants to do.
And what more does he have to say when we can already listen to his interviews and watch him climbing mountains? Anything he might say would possibly be overshadowed by the great footage that's already out there; the greatness that he's already accomplished might make talking into a mic seem mundane and minuscule in comparison.
But who knows? There's still plenty of potential endeavors left for him, he's only 33 yrs old. As long as he doesn't die, he can do pretty much whatever he wants.
I would too
Am I the only one who laughed when he said freebasing when not talking about cocaine
Probably the most interesting guest that has been in this show
So chill and humble. I can't get enough of his interviews. His Ted talk seemed a bit awkward but in this interview type he shines.
I would ABSOLUTELY ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ a podcast by Alex. He’s well spoken, informed, and quite funny in that flat, direct delivery. I’d devour anything he shared.
Joe: “ how many high end free soloists are there?”
Alex: “I don’t know... 2... or... 1 maybe”
Haha love this guy
Connor O'Malley He was trying so hard to stay humble. 😂
Was he though?
1 now...
Completely nuts!
@@bryantrace1 who died?
Neil Armstrong at Joe Rogan
Joe Rogan: "Neil so you was on the Moon? How many people before you were on the Moon?"
🤣
“Have you ever done DMT on the moon”
Cartel893 being an mma fighter is like being an astronaut
"Did you eat eggs on the moon? Ok good."
yeh it's been said a few times already.
What an amazing human being Alex is.
Since seeing his film, I can't seem to get enough of him here on CZcams lol chores be DAMNED. 😇👍
Would love to see Alex cometating on extreme sports!!! Him doing a podcast would be awesome too!!!
Joe: "do you....."
Alex: "no"
lol, just simply lol
hahaha i dont know why is funny
Me hahahahaha fuck that was funny
Joe "have you had blood work done" Rogan
Right?!
Its funny bc I bet my ass Joes Blood is all kinds of fucked ...but he doesnt show it online bc that would disprove keto
If you don’t eat 3 steak a day, Dr. Joe Rogan (PH.D in nutrition) will assume you’re dying of protein and iron deficiency
Joe " I only wipe my ass with hundred dollar bills" Rogan
It was wild watching the episode with the drs talking about taking care of deficiencies and what a drastic positive change it made for everyone they worked with. I'd love to have mine tested because I guarantee mines all jacked up

Love the fact that no matter what kind of science Joe throws at him, Alex just says never heard of it. Prove positive that simplicity in your life in every way is the real answer.
I just watched Free Solo. I can't watch action films now after that. What an amazing film. Alex is one hell of human being. The fearlessness he displays is incredibly admirable.
Alex: "Yeah, just free solo'd El Cap. I don't really focus on my diet much, just eat healthy."
Joe: "Have you heard of BETA NU TROPICZ ALPHA MALE SUPPLEMENTS? MY COMPANY SELLS EM"
I love your vids lol
Joe.....you are one of the best....most chill....relaxed interviewer I’ve ever seen. Bravo! You actually listen and follow up....
Alex mentions his friend, Brad Gobright, as one of the only other free soloists. Brad died a month after this interview in a rappelling accident in Mexico. RIP Brad
13 months later actually.
What a shocker
@@CantWeedThis did you even read his comment? Clearly not.
I've been waiting to see Alex come back on the podcast for years!! He is such a legend.
Seen Free Solo twice now. This kid is an absolute savage. I love him
I've been waiting for Alex to but the only Alex I want is Alex Jones
His vocal fry is gross tho...
Me too!
Yeah I was actually thinking about it like a month ago, "Alex should be back on the podcast", and here it is! Good shit.
Joe “I’m telling the guy who accomplished one of the greatest athletic feats in humankind how to have proper nutrition” Rogan
Joe knows about fighting, but he knows absolutely nothing about basic nutrition.
This is the arrogance thinking that being successful in one field confers expertise in another.
Hearing him talk about 'neutropics' and foods containing neurotransmitters made me cringe.
🤣🤣🤣
doneee
Gerhard Symons He literally brings on scientific nutritionists all the time. I GUARANTEE you he knows more than most people. Plus people like you probably also think Saturated Fat causes a Cholesterol increase and blood pressure. Old teachings are getting shit on by new findings in health.
Some people projecting hard here, theyre seeing themselves making this point but Joe isn't a fat neckbeard living on the internet.
Listening to his stories makes my palms sweat repeatedly at different parts of the video. Even without images.. it's strange
An hour of Joe lecturing one of the world's greatest athletes why he need to buy Rogan's products, and Alex just being polite about it.
I thought that too. Joe is just trying to selling his product. It was a good 1 hour advertisement for him.
This guy has balls of STEEL. Derrick Lewis just has hot balls.
Hot balls can't melt steel balls
Derrick Lewis was an inside job
what does Rogan have? Funny balls?
Derrick" my balls are hot "lewis
Putting up with Rogan in this interview was a bigger achievement that soloing el cap
😂
He is so dumb. He sounds stoned out of his mind the whole interview, tries to tell one of the greatest athletes about nutrition, has obviously not prepared at all just asking the stupidest questions
Andrew this guy literally admitted that he doesn’t do a lot for nutrition until very recently and doesn’t get advice from nutritionists or physiology therapists rogan was just trying to keep a conversation, and it’s not just about talking to Alex about nutrition the people watching who didn’t know now have insight
When you're a climber you basically need to accept that not many people will understand what you're talking about. Whenever i try to explain a climbing trip to my non-climber friends/family, i have to explain absolutely everything. That being said, Rogan wan't that slow and Alex was explaining everything quite well
Yawn
There’s something about Alex’s eyes that I can’t ignore 👁 👁 they’re soooo black, deep, pure and focused
Hmmm... and his talk, like he mumbles, actually speed talks, but really sharply. He seems like he is person on a higher state of mind, like he evolved into superhuman... So I met couple of people with same kinds of eyes and talk, and state of mind. They are like a same person in terms of perception of life, self awareness, mindfulness and stuff, but also they are wierdly selfish, more like egocentric.... they are absolutely lovable but don't seek for that love... wierd people... hmmm
@@saramirko9364 yeah actually this is the kind of people that I admire a lot, just the fact that they have the ability and courage to go for what they believe to be the meaning of life, to see through the truth, put other’s beliefs and expectations of them aside, consume all of their time and energy in their own goal. And for sure sometimes they appear to be selfish, like in the documentary the thing between Alex and his girlfriend. You already know that people, relationship, things like that is NOT his priority, so it’s your decision whether you choose to deal with him or not.
I love how he is trying to convince him to eat clams and oysters, but his reasoning is environmental. Oyster harvesting is one of the worst things for the environment because oysters filter the water and the way they are harvested often destroys the habitats.
I think they’re sustainable to farm...not take from wild habitat.
Obviously Justin Long will play him in the movie biopic.
I was trying to think of his name....all I had was the guy from DODGEBALL....nice catch dude
Either him or Joseph Gordon-Levitt would be the obvious choices, lol.
Justin long looking dude
Or ezra miller
Is his girlfriend a tard?
Alex Honnold is a legend - what a great podcast and a great guest!
WARNING I am the unprettiest human worldwide, but somehow I have TWO girlfriends. Join me on my highly stimulating channel, dear wrong
He's a living legend
Guy looks like the way more athletic version of Justin long
He should play this guy in a rock climbing movie.
Bro, I legit thought the same thing lmao
Acts like way less of a pussy too
@@tinyer3 guy has balls of steel climbs mountains without rope lol
Like Justin Long possessed by alien force. Look at them black eyes 👀
Joe: “you should totally make a podcast”
Alex: “ill think about it”
Joe: “dude, like, you should TOTALLY do it”
Alex: “yeah.. ill think about it”
Joe: “EVERYONE would listen to it, YOU REALLY should make it”
Alex: “..as i said, ill thi..”
Joe: “MAKE A PODCAST”
He had the most sensible outlook on eating meat or not eating neat I have ever heard.
This guy has his head screwed on right in every way.
I guess you gain great perspective and calmness doing what he does.
@@sagemeridian8920 the podcast
@@sagemeridian8920 18:20
What a wonderful human being this guy is. So humble given what he has achieved, not a shred of ego.
"If only there was an audio recording of you leading up to your climb of el cap"
"Well that's what the movie is for...."
joe "feel my hands they're sweating just talking about this" rogan
Joe "Do you eat eggs? Ok good" Rogan
Read your comment. Finally found the bit you referred to. Died.
It seems to me like the whole point of it was that joe was worried that not having protein was somehow a bad thing, which it is. Eggs are a good source of protein that aren't meat
Gaplodocus you can get protein from nuts, grains, seeds, tofu, and a bunch of other stuff like powder, shakes, etc.
the 'ok good' bit is so irritating
@@moistydoooood can't get creatine though and not shitty powder the stuff from meat that gives explosive power
