I have been watching this for 49 minutes and 23 seconds and I have never seen Joe Rogan be this silent before. What a phenomenal guest. A great NPC indeed.
This sucks. Yea yea yea, we are living in a computer program. Who gives AF. We need Trump on this podcast. America is crumbling and all we get is horrible comedians, some fake CIA operative that never answers a single question, 5 people that tell us that destroying innocent people in Palestine is justified, or some 40 year old virgin Dibble Dibble.
@@bigben42 yeah, prbly.madness....but maybe also the useful variety of madness.... I think Joe should start a series of "sequels"..... I would love to see Eric weinstein and Sean carrol come on JUST to "react" to Terrence Howard.....would be a 7 hour podcast
Same here, that was a wild ride. Funnily enough Terrence's point about gravity being a by-product (he contends of the electromagnetic force) has foundation, but from very different points of view: in the holographic theory proposed by Erik Verlinde, gravity is suggested to be an entropic force, a by product of the rise of entropy on the boundary of the universe. It's like a statistical side effect of whatever is happening out there on the boundary, in much the same way an elastic band attached to the inside of a closed box tends to pull back and end up in a curled up position. The PBS space-time show, episode, "what if gravity is not a fundamental force- entropic gravity" has a good if mind boggling breakdown. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qYSKEbd956M.htmlsi=BnW9uTGUI9Dyup_I
This has to be the best episode in my opinion. So many relatable stories with each going back to backing his previous statements. His view of every lesson in life is very wise. Very smart man.
@@Roger-il8iw neil is smart in making money what a sell out that guy is lmao mr science believes in the LBGTQwhatever+ ideoligy forive me for me Englisch third language
I don't think Joe Rogan gets enough credit man, he is such a great interviewer and always asks great questions or at least tries to. He does a great job at trying his hardest to understand everyone on his pod and genuinely tries to give them the time of day. Joe, you are the greatest podcaster in the world right now. Thank you
I'm dead 💀 (biologically speaking I am, in fact, alive. However, to emphasize how hilarious I found the comment just made, I made a hyperbolic statement saying that I was dead because it implies that I found the joke so funny I ceased to live. However, I am indeed alive and well so there is no need for you all to worry. I was simply employing the tactic of figurative language in order to better and more effectively communicate my message. Additionally, using slang and sayings commonly employed by the youth has made my message more understandable and reachable by the younger generation, many of whom are in this chat. For example, I could have said "that joke was a real knee slapper". This would have made sense to some of the older people in this chat as knee slapping used to be a sign of hilarity. However, in this digital age in which we now live, knee slapping is not as common and many of today's youth may not understand the reference. I therefore made my message more understandable to younger people through my use of simple, easily understood slang. I hope this clears everything up, and I appreciate any concern that I was actually dead. I can assure you I am alive and well.)
@@HeavyDuty608 the way he talks is so easy to understand he’s not being over complicated like some of the guests using crazy words he’s talking like a normal person
ah graham and flint dibble having a boxing match with virk as a ref and joe commentating would be gold. graham using the gobekli tepe suplex which was unearthed in a freak accident. dibble is dribbling theories from the 19th century as graham puts him to sleep XD
Rizwan "The simulation is just the tip of the spear" Joe "Have you seen an orangutan fishing with a spear?" Rizwan "What? No. I just meant..." Joe "Jamie, pull up the spearfishing orangutan for Rizwan, please."
1.24.49 into the video he nails it. The future is communicating with us in the past and they use our dreams to show possibilities which we then must decipher and chose from. This would explain why I dream the way I do and have my entire life. The way I talk about my dreams is, “one of me did this and then this happened” I never dream fantasies. Ever.
Somehow RU-vid accessible rogan is the best rogan. He's had some great ones again since coming back to the platform. This is peak potential rogan material
Discovering Rizwan Virk here this week has been an incredible blessing! Thank you for having him on the show! I'm a Kriyaban yogi, disciple of Paramhansa Yogananda and a PKD fan, and I have been dreaming of hearing a conversation like this that beautifully merges modern science, VR technology metaphors and the wisdom of Autobiography of a Yogi in such a profound, yet practical way that benefits our daily life. Plunging deeply into this rabbit hole!
One of the best podcasts Joe Rogan had. Joe if you reading this you need to bring this guy back in the future or even new people involved in this area, this topic is addicting.
I love reading a phrase that is said in the podcast a few seconds before or after i hear it LOL It’s happened a handful times in the of years since I’ve been watching but it’s always satisfying haha
@@jordanalexander1592 Is that your mature mentality? Someone must be a child if they dont agree with you? LMAO After a quick analysis, your account is about 8 years newer than his, so if anything youre younger or just had no idea RU-vid existed for almost a decade. Welcome. I remember my first time. Try using your words next time if you disagree with someone so you dont look like someone with sensitivity issues that cant cope with someone not feeling the exact same way about Mike Baker as you do.
@DrummerJacob What are you, an internet private investigator? Get off your computer bro. Yes, this is my second youtube acct. And the Mike Baker / conspiracy stuff is just so played out. Why don't you mature a bit and stop making assumptions based off my youtube channel? What are you, 14?
Rizwan, I wish you all the best with your health moving forward ❤🙏🏾. I'm sure these long discussions aren't easy with the level of heart complications you've had. Thank you for sharing your passion with us. Love from Canada.
Incredible interview. As a Yoga teacher, I was so excited to hear Rizwan Virk refer to Yogananada, Autobiography of a Yogi, Karma, Reincarnation and NDEs. Juxtaposing ancient wisdom with modern technology and science, made this interview riveting. Thank you JRE. More of this!
He just used the idea of a game as a metaphor cos he’s worked on video games. He even said in the episode that it’s a metaphor to explain complex topics easier.
I once had a vision that we lived in a simulated Multiverse reality that was designed to test for the best of all possible realities on the basis of free choice
Idk why Joe is so tuned out or what, but this dude is fucking fascinating to me and he's speaking my language, tell me ALL the ends and outs of the various simulation theories. Dude had a BUNCH of interesting anecdotes, stories, and ways of framing the problem, I liked it a lot.
I have to say this was for sure one of my favorite episodes ever. It literally has every single subject I’m interested in in one podcast! This guy is absolutely amazing and fascinating to listen to. I feel like I need a part 2 already. 🙌 🔥
Damn, out of nowhere this one easily falls in my top 10 JRE episodes. This was interesting the whole time. Whether you subscribe to any of this shit or not, its hard to stop listening.
We are all living in a simulation Where you’re born, is not chosen. Your physical features, we’re not chosen. The generation you’re born into, was not chosen. Your genetic predispositions, were not chosen. Your parents, were not chosen. The culture you’re born into, was not chosen. Your name, was not chosen. Your economic background, is not chosen. Your childhood experiences, were not chosen. Are you really doing anything other than following incentives and carrying out your culture? Yet all these variables determine exactly what & who you are. Knowledge of this doesn’t change anything, you must run the simulation until the very end as it’s meant to play out
Most people this smart don't have the skillset required to convey such ideas to the public, and make it interesting as well. This guy's incredible at explaining such complex ideas, and is one of the the best guests Joe has ever had. And the simulation theory being real or not has no bearing on how great this episide is
🤣 I got the exact opposite take on this. while he got great analogies he jumps from one to another before actually explaining things. dude's just throwing around buzzwords and quotes while plugging his books. remember top G andrew tate? this is the "scientific" simtheroy version of that marketing. then again I'm biased as a game dev who learned this shit in 12th grade physics & philosophy.
It could be random like chat gpt makes images, some alien could have put a prompt into their simulation creator gpt and the supercomputer created our fucked up world
It was painful to watch him try to explain the quantum slit experiment, circling the point with silly analogies about schroedingers cat and then quantum computing without actually talking about how light is both a particle and a wave depending on measurement, the whole basis for the experiment and what he was talking about.
Yeah that was my problem too, he's not a qualified scientist from what I can tell. Not that that is necessarily an issue, but it can be with regard to the point he was trying to make (his analogy of light splitting in two a million light years away not being 'decided' until it is observed).
I came into this podcast not ever listening to Rizwan Virk, so I was skeptical. Now, I ve just sat through the entirety of one of the best, most enjoyable, Joe Rogan Experiences ever! You are the man, Riz. Thank you.
why make the same comment as someone else lol? coincidence? or are you a copy of another version of the other guy who made the same comment? wait who made it first? are there two of you? is this a simulation?
A chess player can burn 6000 calories a day in a chess tournament. So if the dude is thinking really hard he might be using a lot of energy. That or he has a carb based diet and gets hungry often.
My Mother asks Questions she already knows the Answers to. I don't see the difficulty in writing your own exam. If you think this is Legendary, you have never done anything difficult in your life. Ever.
Dude....taking a snack break on the world's top podcast is gangster.....its like when Spiccoli orders the pizza to be delivered to class..... (that reference may be before your generation)
@Kal-El207 Not knowing what the guest is talking about because it's above his level is a fair assumption here, and Joe did what most good hosts would do when you don't know the subject matter. Stay quiet and not interject with something silly.
Love Rizwan, thank you for being so transparent in sharing your personal journey and relationship it has in this simulated world. :-) All the love and support looking forward to reading your book.
Man, these episodes lately have just been 🔥🔥🔥... very mind opening & makes u really think whats TRULY happening in this reality or simulation. Crazy to be a human. I love it.
I Swear it was Bernstein Bears as well i use to have all the books, dug them out of my parents attic and it is changed, makes your mind go crazy and the sinbad genie movie i know i seen it back in the day we use to laugh cause kazam with shaq came out after and we would call it the knock off version. Makes you wonder what causes this but that rabbit hole is too deep!
