The fakeness of the scene sent Rogan is a laughing streak. “Now he’s going to throw rocks at him. Yeah, you’ve got to hit him in the ear, bro. Get close. The guy’s slow as fuck. Look at him. This is so dumb. This is so dumb. This is so dumb. It hurts my feelings”

He further added “You don’t have a better, you have weapon. Well, first of all, they didn’t even have the fu**ing internet. It’s the dumbest show ever, and they had walkie-talkies. They hadn’t even figured out phones. Like Kirk out, click. But yet, they could beam you up. They literally take your body, and it’s still a good show.”
