The life story of Robert Downey Jr. is truly inspiring and teaches you that you can only be your own savior.

[@CeresOutpost]

RDJ has had one hell of a journey man. I've been a fan of his since watching Weird Science and Less Than Zero as a teen back in the 80's. Watching him rebuild and reinvent himself over the decades has always been inspiring for me and that's completely aside from enjoying his works. I even spent a few years practicing Wing Chun, like RDJ, as a way to help heal myself of depression and anxiety. I'm not really a "fan" of many people, but he's firmly on the very short list.

Imagine the feeling of accomplishment when you hear RDJ finds it unreal to have a talk with you.

[@TheSilentHeel]

LOL right?!

[@ShashankSawantPhD]

@Schweddy Ballz I am somehow inclined to agree with both of you. What Michael is saying is how the world is and most people will immediately get what he means and that it is true. Yet what you say I also agree with, as that's how the world should be. That it shouldn't matter who you are and how much you have accomplished, when two are having a conversation.

[@robertconover7178]

Schweddy Ballz The way you talk is sad and depressing, you must be projecting.

[@xxdemisucksxx]

No. Eddie Hall is a human and I am amazed by him. Some people see that with RDJ. People all over the world are aware of his existence. And decades from now will still know who he was. It's not his species you should consider but his experience knowledge and achievements. Learning from others is human, so is conversing, and holding people who have done more in higher regard, or elders. These are human traits. Being human is being in awe, motivated and inspired by the progress of other humans, especially if they've done more than you.

[@chiafairy7091]

@@ShashankSawantPhD I partly agree but partly disagree because it's a difference saying "I feel unreal and accomplished because this big famous person said this." to "this human who has inspired me a lot in my life, who's work I admire and love has said this, so i feel very happy and accomplished." i think there is a great difference in the two and I would say it is perfectly fine to feel the way of the second sentence, because it is good to look up to people and appreciate them for what they have to say and what work they put out into the world, and it doesn't have to mean the other person is worth less, or more.

[@cityhawk]

I know it’s a controversial stance, but it’s clear time has past Dave. He was incredibly funny and brilliant on Chapelle’s Show, but it seems as if the time off made him rusty. A comedian needs to have the stage to stay in that sharp comedic shape like an athlete. I think he’s a shell of his former self. Him and Brennan were a great writing time, and worked well off of each other. Maybe with more time Dave regains his sharpness, but he is, at times, unrecognizable. If I get tattooed for saying this, so be it, it’s just my opinion.

[@quantumpotential7639]

It's a ryhthmn .. like a sine wave. It helps to know when the sine wave is above the line, when you're above it, and when you drop below it. Always catch it on the up swing, and take a soft landing when coming out and drop below the line, preparing to be ready and to hit your stride again when you rise above it again. Maybe it's a daily ebb and flow, or every three days, or every 8th day. Take notes and over time you will detect a pattern. Good luck

It’s like you can feel the energy of whatever force in the universe puts the magic of creation into the physical world through inspiration. The same feeling a fighter feels when in a flow state, expressing themselves through movement, hitting and not getting hit with ease, is not dissimilar to how a guitarist feels shredding into a solo, in absolute flow state.

Thanks for sharing. I loved this interview series. I have always admired your growth in your field and Mr. Downey's growth and change.

[@caliv0608]

I don't know RDJ and will never know RDJ, but I am still so proud of him. I've watched his movies for so many years and to see him now happy, successful, wise from his experiences is so beautiful.

[@adamrauscher4755]

I needed this video 2 weeks ago. I'm a full time artist and I not only got in my own way but began hating myself for it thus halting creating anything. Luckily the tides changed and I feel like I'm on to a new chapter in life. But thanks for this Joe and RDJ

This entire conersation is a perfect breakdown on trying to control, or at least rope in, ones own self image and standards, lol (introspectively) You even offer something akin to an outline for organizing (or balancing perhaps??) the extremes of what is and isn't, what should and shouldn't, from conception to implementation. ....I've spent the 2019/2020 transition trying to determine if my past 10 years have either been following a tangent of my own ramblings, or if I've been surrounding myself with the wrong people and environments. GREAT EPISODE!!! Thanks so much. 👍👍👍👍👍

[@richardpichan6916]

@@LimoneneDaddy....Thank you. I watch tons of Mr. Rogans' videos and I love the perspectives they offer, this one really struck me. Pulled in by the topic and struck primarily by the natural progression of the conversation.... Mr. Rogan seems to have a talent for that. Always kinda makes me feel like I'm sitting right in the studio.

Slowsti05 He’s right tho, its quite rare in general to see Robert Downey and not Tony Stark in an interview. When he finally puts down the facade, he is completely different from the made up character and instead feels like a real person
