That random cut to Joe Rogan losing his mind killed me 😂😂😂😂😂

Civil engineer: (studies 8 years) Some moss: *Hold my oats.*

That whole time Joe's thinking "I've got a freezer full of elk, I'll give him some"

"Do it because I told you to." "Yes, moss."

Joe: "Imagine if we smoke it"

Japanese engineers: "But there's a mountain there, we can't build." Japanese leader: "The moss says it's better, so do it."

"But sir, this is an orphanage, we cant build here" "DESTROY IT, the moss said so!"

Slime mould has one job, efficiently retrieve nutrients, it proceeds to take the best shape for that, instinct is a beautiful thing.

You already know he’s been waiting his whole life to say the “tip of the proverbial Mycelial iceberg”

This reminds me of how once a college decided to just remove their walkways for a year because students kept walking on the grass and killing it and they did this so that at the end of the year they would find the dead grass paths and pave them because they were naturally the fastest paths to places of interest

i like how joe always does this same "woah!" reaction when he doesn't know wtf the guest is talking about

scientist: "but sir there's a mountain there we can't buil-" boss: "SILENCE. THE MOSS HAS SPOKEN"

Joe Rogan's reaction is when you tell a kid that there are numbers lower than zero XD

"Does the fungus smoke DMT?" - Joe Rogan

I swear you could sneeze and fart at the same time and Joe would still loose his mind

Literally the plot to Mario Bros from 30 years ago. Touché Japan, touché!

It's not intelligence, it's efficiency. It's the path of least resistance to the greatest reward. It didn't think about it, the cells with the most nutrients grew faster and received the focus...

“The slime can find itself through a maze” *fills the entire maze to find it’s way out*

The random scientist saying "what would happen if we put this on a dead brain" hypothetically

The way he said "Japanese ugh are so clever about this" was just to funny

"That fungus must've been on Alpha Brain!" -Joe Rogan on Tiktok

"this is the tip of the pyhsusgajsvdhsjnebdkxns Iceberg" I agree

Joe: Woah That's Crazy... Can You Imagine If We Gave The Moss DMT?

Joes reaction is what I had except in my mind

“what if we somehow give them DMT”-Joe

“That’s crazy but can we smoke them” - Joe Rogan

JR literally holding his skull together, to keep his mind from exploding.

He's right fungus is smarter than he is.

Humans: *devolved a complex technological miracle of a railway system efficiently* Some moss: "give me a piece of oats, I'll do you one better"

"you are gonna trust that fungus over me?" -that engineer. Edit: thank you guys so much for the likes, my First time crossing 5k.

I love joes reaction like he actually understood what was said xD

Essentially, slime mold is the aliens people keep searching for.

Guest: “So the fungus organized themselves-“ Joe: *backflips in Bulgarian*

Old guy: tells his story Joe rogan: freaking out because he's high "WOOOOOOOOW"

I love the way how Joe did that with his big head.

Imagine being a top-shelf architect and being outclassed by a fungus

This doesn’t prove fungus is smarter it just shows fungus understands how to find a path of least resistance

"So anyway, you ever do DMT?" -Joe probably immediately after

Joe's DMT hit at EXACTLY the wrong time for him to be able to handle this conversation 🤯🤣

This is just insane. That slime essentially reprogrammed itself to be more efficient. Wild

"Does the fungus make you feel more aggressive?" -Joe

"Have they tried giving it DMT?"

This reminds me of the magic conch shell in sponge bob. Japanese engineer: we finish the subway system oh fungi what will we do next? Fungi: nothing Japanese engineer: the fungi has spoken.

"Okay but did you know there's a million particles in a fart?" - Kneel nDaGrass Tieson

All these years people been calling me slime. I didn't realize they were pointing out my brilliance

"Now I may not be a smart man, but I know when somethings fucked up" - Forest Gump

"Path of least resistance" is a concept more fundamental to nature than Einstein's equations.

I watched this episode on shrooms. Makes it more compelling

Here's the thing, when they built their subway system they took into account population and traveled areas as well as where they could build entrances based off of buildings and streets that are already there, they couldn't just build wherever they wanted to, they had to take into account already existing structures, the fungus just took the shortest routes, so to say it was more efficient might be technically true but even if Japan knew a more efficient way they couldn't have build it that way without destroying roads, houses, buildings, etc. So its not as impressive as you might think, the fungus is not "smart," a lot of animals do things that can be impressive but that doesn't mean they have a super high IQ or anything like that. Just food for thought.

‘That time I got reincarnated as a slime mold’

This is a good interview if you haven’t watched. Paul Stamats took about 16grams of magic mushrooms for his first trip and cured his stuttering and talked to his crush that next day.

Consciousness is everywhere in many forms

"your design sucks ass here's a better one" - some fungus

"have they ever tried that experiment on DMT?" - probably joe rogan

When it cuts to Joe and he looks like he got too high 😂

I'm a mycophile, lol. I totally want to find one of those mushies to make my own hat like his. He's such a hero in so many ways that not many know. Look up Paul Stamets videos.

“This is the tip of the proverbial mycelium iceberg, you know.” I know big words too… livingroom

"That shits f*cked" - Sun Tzu

This music amazingly makes any topic sounds more mindboggling.

“That time in I woke up in a fantasy world and a slime outsmarted me.”

Joe Rogan's reaction to things is a big part of his appeal I think. Cracks me up every time. 😂

"What if we provide DMT instead of oats?"

Forget the terminator, the future is fungi

That is the most amazing thing I have heard in a while!

Efficiency isn't inherently smart, it's a survival mechanism, the least energy you use the longer you will conserve that energy meaning less food needed. Also this conclusion ignores how infrastructure is designed, infrastructure isn't usually moving from point A to point B either because of multifunctional design like a train line going to different end locations and even stopping along the way. This also ignores that train lines are built around pre-existing infrastructure like buildings and if it is underground around basements, water and power lines, and different materials like hard rock or soft soil that might cause cave ins later. And lastly it also ignores how infrastructure is made, it's accumulative, you add on to roads and railways to create paths to different locations, you don't build it over night across flat land.

Yes, a fungus can "organize" a subway system without having to take into account any geological or man-made obstacles that occur. It's easy to make paths more efficient if you don't have to work around varying soils, rock outcrops, existing infrastructure, and other issues that come up when tunneling through hundreds of miles.

Joe: Well that’s easy it took 28mins for the DMT too kick in!…proceeds too grab head (right on time) 🎊

Fungus evolved after animals who came after plants. Their potential is immense.

"That's cool, but have you heard about lion killing chimps? Bro. They can slap. your. face. off. Rip a lion in half. Pull that shit up Jamie" --Joe Rogan, probably

Joe be doing all these podcast just to get his mind blown time and time again 🤣

Engineers defeated by fungus 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Oh they’re smarter than humans, right? Then where the hell are they when it comes to helping us go to Mars? Nowhere to be seen

Wow, that fungus certainly did design a better network for transportation of nutrients.... if you ignore geography, demographics, history, logistics, and politics of the area.

“Trust the fungus.” -Super Mario Bros

Joe looks like he's been worried this day would come lol

Bruh how can you say that the mushrooms are smarter than us when WE'RE the ones who figured out we could use mushrooms to do this in the first place.

"You aren't you when you're hungry"

*Joe finishes a hit of DMT*

Slime Molds are very interesting! I did a science fair project on Slime Mold. It was so awesome!

Joe had one to many blunts before that conversation

nobody: joe: *fuckin floats into another dimension* “woah”

"Smarter" like bro it can't even tie its own shoe laces

Innate intelligence is the result of divine design.

Joe be thinking imagine what would happen if we supply them DMT.

The Japanese when I use the Minimum Spanning Tree algorithm to make the most efficient subway system in under a second instead of 30 hours.

The best part was when Joe went “Woah” meaning “What the hell were those big words?” but the audience thought he was reacting to the info.

This guy is the reason I refuse to eat button or portobello mushrooms lol

When your guest is way to smart to be on your show

"The tip of the proverbial myceliul iceberg" wow..

“that’s crazy, but how crazy would it be if the mushrooms smoked DMT?”

Joe was like "JESUS FUCKIN SCIIIIIIENCE"

"There's a slime mold" Squidward

Joe when he leans back in amazement is one of the funniest reactions to new information I've ever seen 🤣

" Primordial sepaleftheium", ayo I got some of that in my back yard

"Sniper is a job but fungus its mental sickness!"

Paul must've brought Joe some of his boomers for this interview 😂

Joe: "I wonder if its ancestors smoked DMT" Also Joe: "Can we smoke it to gain its intelligence and enlightenment?"

"So do you think the slime was on DMT" - Joe Rogan

engineer: The slime mold has spoken

This is one of the most adorable things I have ever heard.
