The Joe Rogan Experience when I was on the Xanax it was basically during the pandemic I had ten thousand of those things at the house ten thousand because he was sending me 90 a month from 2012. on automatic monthly they were just going in the closet they were just going in the [ __ ] when did you take it 2012 was what I got it prescribed when I had my little situation at The Comedy Store that we goofed about that was none of that's not that was not good there's no way I should be understanding walking 10 count that's what that was that night when I had to follow Morgan Murphy a standing walking 10 count dog I want to I asked Paulie Shaw I told you the story and we laughed about it but dog now thinking about it I should have done something I went to The Comedy Store I'm in the back you weren't there I think you had you were coming in late yes you were coming in later because on Saturdays I used to do the close the original room uh-huh talking bullshitting with Paulie everybody's in the back no refill maybe a joint before I got there you know Saturday night just let the girls I get there they say Joey you're up next I walked to the thing and as I'm walking I walk up the steps to the original room and Morgan's on stage and Paulie's standing there laughing at her and I walk up and I'm like damn I don't [ __ ] feel good like this is not working I was starting to get anxiety I couldn't breathe I couldn't breathe but I went to look at that window for years whenever I had anxiety in the original room I had a window when I'm on stage I got a window on the right remember yeah and we can look out the sunset yeah I was always good that day particularly when I went in there I didn't see a [ __ ] window so I was waiting for Morgan to get off and also I got this anxiety Joy I couldn't breathe I couldn't [ __ ] breathe so I walked down the stairs just to look at the door to get and it got worse it got worse I couldn't breathe I thought it was gonna [ __ ] have a heart attack and I go poorly I can't get on stage I'm having a horrible anxiety attack he goes I just went up dude and I walked up there and I told you but I didn't explain it to you correctly or because I was cracking a joke I woke up at the 12 minute Mark hmm I remember walking past Paulie and that's it Joe that's it and then I remember waking up on stage and people laughing and I was probably an automatic pilot wow I had a bit that it was on automatic pilot it was a little scary when you got on Xanax no it was a couple weeks I went to the doctor and he goes what was that I kept having these little panic attacks kept having these little panic attacks little panic attacks but I was okay I wasn't going to go to a psychiatrist we were working our asses off we didn't know what the [ __ ] was going on so I started taking the Xanax and it would help it a little bit I would take it on the road if I went on a plane or something like that what does it do for you you got to remember too it was you were walking contradiction I'm talking about myself because you said it best I'm eating 2 000 milligrams of THC and scaring the [ __ ] out of myself right you're walking around [ __ ] scaring then the Xanax I would take the Xanax to calm me down off the anxiety come on man that's not gonna work those edible weed sessions when you do too many of them I do think they make people very anxious I think they just I think they did the [ __ ] the pole of your brain you know I brought some water but now I eat them more to sleep I got them on a my big problem Joe is still to this day asleep so now two nights three nights a week I drink a bodybuilder uh sleeping thing what do you do you have a hard time sleeping because you're not tired do you have a hard time sleeping because you're thinking I'm dying till 9 30. and I look come on man the comedy timing I don't want to go to bed at 9 30.
yeah you know what I'm saying I never want to go to bed at eight o'clock that's when you know you're almost done yeah I want a ballet [ __ ] you man yeah I'm not looking for stay up till four but I'm not going to bed at 9 30. so I'm tired about nine but I push the envelope a little bit I had to read maybe listen to music 11 11 30. I'm like you I like to read [ __ ] on the computer 11 11 I try to read at night I turn the TV off once I go up there bro I'm thinking about the guy who came to my house who asked me if he could take an orange but it's like three instead he took nine he took nine instead yeah and you're like that was 11 years ago Joey I think about the time I bombed in the original room following Dom my Herrera like does it matter I think about the time I ate a bucket of dicks in North Carolina in Chapel Hill doesn't matter does it really matter that you ate a bag of dicks you know I I think it's stupid [ __ ] yeah and I fall asleep eventually I'll tell you what helped whoop I got the whoop watch to help me with recovery because I was lifting and going to jiu jitsu and my back would hurt so I wanna I wanna figure out what kind of calories I could do and I won't go over those if I could do those five days a week that's fine but I can't go in there burn 800 [ __ ] calories in Jiu Jitsu and expect the deadlift the next day I don't have that so I got the whoop watch the whoop watch put me on to sleep it's helped me sleep better because I finally realized go you slept four hours last night no wonder you feel like [ __ ] right so now I'm in contest with whoops so I got it up from four and a half hours of sleep to eight hours pretty much last night I only slept like five because of the flight but I'm sleeping eight hours now that's great yeah now I'm sleeping 11 30 to 8.
