Key Quotes

Here are 5 quotes extracted from the Joe Rogan podcast transcript:

1. "People who like my humor don't necessarily like my personal life, and people who like my personal life don't necessarily like my humor. It's a weird I guess if if nobody feels like you're 100% in in with them, they they don't know what to make of you." This quote reflects the challenge of having a diverse audience with potentially conflicting values or expectations.

2. "There's a weird thing and maybe this is again because I'm in my 50s and I remember like thinking the news was real and accurate because you remember Walter Kronhite and all that [ __ ] and it's I it's this constant sense of disappointment like [ __ ] like they're really not what I like I'm still an idiot who believes in like the adults and they're going to do the right thing. Yeah. And it just constantly is a confirmation that Yeah. They are they're liars. They're [ __ ] biased liars. Yeah. And they're paid to lie. They're just propagandists." This reveals disillusionment with mainstream news and a shift towards independent sources.

3. "You got to let it go. But when when I I mean the most frustrating thing was seeing it on CNN. I was like, "Okay, you so this thing that I thought was the news forever now I know you're not accurate at all because you're you're attacking me and you're painting me in this very bizarre light because it's convenient for you."" This expresses frustration with perceived biased media coverage and a loss of trust in traditional news sources.

4. "They always did it to Kerattop even though he's actually funny. He's a funny comic. It's a funny show. I've been to a show in Vegas. It's [ __ ] great. And he's a really nice guy. He's not a mean guy. It's doesn't deserve anyone's hate. He's a sweetheart." This illustrates the dynamics of competition and jealousy within the comedy community, where success can sometimes breed resentment and unwarranted criticism.

5. "I think that's what aidophobia and arachnophobia comes from. You know, I I bet someone in your DNA, someone down the line was either killed by a spider or like really badly hurt by a spider and it's just in your DNA to be absolutely terrified when you see a spider." Norton offers a somewhat humorous, somewhat serious theory on the cause of the common phobias of snakes and spiders.
