Micro dosing mushrooms responsibly for a short period have been proven to be more effective, efficient and healthier method for depression and anxiety, feeling lost, and/or lack of meaning/purpose in ones life; a couple weeks of use can last 6 to 12 months. No "medication" compares. Combine with a therapist is recommended as reprogramming our thought patterns and perceptions is a cornerstone to said issues.

@@marioeid930 that would be more useful for someone seeking spiritual growth and/or needing to get over and let go of an extreme traumatic event in ones life. All of natures plants ("drugs") should be respected, used appropriately and not abused. My oppinon on DMT would be to use under supervision by a professional, ie shaman, via ayahuasca. Avoid synthetic black market nonsense. Take a vacation to south/central america to an ayahuasca resort.

[@josewilliams9138]

Joe is a coward. If he was rock solid he would have Trump on his podacst and not give a fuck what anyone says because he's made enough money to not be affected no matter what happens. He just passes as a pseudo intellectual because he occasionally invites a smart individual onto his podcast for a long form discussion about absolutely jack shit that is useful to everyday people. But people appreciate it because it's actually genuine conversation which I can appreciate. However, Joe does not have rock solid views because I can bet he voted liberal but moved to a conservative state in Texas because financially he is a republican.

That whole censorship- and risk of being CANCELLED type problem is caused by ICANN (International Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers). ICANN administers a censorship-clause in the contract it binds the renters of subdomains to. The clause is about agreeing to not have any CONTENT that might cause anyone to have certain negative FEELINGS and that ICANN can terminate the rental contract if they do have any such CONTENT. The clause essentially forces the TENANTS (gmail, yahoo, youtube etc) to enforce subjective dictator style censorship power over all account USERS (including bloggers, podcasters etc). The subdomain TENANT pays a huge amount in annual rent, must have a large cash capital in the bank and must be a large company to even be allowed to RENT a subdomain, so rhat contract forces the TENANT to protect its investment. That is WHY the TENANT (youtube is one such TENANT) PASSES ON the censorship clause to the ACCOUNT holders (holders of email-accounts, youtube-accounts, you name it. See? This is the CORPORATION-RUN subdomain TENANCY-market. THAT is HOW free speech is eliminated. ELIMINATE ICANN and voila, problem solved.

When Lex questions whether negative media/online attention can "destroy you." I think he means it in the sense that it can destroy someone's psyche, or internal emotional well being. I don't think he just wonders about it taking a toll on your brand/business. If the former, then the best lesson to take from it all is that in just a few short months, everything just blows over and is mostly gone. I think the key lesson is simply to never overreact to the current BS being thrown at you. You don't even need mushrooms and workouts, per se. You just need to take a longer perspective on things than just a day or two. And know that everything just sort of runs its course, loses energy and dies down.

[@IndigoHazelnut]

I admire both Lex and Joe.. they’ve both shown such a strength of character which I find inspiring.. especially when faced with such criticism. I think most people listening to this understand the idiocy that underlines cancel culture.. because of its inherent expectation that one should not nor is allowed to make mistakes.. which is dehumanising. Making mistakes is part of what makes us human, that’s how we grow and learn. So the crux of this is.. if we really want to move forward we need to be okay with making mistakes.. and we need to be tolerant with others making mistakes as well otherwise we are creating a toxic environment for ourselves and others

You are thinking about it to deeply, proponents of cancel culture don't actually care about anything other than gaining control and power, "cancel" is just one of their tools to silence and remove rational opposition.

[@RajBeats]

Great clip right here. Great wisdom for anyone with a platform or even anyone who finds themselves overvaluing the opinions of others. Biggest takeaway for me is utilizing intentional enduring (like hard workouts, cold/hot stress therapy) to create a threshold point of "toughness" so everything else is a relative pain to that. Also mushrooms can be immensely helpful for genuine introspection and expanding empathy. Between those two opposing forces....makes sense to me.

"I think there's billions of people now actually" 🤣

[@dandurham1922]

We love you Joe. You’re clearly a person of considerable substance and character who has worked hard at gaining maturity. It’s right that you’re at the head of this movement.

So much hate for a guy who genuinely tries his best... I just don't get where all these hateful angels come from 🙄

is this satire?

[@dericmederos1514]

Try and guess how I know you're a conservative trumper? seriously just try and guess how i know this for a fact?

[@raging100]

I knew of some problems during the move to spotify but when did he get canceled lately? Or do they mean general cancel culture?

[@julesverne2509]

One thing I hate is when I hear people say, "you have such a big platform you have to be responsible in what you say". This is not right. People need to be more responsible and LISTEN

[@charleswomack2166]

I don't believe that Spotify would ever cancel Joe Rogan. He is their cash cow!

[@nickp440]

Why would they cancel such a great, informative, and successful show? Lmao

[@mocean365]

This is incredible!

[@bajaborracho9139]

Joe is a very deliberate thinker. I really admire the way he addresses perceived slights or attempts to smear him.

[@johnbushnell7929]

Keep trucking Joe Rogan. Great out look and approach.

[@applethunderspice3072]

This is why I LOVE Joe. Great guy

[@Flagg-iv1xf]

Was he really cancelled? Or was he just criticised? Maybe I dont understand what cancelled means.

[@Beantown85]

He wasn’t canceled but they sure as shit tried to bash him and want him gone so made an effort to make it happen. Joe can’t be canceled though here in the USA

[@ManicMindTrick]

What happened is that people tried to cancel him but he is uncanceleable at this time. If Spotify would have dropped him it would 1. Be financial suicide for Spotify 2. He would easily find another platform. If this was 2013 JRE they might have suceeded.

[@Gruso57]

Yea cancelled means the critics won and he is no longer doing the podcast.

[@EviLBoCkEr2k6]

The thing with cancelling is that it only happens if the target gives into it. Joe didn’t let it get to him, so just kept on moving. Unless they are actually removed from social media platforms etc. of course, but that very rarely happens.

[@IndigoHazelnut]

There was definitely a strong attempt to get him cancelled

[@Roboli-nr1mv]

Man Joe is such an inspiration. So practical and real

[@Fitness195]

These two together are the best of podcasts

[@chrisgeorgallis7746]

Joe is a great guy. He makes Alot of sense.

[@FM-lo9vv]

Joe Rogan has the warrior spirit, facing the villains with bravery, and growing in morals as a result.

[@johanneswestman935]

If he did he would just assert his right to say a damn word and tell the whiners to suck it. It’s just a word. Get over it burgers.

[@ZachByrd]

One of the best gifts Joe has given us is Lex.

[@kristjanrom9429]

Fuck the noise, stand your ground!

[@fabiovellozo942]

Joe Rogan and Dave Chappelle are two beasts! This cancel generation can't touch them.

[@Steve_643]

Joe’s reaction to getting canceled was to take mushrooms and workout!!! I love it F’em

[@MarkShihadeh]

Great discussion, thanks Lex. There's a lot of wisdom in Joe's take on how to deal with negativity and criticism. Especially the part whereexplains why he doesn't read the criticism, which mostly comes from a mix of biased people and people he doesn't know. Great advice for the rest of us to follow.

[@kaisoerfjord6794]

That whole censorship- and risk of being CANCELLED type problem is caused by ICANN (International Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers). ICANN administers a censorship-clause in the contract it binds the renters of subdomains to. The clause is about agreeing to not have any CONTENT that might cause anyone to have certain negative FEELINGS and that ICANN can terminate the rental contract if they do have any such CONTENT. The clause essentially forces the TENANTS (gmail, yahoo, youtube etc) to enforce subjective dictator style censorship power over all account USERS (including bloggers, podcasters etc). The subdomain TENANT pays a huge amount in annual rent, must have a large cash capital in the bank and must be a large company to even be allowed to RENT a subdomain, so rhat contract forces the TENANT to protect its investment. That is WHY the TENANT (youtube is one such TENANT) PASSES ON the censorship clause to the ACCOUNT holders (holders of email-accounts, youtube-accounts, you name it. See? This is the CORPORATION-RUN subdomain TENANCY-market. THAT is HOW free speech is eliminated. ELIMINATE ICANN and voila, problem solved. THIS (ICANN and its very existence) is the internet problem we need to address.

Comment sections can turn poisonou s in mere moments. If you don't want stress, don't read em

[@e.smiles450]

People often confuse freedom of choice with freedom from consequence. We are free to choose but we are not free from consequence. Inform yourself with consequence as best you can then choose. Attitudes, laws, societal and individual beliefs have always been transient. If your intention is to be kind, honest and helpful in your words and actions you will feel free regardless of the changes or consequences because you will be who you want to be without intentionally causing harm to others ( if this is who you choose and want to be).Take careful consideration in your words and motives and you can then really feel free to express your whole views with less fear of consequence. Take care

[@zaydiosama8397]

Joe's not lying lol. Even micro dosing .3-.5, the effects just come on so subtly, it feels like how SSRI's are suppose to work but lasting.

[@saurelius5217]

SSRIs are shit. SDRIs actually work well.

[@iamBANGMARTIN]

This hits home! Thanks for sharing this conversation! #PositiveShit

[@liamberesford3099]

Great interview

[@dvinpeace]

WOW 8 min in Joe is so awesome heartfelt and so true.... Well done my friend, well done! Inspiration!

[@hectorgascon5467]

Once upon a time, I entirely enjoyed Joe's podcast. However, due to a heavy dose of hubris and hyperbole, which crept in, understandably so (I noticed- after huge contract from Spotify). I was no longer a fan. After listening to this clip "the thinking mind" is the drunk monkey that perpetuates fear, confusion and self doubt. Amazing answer and process: " I took mushrooms" 🍄. Corporate media or any other media outlet, couldn't take Joe down. Nonetheless, Joe truly transcends/ understands his own nature,intuition and spirituality through micro dosing. Kudos to Joe, well done👏👏👏

[@orange_cat]

Even KZbin right here is cancel culture. Not as bad as Reddit, Twitter, Facebook, etc. but still.

[@NoName-rl3fh]

Facts. And anyone with a brain knows it. Yet still the left denies it. Unless they're mad. Then they try to justify it.

[@markadams8041]

So Joe Rogan had Dr Michael Osterholm on his podcast 03/20. He had another woman doctor who talked about the phillipines and how the main deaths (85per cent) were deficient in vitamin D. So in July 2020, I tested positive asymptomatic. I almost got fired from my job where I have a pension. I was able to talk to my bosses in a rational manner to keep my stupid meaningless job that I make better than medical professionals at. Joe Rogan has at least one hardcore friend here.

[@markadams8041]

So I am saying Joe Rogan, Ride or die Birch. I am a hardcore Ally. I personally will not go away.

[@alanpassmore2574]

I have only reached 1 minute and 25 seconds and had to stop the video for laughing. Much respect Mr Rogan. If all adults micro-dosed mushrooms what a different world this would be

[@Labolubu]

This is some inspiration shit, man! Love it

[@DaveSimkus]

This also applies perfectly to what media you consume in general. There is always something horrible/exciting happening somewhere but you don't need to watch it and absorb it all. Like Joe said, the human brain has evolved in small groups. Naturally, there are always consequences when we stray from what our bodies and brains have evolved for.

[@BirdDawg1]

Joe is the man. He is the voice of my generation and we are lucky to have him. Edit: Southpark was first, and Joe after. These 3 men are keeping the world sane.

I've never done shrooms but working out (be it weights, jogging, whatever) is essential for maintaining peace of mind. When more conflict or bad forces increase upon you; you have to become even more focused in your workouts and I've found getting some of that PT first thing in the morning is key.

[@edmonlessley4932]

Thanks Joe and Lex. Love you both 💓

Now that's Joe being real. Being clear, transparent with no pretense. Being human like Joe is super.
