Alex didn't know about Rogan's Fear Factor show. Rogan explained what got it cancelled in the U.S.

Man, times have changed...

Adapt, or go extinct, I guess.

Rogan is awsome, the DMT clip is hilarious, and what a great interview with Alex.

I think Alex and his family made a good call not having a TV while growing up. That is frigging gross. Belly full of donkey jizz for $50,000. No thanks.

I didn't like the interviewer, and wouldn't like to be memorialized on the internet by him.

Best line of the interview is for sure "When your life depends on it, no one wants to use hemp"

If you know much about Joe Rogan you know why this is funny. He is a huge proponent of smoking pot and the use of hemp in general.

He can be pretty out there, but for sure is an extremely intelligent person.

This interview is a strange mixing of worlds to me because Alex and Joe each represent the two major pursuits of my life. Climbing and MMA / Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (That's what my handle stands for: BJJ), each of which I have been passionately involved in for at least a decade each.

Funny sh#t. Definitely better than the average climbing interview. It's always funny hearing someone try to explain climbing, without using climbing terms to someone who hasn't the slightest clue about climbing. The climbing part of the interview was the most boring too.

Just found this on the iTunes… Posted this on the solo thread

Hey everybody,

Just saw a Joe Rogan Experience Podcast with Alex Hannold.

Just thought it should be out there for others to hear. Pretty cool to hear Rogan go on about climbing from an outsider point of view


wasn't man enough to start a new thread.

I have respect for Joe Rogan because he has the balls to take psychedelics and go in a sensory depravation tank

Classic stuff.
Honnold sure did perk up at the prospect of being set up with some porn stars!

Better than I expected.

Enjoyed listening while I worked on other stuff. (the video version)

Alex makes an excellent contemporary representative of our sport and the people in it. He's a rock-star for sure.

Alex wearing the same t-shirt as on Sunday morning at Arcadia Rock Gym where he stopped by for his morning work out. Fun to gym boulder with him.
