The Joe Rogan Experience
2
Television at least the television I grew up with was all
3
about like the familiarity of returning to the characters you love Yeah,
4
but there was plenty of characters Yeah
5
And you did get to return to the ones
6
that stuck around didn't get their heads locked I just wish they killed other characters No,
7
no, no, no, no, no,
8
no, I love that Let me give you another example of my
9
Everyone talks about how great television is now and it's pretty good.
10
I gotta say
11
it's pretty good but it's still television to me
12
and what's the difference between what's the difference between television
13
and a good movie
14
because a lot of the TV now it has the patina
15
of a movie mm-hmm all right it they're using cinematic language all right to get you caught up in it and I
16
know and obviously I'm talking about good shows for time it shows
17
that your Ozark shows that you're compelled to watch right all right um and So okay, so okay.
18
I'll use an example of a show.
19
I'll use a
20
Yellowstone I didn't really get around to watching Yellowstone the first three years
21
or so and then then I watched like the first season Like wow,
22
this is fucking great.
23
I'm always been a big Kevin Costner fan He's not going wonderful in this all right
24
And I got really caught up in the show and everything
25
and all of a sudden I'm having a good time and you know I've got a couple seasons.
26
I haven't seen so I'm watching it and and
27
and in the first season I'm kind of talking about this
28
is like a movie this is like a big movie it's like a big movie
29
and the guy the guy who writes says it's a good writer there's good like punchy monologues
30
and stuff so then I end up watching like three seasons of it
31
and then I even watched
32
that by 1883 was oh this is a good Western show I like Western
33
but then after I've watched like two or three seasons
34
or one season of 1883 look why I'm watching it I am compelled I'm caught up in it
35
but at the end of the day it's all just a
36
soap opera they've introduced you to a bunch of characters you
37
actually kind of know all their backstories you know everybody's connection with everybody else
38
and you know they spend some time selling that out
39
and then everything else then everything is just the compellingness of the soap opera What's happening to this character?
40
What's different between that and a film?
41
Well, I'll tell you I'll tell you because the thing is if
42
You watch if you watch Edge of Night
43
Monday through Friday you get caught up in the dramas of the family
44
and everything right
45
But you don't remember it five years from now you're caught up into the minutia of it at the moment All right,
46
so the difference between is is I'll see a good Western movie
47
and I'll remember it for the rest of my life I'll remember the story.
48
I'll remember this scene or that scene and it built it built to an emotional climax of some degree
49
And you know one the story is good.
50
It's not just about the interpersonal relationships The story is good itself,
51
but but but there's a payoff to it,
52
but there's not a payoff on this stuff It's just more inter-interconnectional drama and while I'm watching it,
53
that's good enough.
54
But when it's over, I couldn't tell you,
55
I can remember who the bad guy was in the first season of Yellowstone because it was Danny Houston.
56
I remember him in it,
57
but I don't remember any of the
58
The details of it and I don't remember any of the bad guys for season two or season three.
59
It's out of my head.
60
It's just completely out of it.
61
And same thing with 1883,
62
when I watched the whole thing and that was like a That seemed like a movie except I don't remember
63
Sam Elliott's about the only thing I really remember it of it when it was finished,
64
but now a Red River I remember for the rest of my life isn't
65
that though because it's a different thing Right because
66
when you go to a film film is is designed for
67
one sitting you sit down in the theater You're gonna get the entire encapsulation what happens to these characters
68
and okay I'll give you an example of one
69
that is more than a soap opera and you'll and and here's the difference Here's the difference.
70
Okay, yeah, you could say that Look they're in the soap opera business,
71
but I'll tell you one that's not okay if you watch that first season of
72
Here's one that really works like a movie if you watch the first season of Homeland.
73
Oh, yeah That first season of Homeland.
74
First season is incredible.
75
Okay.
76
Yeah, very good when it gets to that final
77
episode of the first season and he's got the suicide vest on and he's in the room
78
He can kill the guys that he's been waiting for to do it for the whole movie.
79
And you don't want him to die,
80
but you're kind of into him and you kind of want him to pull it off.
81
And then his daughter calls him on the phone before he does it.
82
She doesn't know what he's gonna do,
83
but she gets that little sense from him that something's weird.
84
Daddy, you need to tell me that you're gonna come home right now.
85
You need to tell me right now that I will see you later tonight.
86
And the entire series has been built to this scene.
87
And it's one of the most emotional scenes I've ever seen in a movie,
88
in a TV show, I've ever seen Dramatized.
89
The first season was great.
90
I've ever seen Dramatized.
91
Now that was a movie.
92
That was not a soap opera.
93
That built to this moment of him being in that fucking room with the suicide vest on.
94
And there was complexity.
95
She doesn't know what she's asking.
96
But we do.
97
Right.
98
She's stopping this major thing and she'll never know that.
99
But we do.
100
Right, right, right.
101
And he's still committed.
102
That's...
103
But he's more committed to her.
104
And we know that.
105
Mmm.
106
That's just great shit.
107
That's a movie.
108
Right.
109
And you can't...
110
Can you do that every week?
111
No, I didn't say you can do it every week, but I'm saying...
112
I mean, you know what I'm saying...
113
When the season's over, I need to walk away with more than just the soap opera.
114
An impactful moment exactly.
115
I don't expect you to do that every week,
116
but at the end of the arc
117
If you're telling a continuing story right at the end of that fucking season you need to bam drop the mic Yeah,
118
you need to tell me a fucking story not just dot dot dot dot dot Seriously and look while I'm watching it.
119
I'm not asking for that
120
But the fact that it all just goes away years right once it's over and it's just stand on the beach Right.
121
It's a different thing though, right?
122
I mean, this is what the weirdness- Well,
123
well, well, here's where it's not a different thing.
124
Okay, here's where it's not a different thing.
125
Part of the thing that makes it different is the fact that everyone's watching these continuing stories.
126
Continuing stories, continuing stories.
127
Okay, if it were Bonanza,
128
where it's just a set-up story,
129
Charles Bronson shows up, he's a half-breed Indian
130
and he's working at the Ponderosa for a while
131
And he gets involved in an adventure and then at the end it's it's it's done
132
Well on that show you you have the the episodes are maybe not so good or the episodes are there are
133
Whatever they're treading water on continual story thing
134
But then you'll have this great episode with Charles Bronson or do they have a great episode which with James Well,
135
they're almost standalones.
136
That could have been a movie.
137
Yeah.
138
They could have expanded that to a movie.
139
Right.
140
They're standalones instead of just a long, ongoing story.
141
Well, the difference is that that's episodic.
142
It's a long, ongoing story that leads to the soap opera aspect.
143
Well, it's episodic, and television now has become completely serialized.
144
Yeah, yeah.
145
And so, you know, somebody's going in and they're pitching their show,
146
even a really, really good show like Deadwood.
147
Okay, Deadwood, I know what they probably went in they pitched
148
and what they knew that they were gonna make was the was it Wild Bill?
149
The Wild Bill story and they've got Carradine and like and they know that story and that show is
150
Fantastic as long as they're telling that story which is like six to eight episodes Once he's gone.
151
I don't think they had a plan
152
They that was what they pitched
153
and it was like they pitched a movie spread out over a number of episodes
154
But it wasn't even the full season yeah,
155
but by that point in time they have now they have all the cat town character Well,
156
they've got everybody but but I would maintain
157
that for the rest of Deadwood after Carradine's gone It's just things are happening stuff is happening
158
But I don't remember anything about that show other than the town
159
and you know the the various actors that I liked
160
and on the show and
161
But really all they had was those first six to eight episodes I can't remember what exactly what it was
162
and the thing that and the thing about it is I'm not,
163
I don't say all this and the sum up of it all is it's useless.
164
It is very compelling while I'm watching it.
165
But it just doesn't compare to a movie real story that stays with me for the rest of my life.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
