As a Bartender in LA, I am asked if I want to be an actor on a daily basis. When I tell them, "No, I'm a 5th generation Bartender. This is MY career."
They look at me with both pity and disbelief.
So weird.
Fake people are always bewildered by real people.
@@herbertthewaterrat truer words have never been spoken
I'm kinda jealous of having a career like that. Like a craft.
I’ve had and seen the opposite effect across the U.S. where you’ll receive looks of bewilderment if you want to be an actor or anything artistic haha. So in a way LA is a “safespace” for people with that kind of artistic pursuit but it’s ironic and moronic that people essentially flip the switch and do the same back to people like you, but that’s how people are… very tribal
Same here, I walk around in fly clothes and everyone assumes I’m a rapper. But I’m in sales lol
Everything he is describing applies to corporate culture as well.
Exactly. The whole time, I was thinking "wait... he really believes this phenomenon is different from any corporate job interview, in any area of the country (or world for that matter), for the past several decades?"
On top of that, imagine choosing this particular industry (of acting/entertainment) where you're *constantly* applying for job-after-job...where you know beforehand that each job is *designed* to last a very limited amount of time...where you are forced to move on to the next gig. Um, yes, you tell your potential employers what you know they want to hear. It's not at all exclusive to L.A. or Hollywood.
@@toddmargeson3330 jobs last, acting and fame don't. Hollywood is way more corrosive.
Josh, can't tell if your reply was intended to be a rebuttal of my comment or not, but your first sentence is a reinforcement of my last paragraph, and the underlying point: acting/entertainment jobs don't last (and are that way by design), which is different from "normal" jobs. Yet even with normal, long-lasting career jobs, people (applicants) posture disingenuously to land the job. So of *course* the same is going to happen in a line of work where every job is fleeting by design.
As for your second sentence, that may or may not be true; I have no personal experience in that.
@@joshuatunis6732 well it clearly does for some people
Joe probably hasn't had to interview for a job outside entertainment (or even inside entertainment) for a long time. He probably has forgotten what a corporate job interview is like.
This is everywhere now though. Look at the reverence for athletes. I used to work for a Fortune 50 company & saw the CEO of the company on the elevator. You weren't allowed to talk to him or even look in his direction. It's power syndrome. It's not just Hollywood. People with power are pretty much a-holes everywhere.
Damn you couldn’t even look in his direction, what kind of narcissistic shit is that
Digusting, these ceos need a reality check. Cant even look in his direction..smh these guys got ass kissers EVERYWHERE. Disturbing.
My corporate job was the same, you couldn't talk to the top teir guys. Company failed from their incompetence lol.
“Absolute power corrupts absolutely”
Maybe the CEO is just shy? I'm shy AF and don't have much money lol
Joe is spot on. I remember bartending in NYC back in 2012. I was amazed at the number 40+ yo's who still thought they had a chance. I would tell them on occasion, you should go into sales. If you really like rejection that much.
Or start a youtube channel or something
@@jasonablah7702 youtube has even worse odds arguably. They have to accept their inability and move on
@@stevenburrito7032 idk there are an endless amount of niche channels where people make a decent living. not all of them multi-millionaires but enough to not have a regular job.
*at least with youtube people get to decide. with acting it is all up to a handful of producers.
@@stevenburrito7032 that's not a fair comparison the way I see it. The only equivalence is that a lot of people get lost trying to beat the competition, when a lot of gifted people slip through the cracks. However I wouldn't compare the corrupt and biased Hollywood to CZcams where generally if you're gifted and you take the time and effort, you can get places. Of course it's easier said than done, don't get me wrong, but you can't tell me there's isn't a right way to do it to have a chance. If you're better than the next 10 influencers in your circle you already have a leg up... In terms of video quality, editing, consistency, etc
fuck that's a good one.
Joe's comments reminded me of this quote:
"Never depend on the admiration of others. There is no strength in it. Personal merit cannot be derived from an external source."
is this marcus aurelius?
@@shotgun111180 It is from a stoic, but I'm not sure it's from Marcus.
@R One thing I've discovered over many years on earth is that common sense is not as common as you think.
@@shotgun111180 it’s from a Greek philosopher by the name of Epictetus, who was one of the stoics that influenced Marcus.
@@shotgun111180 It is Epictetus
He needs a fucking lot more than 10 minutes to list everything wrong with Hollywood.
He had to limit his response because Texas ran out of power with their true leadership - I heard one flew to Cancun
@@littlebob1261, haven’t kept up with any news lately, eh? California already having rolling blackouts and it’s not July yet
@@turdferguson8227 so is Texas
Only question is will republican leadership run to Mexico again
@@littlebob1261 You know there are annual blackouts already in California right..
@@SA-hz1rs Cruz is a Senator, not the governor. Do you need education in "Constitutional Republic" meaning, and the difference between Federal, State and local government?
People move to Los Angeles with these crazy expectations, but the reality is you gotta have connections and money.
People move to Maryland with these crazy expectations, but the reality is you gotta have connections and money.
Or a nice body you're willing to spread around.
Or get lucky like Joe did, which is 1 in a million in LA.
And Jewish. Kidding!
@@Cudder17 actually true
The greatest irony is how Hollywood - a place completely choke-full of arrogant bullies, is now trying to speak on behalf of others about bullying.
Like, most of these stories about actors and directors treating their PAs and interns like garbage is rooted in fact. We’ve got instances of people having coffee or other drinks thrown at them. People being reduced to tears for the smallest offenses. Now suddenly it is those same bullies telling the rest of us to be kind to each other.
Sounds kind of like Trump using the corrupt system and claiming he can change it.
This should be required viewing for everyone who moves to LA for showbiz!
Nope David Chappelle on the Actor's Studio. That should be required viewing for being in showbiz
I don't think that will prevent people from wanting to be in showbiz. He literally had a show where people did crazy nasty disgusting stuff to get on TV.
I've lived in LA my whole life but I'm a son of an immigrant
I think it would be better if showbiz moved in part out of LA. Someone should open a studio in the Midwest, someone else should open one in the East. And smaller independent studios should be given more opportunities and investment.
@@nate1066pollock that’s just spreading the virus.
Ricky Gervais on everything wrong with Hollywood:
_Ricky Gervais at the Golden Globes 2020 - All of his bits chained_
Ricky... Will forever be a legend after that. Only celebrity Id actually like to meet and shake his hand.
I've never liked a monologue so much. He absolutely roasted those pretentious asses. Savage.
Joe isn’t even sitting on his seat that’s how strong his calves are
As someone from Canada who hates the cold, LA was just really nice to visit and enjoy the weather, have some good food and do some shopping.
Same.
I grew up in LA and have lived here most of my life. I’ve never wanted to get into the entertainment industry, but I have dated actresses and had friends that were actors, and I can say Joe’s take is spot on.
Joe is surrounded by more of that than most people who live in or lived in Los Angeles so his viewpoint is warped. He also seems to want to validate his decision to bolt by constantly dumping on la and california
There are plenty of vagrants taking dumps on La La Land.
@@ubuu7 Who needs a special reason to dump on LA and CA?
@@johndeaux3703 Conservatives. They are so petty and insecure they feel a deep desire and need to tear down supposed bastions of liberalism. CA and places like Los Angeles failing to them is an example of their superior world view and belief.
@@ubuu7 - oh yeah dude, the city that worships the red carpet and have a paparazzi industry? The city that goes overkill with cosmetic surgery?
Calling other people's views warped?
You're pointing out what again???
John Cena apologizing to China in Chinese, for referring to Taiwan as a country is another example of someone successful saying whatever they have to say. America is compromising it's morals for a dollar.
It'd true I'm sure the wwe sells a lot in China it's the same reason Hollywood movies randomly have a movie in Hong Kong or some shit because they're pandering to the Chinese viewers
What morals? lmao
America was born compromising it's morals. _Give me liberty, or give me death!_ _And don't forget my slaves!_
Cena did that not just for his money but for the money of everyone in the movie. They would've lost a lot of money if China banned the movie.
What he did was necessary but unfortunate.
@@aadityamurali18 that's like saying slavery was necessary but unfortunate, because it would've cost a lot people money.
Sad thing is, a lot of companies are acting like this when they're in the hiring process and start asking you a bunch of weird questions that have nothing to do with the job you're supposed to do.
True secretly they all want to screw around while at work, men have feelings to
I miss the '90s Joe Rogan when he wasn't a whiney snowflake that complained about everything.
@@vivalarazausarmyvet4453 but hollywood turned him into this?
Yeah, they are called stress questions -meant to throw the interviewee off their game and see their "true character".
@@vivalarazausarmyvet4453 Co-opting the word "snowflake" doesn't make your use of it accurate. The true snowflake is the guy who gets mad because Joe doesn't share his opinion, which is what I suspect is your problem with him on this.
Crazy what people would do just to be recognized even for a short time.
Well they're gambling, putting it all on black hoping to be set for life financially, or rather putting it all on 0 for that roulette ratio for success.
@Arkadius Those people are the actors in every single movie or tv show you've ever loved. Have some respect for those practicing the craft. A$$hole.
*I never cared about being recognized. I just had something I wanted to do. The only problem is I learned very quickly I couldnt' STAND the people Id have to be around to do it. Its amazing how much the quality of people who surround you really matter. Youll let go of a dream if it means drowning in a tank of sharks.*
@@RumourdProd no
I auditioned once in San Francisco and the casting directors or whoever they were - were as smug as can be. And I thought to myself - this is not for me. They acted exactly like Joe said they act.
They were waiting to proposition you and see what they could get you to do.
@@edp3202 yeah he didn't mention the sex cults did he? I was watching groupie stories from the 80s and 90s and guys admitted at some point its not about getting only sex, but how far they could push the girls to do extreme things. Marilyn Manson was involved in those types of activities, not to single him out, there was even an audio recording on the internet some years ago.
@@stevenp9209 Harvey weinstein is a perfect example of that
Yeah, but the Tadich Grill has yummy grasshoppers.
What did you think it would be? Harvey Weinstein is a perfect example of who these people are.
This was great. Joe’s spot on with the culture out there. It’s gross
accurate discription of hollywood culture
Its probably not anymore gross than Wall Street, high end corporate, sports, television etc.
Krystal & Sagaar asking that question as if they don't already have the answer, living in DC.
Yet Joe still supports the industry by going to see movies and watching TV shows.
So toxic
Oh so potential employees kissing their boss butts…never heard of that lol
Yeah but imagine doing that 3 times a day for the rest of your life.
@@AdamEX1 true
@@AdamEX1 People have zero respect for themselves.
It's more the unhealthy behaviour from those in power. Leading to predators going unpunished for decades.
@@whitegoodman7465 Lack of self respect is part of it but Wanting to be hired by a production in order to perform your purpose and the hope of the notoriety isn’t evil alone. The trick that you can only do it big time if you’re cast in a production is the real evil. Imagine if film actors all started casting themselves in their own films that got distribution. It would destroy film studios. The game would be over.
Kwame Brown has coined them “ the go along get along gang”.
I wonder if Joe heard about Mommas Cooking. These Revelations about Hollywood is Late but Great.
Daaaang! "Get up, with the get-along gaaaang, get up with the get-along gang..." The only gang legally ally to all. Toothbrush to tongue. GAG. To brush teeth well, is to brush the tongue too. GUWTGAG
@Todd Joiner 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Definitely not Licoln I mean Biden.
No different than getting a job in a federal agency like the justice department, IRS, CDC... etc. You have to “talk their talk” and “walk their walk”.
Couldn't agree more!
Sounds like any old job interview. There is all this advice on how to prepare. And you know the do and don't. The interviewer has all the power and you are selling yourself like a commodity.
@@sabinereynaudsf I dunno. I doubt you could defy your future employers mission statement in the interview, and still expect to get a job in the private sector.
Fax
Come on dude, it's the same with every corporation in the USA!
I did a screen writing school over there and hung out with, and still keep in touch with one of the most powerful families in Hollywood. As a long time industry insider, even the most established families in Hollywood are paranoid about the folks they have to deal with every single day.
In what way are they paranoid? Just curious to know as someone that studied theatre in college.
It never ends. You feel like a beginner forever.
Roflmao they have all the power hence Harvey Weinstein being praised publicly for decades by actors and politicians, and they all had heard something over the decades if not outright knew what he did. No wonder they are so messed up
Rogan describing today's culture on his own podcast is fascinating.
1:44 Joe literally described most job interviews
it’s deeper than that
I worked WITH actors at a talent management company when I first moved to L.A. Some of what Joe says is soooo true. Being an actor in LA is basically non-stop job interviews and trying to sell yourself every day.
But I will say, once I got out of that industry, life in L.A. felt very different and I don’t really feel that the people outside the entertainment world are like that at all. My non-actor / non-movie industry friends are all totally authentic, down to earth folks. There’s less pressure to conform outside of that “Hollywood” world.
As soon as I left California I felt so different , I realized how shitty LA truly is
I live 50 miles inland of LA. I get to watch local plays and musicals by some of the greatest talent. These are the people that know they won’t make the big times, have moved on to other livelihoods and are in love with acting and singing. They seem emotionally healthy and are super friendly and approachable.
Joe's take on the acting world bears little resemblance to reality. He's an entertainer, picking edge cases and that's fine. I've certainly met narcissistic weirdos but most actors are normal people, the good ones being the most chill, self actualized, and socially aware folks out there. These tend to be theatre actors who love the craft, literature and are naturally curious about their fellow man.
Local theater is good like that. The actors work day jobs but they really love their craft so they do it. And sure, it's not Broadway, but it's fun enough to watch.
As usual, anecdotal evidence isn't actually evidence of anything except your own personal experiences. They can't be accurately extrapolated into an overarching theory of everything one way or another.
@Keith Bright almost nothing about Joe rogans los angeles experience is Representative.
@Keith Bright Your logic is weak and your comment is dumb.
Great work you two!! I moved from LA (born & raised) because of that atmosphere. I love cinema but I don’t like Hollywood. I love music but I don’t like the Music Industry. Joe rogan hit the nail on the head on the lack of opinion just to fit in. As a native, I always felt it was sooo weird all this suck-up behavior.
This is spot on about hollywood
I know a psychiatrist whose entire client list is messed up ego-bashed artists. Heartbreaking.
Oh no. 😢
It is up to a point. If someone finds they can't move forward in one field for years, then maybe it's time to try something else. Chasing fame and fortune is a sure way to become bitter and unbalanced. There's nothing wrong with taking up a regular job in any given regular field.
There's a lot of pressure that comes with the job though.
my uncle is a psychiatrist who works in the California state prison system in which most of the inmates he deals with are from the greater Los Angeles area. i don't think he deals with a lot of artist types. but i'll ask him next time.
This one homeless guy on some A&E show was interviewed and he was physically and mentally in good shape. He was an "out if work" actor and seemed to refuse to find another line of work so he just accepted homelessness.
A very interesting and accurate description of the entertainment industry mindset. But as far as describing the second largest city in the U.S., it's worth remembering that the percentage of Los Angeles residents who work in entertainment is approximately 2%.
Exactly. Transplants are the reason for most of the LA stereotypes.
@@joshuagossett9757 and when we think of transplants in LA, they and the entertainment industry, mostly reflect the demographics of the rest of the US.
That's right. LA is way more than some damn comedians or wanna be actors.
LA is more than actors… it’s also models, singers, dancers, influencers. There is a certain “what will you do for me” mentality. But maybe that only exists between the valley down over to west LA. 😂
stupidity breeds in convorsation with others / way of thinking
Joe: "It's better for them to want you and not be able to get you."
Krystal: "That's weird."
Jennifer Aniston & Matthew Perry: "Not weird at all!" Winding up with $18 Million for just the final season of Friends... apiece. After already being cast in something else but the Friends producers still wanted them for the pilot.
I grew up in Los Angeles and moved after 40 years. I moved to Texas because of the affordability, but Texas has horrible things as well. Everywhere has good and bad things about it, people just want to hear what fits their narrative.
I’m sorry, but no. I’ve lived in Ga, NYC, Kentucky, and LA. LA is absolutely the worst in that no one is real. Or very few at least. Even outside the industry this mentality pervades. NYC is just as liberal, but people will tell you things straight out. It’s not fake. I never felt uneasy in general anywhere in my life until I moved to LA. And it all comes down, seriously, to the disingenuous nature of that town across the board.
Facts!!!
I'm an actor in Cleveland, OH. I did a SAG film about 10 years ago, and was eligible to join the union, never did. Never had any interest in moving to LA because my family is here. I will say I once drove to NY for an audition and was immediately confronted by the haughty "dance for me monkey" attitude of the casting director that Joe describes. Its a huge turnoff.
Local theater, resident theater, which does worthwhile work - the great playwrights, as well as some not so great playwrights, who wrote extremely entertaining things, George S Kaufman being an example - is an extraordinary asset for a community. As much as I love movies, I've found myself wishing they'd never been invented. Think how much more literate and truly imaginative a culture we might have. I'm glad you've stayed home, and I'm sure many people in Cleveland are, too.
@@Anthony-jd3mu You don't want to hear experiences people have had?
Everyone has to interview for a job. Interviews are pretty big turn offs too. Most people don’t enjoy it but they do it because they want the job. Auditions are just a different kind of interview. If you wanted a full time career making a living as an actor, you would do them too.
I'm from Columbus, OH but moved to LA. I'm literally planning to move back to the Midwest. This place is psycho and I consider myself to be progressive.
Tessitura9 First time in the big city, eh? The culture shock if you’re from quieter parts can take some getting used to but a lot of people eventually do. Don’t give up too soon. LA has its good and bad like any place and especially any big city. If you want to be back closer to family that’s something different though.
Marlon Brando wrote his autobiography "Lying for a Living". So true
I'm always looking for books to read, thank you
There was a chat show appearance he made (can’t remember which one) where he said we’re all acting. At our jobs, etc. It’s true.
Well that's a true description of the Acting craft, not really a moral judgement...
Ironic... considering a book you buy called "lying for a living" as truth.
I like this version of the JRE better
Red hot chili peppers "californication" is a very beautiful slightly abstract derivative of this exact concept. Blinding lights by the weekend also depicts this very well.

I think Marcus Aurelius had a servant remind him all day that "You're just a man. You're just a man."
He also slept on the floor for that very reason.
Batman facts
If you have a servant just for that one task, you are no ordinary man. Mission failed.
@@zestyfg There have been many people in similar situations throughout history, both in government and the private sector who did the exact opposite, surrounding themselves with sycophants and servile people who tell them non-stop how great they are all day long. They surround themselves with "Yes Men" that never contradict them, all day long, so they are never challenged. Not many had the wisdom or insight that Marcus Aurelius had. People like him are few and far between.
At least he tried
Having grown up and living in LA, and being liberal, you see people who move here and they become even more liberal to an extreme, where it almost becomes a meme.
I grew up in LA and have now become much less liberal after seeing the disgusting pandering, and fake solidarity the current Democrat party projects.
there is an eagerness to fit in, so much its overcompensation is suffocating. Im an asian american, and I meet people from East asia coming here for work visa and college. often they are very much culturally east asian, but from time to time, there is an insufferable individual trying to assimilate into the western ideal that becomes obviously toxic.
@@MmaLegend420 pandering the last four years more like it. What do you think the conservative voting no on everything means? Even things they take credit for after. That's the definition of pandering. Get over yourself man.
@@Vacardi Hilarious how they've conditioned you to think that if I disagree with the Dems, I must be Republican. You've inadvertently fallen into their trap for you, and continue to fuel the culture war. You played yourself kid. Get over yourself.
@@Vacardi The Republicans and the Democrats want us to turn on each other, instead of focusing on the real issues, and the people who have stolen the wealth of the middle and working class. Neither the Democrats or the Republicans are the solution. _They are the problem._
I had lifelong friends move to LA. Art, Music and Hollywood FX industries and they all turned into these vapid, yes men automatons with a quiet, passive aggressive viciousness. It's odd- to be successful there, you have to be a mean-spirited beta or a mean spirited narcissist. I'm glad I didn't drink the LA Kool-Aid when I lived there briefly.
Honestly these camera angles are a lot better than the ones normally used on the podcast. Even the cameras are clearly better too, the image is so crisp and it actually looks well lit.
Narcassists that make happy and sad faces for a living. Not the best place to go for signs of intelligent life.
Exactly, they're acting surprised about it when that's the way the place has always been. When you go there, you sense the fakeness immediately. If you decide to live there, you want to be part of the bs.
right and we're supposed to look for political and moral guidance from these people? I love joe forgets to add in the devil secret society shit that also goes on in order to get into that scene aka sell your soul.
i'm born and raised in Los Angeles and most of the folks i know are down to earth working class types . the culture of Hollywood is as alien to me as it would be to someone from say the Midwest or anywhere else.
@@bconni2 I imagine that is quite true. When I was a kid California was the promised land.
Given the number of people fleeing I am left to wonder how the Democrats keep getting voted in.
@@larrydugan1441
Nearly 40 million people live in California. That's over one in every ten Americans living there. You'd have to add up the population of several red states to equal the population of California. People are fleeing there???? Good the state could use a break. Btw, it's an absolutely beautiful state. It's the over-population and billionaire corporate corruption that is ruining the state.

Joe Rogan is the best interview guest ever. You can literally ask him a single question and he'll just fill an entire show with his answer. And it's a legitimately entertaining and insightful answer.

Awesome video! It is great to get insight from someone who has been immersed in the culture. It explains a lot. By the way it also happens in NYC but not as ubiquitous.
I'm born and raised in la. While this might be true for the entertainment industry, most people from la are normal ass people and are not that political. It's the people who move here and feel they need to reinvent them selves that are like this. In my experience anyway.
This is true, I'm 37 yo, African American, born and raised in LA, Republican AF.
Dated an actress once. . . Told me that many actresses sleep with Assistant directors and Directors for more lines (more lines = more 💵), also that drugs are peddled every where. And yep, pedophilia is spoken to be normalized I wanted to vomit 🤮 when I heard the stories.
@@winstonsmith6204 you didn't date a actress bruh. Stop telling CZcams fables to make a point. I think we already knew people sleep around to further their career, any career.
I was going to say something like this. He is spot on about the entertainment industry but us locals aren't really like this. Fair to say Joe probably didnt mingle with the blue collar crowd when he was living here.
Yeah I’ve visited LA and most people seem normal.
From my experience, everyone in LA is extremely fake and trying to be someone they’re not. Even the people who probably try to not be like that end up getting caught up in the oneupmanship.
It’s not my kind of place and I’ve traveled all across the country and been across Europe, south & North America, Asia and Australasia. I can’t think of many places that I haven’t enjoyed visiting, but I just hate disingenuous people.
Pretty depressing, but it sounds like Las Vegas. They're gambling for riches in a different way, and overestimating their talent like other gamblers overestimate their luck.
Yes. Exactly. But it's not Las Vegas and the gamblers, it's Las Vegas and gaming.
I live in LA and I’ve met several people like that trying to make it. The problem is that they don’t know when to stop trying and end up becoming homeless.
Clark County is like LA NOW, because 80% of our population is from LA County.

Why would that depress you? None of your business. If you don't like Hollywood, don't watch. It's a free country.
This isn't a representation of the culture in Los Angeles. Very few people here actually want to work in that industry.

I knew it came from lab at start and it didn't take long to see the way out on the news. Most people don't know how to watch the news. Joe only just found out and I saw before his 2 guests.

Listen to 101 . Listened to Tom for years at work .
@@jackanderson2773 what is this?
@@mtsobolo6322 Leykis 101 is a doctrine developed and promulgated by US radio personality Tom Leykis designed to teach male listeners how to achieve the most sex within the least amount of time, effort and money. ... Leykis 101 students are cautioned against spending more than $40 on a date.
That suit jacket looks like a Head & Shoulders commercial.
Reminds me of Johnny "Drama" on Entourage..
Love when this 3 get together
Wait till Kyle gets on!
@@gumerzambrano I'm really looking forward to that
GREAT idea to interview him back. Absolutely brilliant! I've never seen him being interviewed. He really likes you guys and it's nice of him to give you such a boost at the beginning of your own venture!
fantastic interview. good people!❤🙏
Did Joe changed his studio set again? It’s much better now, better light.
Joe spends 10 minutes just describing job interviews
Not really, not even close. So long as you didn't pick gender studies. Its pretty damn easy to get a job at the moment. *Every one is desperate for employees* Including my own company. Problem is that unemployment is to good.
Not serious jobs
@@CrazyNikel if unemployment is better than the wages you offer, your wages suck. Either your business deserves to die off if it cant compete, or you are a greedy owner.
@@AlexTSilver But it's not. People are willing to sacrifice a lot just to be able to sit at home. Just look at the ghettos that are stuck voting for liberals. *Easy money is worth twice as much as difficult money.*
@@AlexTSilver lol.. its not about walfare and wages are the same, its about NOT WORKING ur FREE and recive a check... In my country people on walfare, dont need to pay health insurance, kindergarden, school, they get max child support from country... unless you have a wage that is like 50% higher from minimu wage at minimun, it just doest make sense of working!
This is a nice light hearted conversation. You can just sense that all three are honest. No smugness. This is how normal people talk.
I honestly think that celebs become a mouth piece for the hollywood agenda. If they don’t say what they’re told, their careers are over. So, I think it extends beyond people just trying to get into show biz. Look at how many celebs change their “viewpoints” once they become famous.
I'm a struggling actor and I'm concervative so we do exist but we shut our mouths
How about not acting? Then you won't have to struggle
Why do conservatives have so much trouble with spelling?
Be yourself, and if they don't like it, it's their loss.
Same thing basically. When you shut up they think you are with them
@@TheBigblumonkey then what’s the point of being there
That song Lost in Hollywood by System of a Down is some real shit. This place eats lives.
Yeah man love that band! They speak so much truth in their songs and that is one of them.

This is literally from Rogan's podcast...
Being a musician in SoCal in the 90’s it was a similar feeling. Always felt any relationship was built on if I get to know you or let you get to know me does it help me. Rather than just, you seem cool, let’s get a beer or go see that movie, etc. I should have spent more time away from other musicians but when you’re trying to do a band your world becomes other bands and people who run or work in venues. After 15 years of that it was time to get out of the bars and clubs and get some corporate daddy health insurance and 401k. 😂
It’s not just like that in Hollywood, any area of the arts is like that. There’s so much subjectivity and competition, you can’t afford to offend with an unacceptable opinion.
So Los Angeles actor hiring is just an extreme version of everyone in the U.S. who just wants a job?
You don't have to pretend to be a leftist to get a job in the rest of the country.
@@josephpeeler5434 try working in education
@@josephpeeler5434 in California you still have to pretend not to be a leftist to get a job outside of the industry
pretty sure the exact opposite was talked about here. perhaps you need listen again.
@@matthewbyronlewismusic9625 Absurd. Those of us on the right are a lot more tolerant than the totalitarians on the left.
What Rogan describes is something that happens in almost every single job interview in America.
@Aristarch,
Yes, he presents it as if this is unique to actors! And I bet there are plenty of people out there who work or used to work for Rogan who would say what a smug grifter he is. And what actress would be desperate enough to 'date' someone like Rogan? It is so obviously wishful thinking on his part.
@@allegory6393 is this serious? You don't think Hollywood has more of an 'echo chamber' than other parts of the country? And you honestly can't imagine someone using another person for their fame / influence?
@@djhart25 hollywood can have hundreds or thousands of actors trying for a part for a single slot. What kind of dynamic do you think that kind of math creates?
Most people are not in those industries and don't have to deal with dynamics that warped.
Exactly.
@@djhart25
Why would I think Hollywood is anymore of an echo chamber than any other Industry.
What spotify ephoside was this?
Can we use these cameras for the podcast?
Joe Rogan (younger) was a perfect Tony Danza type. All the sitcom casting directors had 'We're looking for a Tony Danza type' in their notes.
I thought the same. Young Tony Danza type with a little more muscles.
This was an inspirational episode, since I'm dealing with depression, I find Joe's methods sensible. I really do think you can't fix things mentally, you really need to get moving and accumulate like an avalanche.
You can build momentum! It is very doable for everyone with determination and commitment.
Learn the vocabulary. That's the first & most important step. Verbally use the lingo, too.
I’m a 22 year old actor who is about to head out to LA in a few months, and Joe just described everything that I’ve been mentally preparing for lol
Do it for the experience not for the outcome.
@@manthedestroyer that’s the plan my man
CORPORATE conscience kills the human soul language of sound reason.
I like that Joe clearly understands and feels for the people who don't make it in Hollywood, who keep trying to get onboard that ship and never succeed. It's a tragedy and a waste, but if people understood that the struggle to succeed was a success, things might be better.
I was in SoCal a couple of months ago and we went to take my mom to a dermatologist for her skin condition. I looked on the directory at the hospital building and more than half the building were plastic surgeons. I asked my brother's gf about it and she rolled her eyes and said welcome to southern California.
This also describes the literary world. I avoid writing conferences like the plague for the very reasons Joe describes; there’s just so much pressure to write and think a certain way and write about a select few themes or subjects. Meanwhile, we can’t call out literary magazines for their ridiculously low acceptance rates, and we’re strongly discouraged from self-publishing. I’m lucky in that I’ve had work published before, but people in this world are very good at making you feel like your achievements are a fluke.
Agreed. Excellent summary.
"I stopped dating actresses in the 90s."
😆 🤣 😂 Joe is spot on about actors willing to do and say anything to be LIKED because that's their livelihood. In Hollywood, authenticity is a vice, not a virtue.
this is why 9 out of 10 of all actresses smash the directors
Actors also.
*WRONG!* 10 out of 10.
Nothing wrong with sex work to get non-sex work that pays better.
@@chachaguillotine187 "Nothing wrong"? really? nothing nothing?
Then they wait for 10 years to cancel them as they keep making millions.
Loved this! X I’m from a really sh*tty town no ones heard of in England and listening to this was brilliant! X people may not be glam and rich around here but bloody hell they are down to earth and very friendly and happy! X still wanna go and visit Hollywood and the rest of for that matter America even for holidays! X 😎👌💯❤️
heyyyy love you guys glad ur on the show
Joe reveals the reason he left LA and what he envisions he can turn Austin into.
Lol
Austin is already a Portland enclave in Texas. Thankfully, there have been studies showing that red-state-to-blue-state transplants are typically conservative.
@N S Actual science indicates the reverse is true.
Joe is moving back to LA Iike Tim dillon did
@N S yup
La and NYC, Chicago, sf
Red states are boring af
"A completely non natureal environment, its usually a conference room in a production office. And you're in this non natural environment with these smug people who have this massive amount of power over you. And it shapes the way people communicate." So a job interview?
Yeah, it sounds like a corporate job interview to me. Sounds exactly like a job interview during poor economic times with a competitive market.
Except the demand for jobs is always massively outweighed by those seeking them. Think about the job market now. I've literally seen managers begging people to come work for them, with or without experience. That doesn't happen in Hollywood. There's always another narcissist waiting to cut your throat for a chance to get in..
Exactly. This was my thought as well. That is not exclusive to Hollywood. I work in corporate America and it is exactly the same thing there. Like 100 percent
@@Nick-kb2jc hundred percent.
Yes clearly Joe has never had a job interview and lucked out with his first shows.
Joe Rogan is a big example of 'being authentic is the Best' 💪
In casting, auditions, and interviews. The one thing that gets you the job is just talking with the other person. If you've never been to an audition before and you come at it like an interview it's easy
People who are artists, who are called to it, whether they be actors, directors, writers, musicians, comics, etc. -- they're all crazy on some level, beyond normal people, because they have to be. No sane, intelligent person would choose this much misery to go through on a daily basis, against such astronomical odds, to make a living. But I think we can all agree that when art succeeds, it is all worth it. When you see a play or movie that resonates deeply with you, or read a book you greatly enjoy, hear a song you instantly connect with, or hear a joke that makes you fall out of your seat laughing, you appreciate all the suffering they endured for you.
I was once around a lot of comedians and what I found is similar to what you say. Highly intelligent people with major personality issues.
Unless we’re talking about Bob Dylan and a few others who never caved to the bs.
Artists are different, Joe is not talking about that. Joe is talking about the people who are different just for being different or because they think real artists are like that, those people are a huge turn off. Any artist worth his/her salt will never be a puppet to someone else's opinions, and you can easily differentiate between the two.
@@aneeshdubey30 Perfectly stated. Thank you.
Very few people in Hollywood are actual artists, mostly they're just insecure people who need attention.
Left Austin five years ago because it was becoming Texas’s LA
Don’t tell Rogan that, he still thinks he moved somewhere different than LA. Lol
I lived in San Antonio for one year, I never thought in my wildest dreams that Charles Barkley was right how many big fat women were there. Definitely those Churros. It's like the women there are allergic to working out 😀
@@spinninsessions9626 it’s happening everywhere. I saw a trolly full of tourist yesterday. 90% of them had to be overweight.
@@dharmaram7527 well compared to the real LA it’s prolly 10 years behind that level of despair.
@@Twosheets One time, my aunt and female cousin went with me to a Theme Park in San Antonio. When we left my aunt was in the car making weird expressions. I asked what's wrong and no lie she said She felt sorry for me on how many ugly or big women there were for me Lmfao! I was literally lolling but what a surprise.
His imitation of the Hollywood elitist is freaking hilarious
Hey Jo! Really enjoy your shows & how diverse it is., but I would say it’s like that everywhere there is this power struggle in most industries.
Joe: [speaks]
Krystal: “mmmmmmmmmm”
i'm literally listening to her speak words while reading this comment. fake news.
See the half cringe lol. But hey they gotta promote too!
only 10 minutes to list everything wrong with Hollywood?
Glad I’m just a surfer with my own small business. IDGAF about this culture they’re talking about… yet here I am watching and laughing.
Well unfortunately this is the problem everywhere. Children, parents, any worker in USA, teachers, Owners of small companies are telling us be professional, listen,behave, don’t question me or be reprimanded. Well that’s not life. Be YOU. Even if it’s unpopular! If you are unpopular at least you should still be happy about being true to who and what you are. THAT IS BRAVERY MAN.
