The following is a conversation with Joe Rogan that we recorded after my recent appearance on his podcast, the Joe Rogan Experience. Joe has been an inspiration to me and I think to millions of people for just being somebody who puts love out there in the world and being genuinely curious about wild ideas, from chimps and psychedelics to quantum mechanics and artificial intelligence. Like many of you, I've been a fan of his podcast for over a decade and now somehow miraculously, am humbled to be able to call him a friend.

I usually do full ad reads here and never ads in the middle, but this time I just go straight to the conversation with a bit of guitar first. Do you ponder your mortality? Are you afraid of death?
