    I think interviews like this are the biggest reason Joe has become such a mega name. He finds incredibly interesting people, well known or not, and has the ability to speak with them in a way that gives the audience a pretty solid insight to their disposition. I had heard of Jason before and thought his story would be interesting to learn about, but never made the effort to do so. Thanks Joe for introducing us to yet another fascinating person.

    Jason actually paid the full fee for the production of the first Nirvana album Bleach. Only $606.17 dollars at the time. He was credited on the album, but didn't play on it. They also put him on the front cover. He played a huge role in Nirvana history . Also, think of how many Bleach albums were sold after Nevermind came out. Hope he gets paid his dues !!

    Jason truly has had a one of a kind life and is a certified badass. As a massive fan of Soundgarden and Nirvana I’d love to hear more detail about his time in the bands, but from this clip it seems like he isn’t ready to go too far into that, maybe due to some unresolved feelings and resentment. Hopefully someday he will be ready to share his stories and bless the fans!

    I remember seeing him with SG at Tipitina's for their first show there. He came out - hit his low string and caused a minor earthquake. I could not believe how loud and thunderous his bass was. Loved it. What a show. There were only 50 or so people there. They played Beyond the Wheel in almost total darkness - a blacklight lit behind Matt - and I thought I was witnessing witchcraft or the devil on earth. Killer stuff.

      Archer, Rangers are hardcore dudes, but I’ve always felt that SF is where it’s at because those are the guys who have to be very smart besides being tough. A big part of SF training focuses on language and cultural training because SF are usually the guys making first contact with potential allies on the ground. Plenty of SF guys can do what Rangers do, but I doubt that too many Rangers can do what SF does.

      The term 'Ivy League' was coined in 1937, by sports writer Caswell Adams in an article published in the New York Herald. Adams used the term as a reference to the powerful eastern football league, which was assembled by eight universities: Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Penn, Dartmouth, Cornell, Columbia and Brown.

We would jump from the top of Hemlock trees, and ride the limbs down as they bent, but don't break, amazing wood fiber. Lots of Western Washington was near rain forest, little rain micro climates, getting like 80 or 90 inches of rain annually, well away from the real Olympic Rain Forest. When I was 4 or 5, I'd be climbing big maple trees, just hanging onto thick moss, and digging my feet in. These were monster trees, the first limbs being like 30 feet up.

      And to be fair. You call music trivial? Yet many times that music has MASSIVE impacts felt by millions and saves lives and changes them around or helps with mental strife and struggle. So if that to you is trivial I feel sorry cause it's far from it. It's just like the people who say "it's just a game" when talking about sports. Never considering how many children are saved or avoid horrible life paths or learn amazing traits because of sports. Like self accountability, structure, critical thinking, how to live for something more important then one's self and being apart of a group/community which vastly has a positive impact.
      And they don't even cover how sports bring together entire communities regardless of differences, races, politics and all that and has everyone rooting for one cause which helps keep communities doing well.

    I was recently reading a Chris Cornell biography, and Jason was mentioned in a few pages. He was considered too quiet for the band to handle that it annoyed the rest of the band. The same problem he had in Nirvana. They felt as though he was too distant and lacked a sense of humor. But all that time, he knew that he didn't want to be in a rock n roll band whatsoever. Had different dreams than the rest of the band members. Side note: He payed for the whole Bleach album session and was never reimbursed. Didn't even ask for his money back. Tells you a lot about what a good soul he has.
    Edit: I know everyone is going by quotes here and there, trust me I get it, but I just came back from reading Chris Cornell's biography this past January for the first time, I knew very little about Jason and the details as to why he was fired and these sources that I got my from information, came from the members of those bands and the people who were actually there. This is still freshly new information that a year ago I never knew before. After reading the biography and then seeing Jason on the Joe Rogan podcast, it's clearly obvious that he is a very shy and quiet dude. I'm an introvert myself so I can pick up the vibe he presents. Trust me read the book .. or don't. Lol.

      Doesn't sound accurate to me. I highly doubt the guys in Soundgarden would fire someone because they were an introvert.

He obviously wanted to play in Soundgarden and would have stayed with the band if he had not been fired. Either way, he seems like a good dude.

    I can relate to the getting kicked out of the house and told to go play outside then returning later all beat up and covered in dirt because I was "mountain climbing" or "rock climbing" but what I was actually doing was imagining situations and playing in the woods.... I actually had a small base w/ food and stuff on the side of an old cliff trail by the age of 12 and I was just wiring sticks together and making mud blocks I would anchor the sticks into and stuff. No idea what I was doing but I did it for years to where I had a bunch of hideouts all over the mountains around my little town.... I wouldn't change anything about how I was raised because it made me be very independent and self reliant at a young age.

    Jason meant a lot to early days Nirvana. Payed for the recording of Bleach and so on. Thanks for that! Seems like a decent guy with a interesting life. Be really cool to have a beer with him.

    Jason paid for Nirvana's bleach recording sessions. He risked his life working in treacherous conditions as a deep sea fisherman and saved his money. At the time in Nirvana, he was the only one who had money so he had to pay for the recording of bleach at Endino's Reciprocal Studios. His contribution to music is legend. Kurt Cobain was a complex person so it must have been hard to tolerate, relate to, socialise, work and perform with him.

    It’s kind of funny hearing Jason talk about how Kurt didn’t want to hear other people’s input on the songs. Dave Grohl talks about how he was intimidated to bring the music he eventually released with the Foo Fighters to Kurt in his book. It’s cool to hear more context to that.
