Lex brother the anaconda story you heard at the beginning was a fatttttttt lie. Look it up, anacondas dont get that long, they get heavy. Reticulated python will be the one they find thats “25” feet
@AndreCorbeil They defend their land possibly because they were victimized so a few could get rich? Interesting you use the word "tricked" as if the interview was trying to do harm in a dishonest manner... confusing if that was your implication.
I'm 1 hour in and I gotta say that this is easily my favorite guest you've had on by far. This man needs to be protected at all costs. What a gem to humanity.
Trying to grab an anaconda (weighing 200-400 pounds or more) is officially the dumbest of dumb-dude moves! Do you grab tigers by the tail, tweek elephants on the trunk & punch rinos in the mouth too? I'm actually surprised you admitted to these activities. You only survived by pure dumb luck! These over-glorified, tall tales encourage other young, dumb-dudes, which you know is dangerously dumb, but it sells books, right? Your Amazon tales are irresponsible especially to those who know better & know how impressionable so many young, male teens & twenty somethings are. Your stories are like watching the show "Rediculousness".
This has taken my breath away. To know that someone like Paul Rosolie exists gives me hope. Brilliant. Thank you, Lex, for your depth and love you bring to those of us who have found you. How fortunate I am to be one of them.
"... And remember, this is only exhibition, not a competition... please... no wagering" - Dave Letterman (doing his "stupid human (or pet) tricks" bits)... still, this guy's abilities to paint images on the canvas of our brains is awesome, and coming from a once 9 year old illiterate, INSPIRING !
Definitely one of the best guests on your show. He makes you feel like you're there. Gave me a new appreciation for nature, animals, and the plants with medicine. I didn't want it to end
Love when I have zero expectations for a guest and they turn out to be a gem. This is the type of podcast you pause when you have to step away for a minute. I listened to every word.
Be very careful with this particular guy……… I heard him on one clip on Joe Rogan back in July,…. It’s now October, and I’ve booked a trip to the Amazon on his expedition. Every interview he gives is like this. I have to go and collect my own stories sitting in his boat now. He’s brilliant. Highly recommend “Mother Of God”
Lex, my husband have been watching you for a long time. We are in our mid and high 50's. Your voice, your vocabulary and the respect you show for your guests, even when you disagree is so unusual in society today (especially on the internet) You are a staple for us to watch and enjoy together and you are doing such a service to humanity. I pray you are so blessed and receive 100X back for all the time and insights into people and human nature you also share with your audience. Throughout this pandemic, and all the craziness that happened and is happening still, we love your calm, collected, patient, and introspective questions and topics you cover, as well as how you are a master listener.
Yes, isn't it interesting? Psychopathy is beautiful to us. Psychopaths,have an evolutionary advantage, super focused,tuned in, looking into his eyes,the glint. There is primal gaze. We're just biological machines?
It felt as if I was listening to nature itself speak. It's so grounding how genuine and sincere Paul is, this podcast was the biggest breath of fresh air.
Wow! At 49 minutes, and so engrossed. Fascinating. Was going through Lex's podcasts and stopped here bc this guest (whom I've never heard of before) has over 8M views😮. Elon had only 6M. Now I'm hooked on Paul, and will be Googling up a storm. What a guy. What a life. And Lex you're awesome. Love your conversational style curiosity. You ask deceptively simple questions then sit back and let your guests elaborate and beguile us with their stories. Thank you 🙏🏼
Human beings are of four types: 1. A man who knows, and knows that he knows. This is the scholar, so take and patiently learn from him. 2. A man who knows, but does not know that he knows. This one has forgotten, so quietly remind him. 3. A man who does not know, and knows that he does not know. This one is a student, so teach him continuously because he will be a great scholar one day. 4. A man who does not know, and does not know that he does not know and isn’t even interested in knowing. This one is an idiot, so reject him". ~ ECSaayli
@@LandonBell11 It is important to fail and therefore be wrong in order to learn, and in turn realize that “knowing” is the PURSUIT of knowledge itself that is important….and not the attainment of “all-knowing knowledge” (which is a myth). We look to scholars who stood before us to gain insight and understanding of knowledge: Einstein, Gandhi, Bruce Lee, Hawking…and many others who understood that the knowing is in the constant pursuit and therefore acceptance of inevitable failures as a means to rise above and further their knowledge - “a man who knows, and knows that he knows.”
this is officially the longest piece of individual content I've ever consumed in one sitting. That speaks volumes about how engaging this conversation with Paul and Lex was and how incredibly fascinating the topics covered are. The 3 and a half or so hours quite literally just flew right past me, and I promise you I could've never watched a movie that's this long without melting into my seat. Paul is especially gifted in his storyteller among other things. I felt like the way he described things made me experience what he probably experienced and it's just brilliant. Wow ❤
You can always tell a person who simply studies animals from a book and a person that has experienced the animal "soul". Steve Irwin was definetly smiling down that his messages of love and kindness still lives on. Amazing
@@darkprosesteve died because he made a mistake. They thought it was a different species than it was. The specied they thought it was only can attack side to side I believe but the species that it actually was (black manta ray but again I could be wrong) attacks in an upwards stabbing motion and steve got hit with an attack he thought was not possible because they misindentified the animal. Do not blame animals and nature for being animals and nature. Animald kill because the world was tainted and is imperfect that is why death looks and feels strange to us.
Sorry TH-cam is glitching. I thought I was commenting on a wired video called “spy support” featuring a woman but it seems TH-cam is displaying a different comments section somehow.
The BPM is an outward illusion. Lex is a somewhat anxious person. And when it comes to experiencing joys and pleasures I would care to bet he willingly increases his BPM.
This man is living my boyhood dream. I chased different adventures now but I was wrestless in school and dreamed of mountains and oceans and adventures. This guy is doing what I yearned for decades ago. It is a true joy hearing him tell his stories.
I understand, only because I have an adventurous son. I taught him to read and count early and that's where it ended- his real education was time with my dad, a biologist or building and fixing things with his dad. My son could identify unique classifications of birds, animals plants and trees by age five. By second grade his teachers tried to get me to put him on medication because he was bored, energetic and he didn't like sitting at a desk and staring at a one dimensional piece of paper for eight hours. He was a normal boy but we let him get tested, then I refused to put him on pills, especially when I learned that every child in his class got a recommendation to get tested and every child got a prescription. It's a situation of government subsidies, the doctors and the schools get a financial kickback. l think that we're evolving, cells have memory, we carry the history of our ancestors inside of us and we need to tap into that, at our core level, if we're going to know the truth about human history and cycles of destruction. Other than learning to read and to do some math, school is a monumental waste, they're teaching an agreed upon set of lies and with the level of indoctrination now it's become downright detrimental. Kids are being conditioned for conformity, legal slavery unawares and institutionalized living and thinking. A boy's natural thirst for adventure- that adrenaline rush- is channeled into sex, drugs, fast cars and otherwise embracing the dark side. Or they resign themselves to their fate and escape into technology and/or conforming. I don't think enough people realize that we are going to be living off the land in our lifetime, and it will be incredibly rewarding and humbling..some will choose to lose their soul in exchange for inconvenient convenience, it's essentially bondage leading them blindly into the mouth of the dragon. We would do well to start workshops teaching children- and even adults- basic and advanced survival skills and natural living. The world is so incredibly vast, parts of it have yet to be seen by human eyes, so beautiful -yet people pile on top of each other on a concrete slab, a prison without bars. That isn't truly living.
@@maggiemoonpie2168 Could you briefly explain how you believe we are going to be "living off the land" in our lifetimes? Also clarify what you mean exactly when you say "live off the land." Can't imagine total societal collapse in our lifetime but I'm interested in your response.
Its no wonder Lex is going to the Amazon with this guy. Wealth of knowledge and has connections to other very experienced adventurers of the Amazon. Can't wait to hear about it.
This conversation was so refreshing. So much energy and clarity in his words, at times I was overwhelmed with goosebumps from the perceivable beauty in his descriptions.
Agreed! Visiting a small part of the rainforest in Costa Rica & seeing how amazing the ppl & wildlife there was is the coolest thing I've ever done so can only imagine what experiencing the Amazon would be like but def hope to go sometime soon😊
@@Sheseasyouthere So how much YOU donate? Enough to make an actual difference or just enough to virtue signal & feed your unchecked ego??🧐 It's obnoxiously hypocritical & arrogant to assume (based off 1 comment a total stranger made) you know what ANYone else is or has done so maybe lay off the nasty attacks & practice some kindness & humility ffs!!!
This podcast hits so close to home. It just makes me feel good. I grew up in the Deep South US where thankfully we still have lots of rural, wooded areas with low population density. Of course it's nothing like the places Paul has been, but it's provided me a lifetime of amazing experiences away from concrete and people. If I don't get out in nature every week I start feeling anxious. I cannot imagine the things this amazing man has seen.
I was thinking the same. Walking to my mailbox a half mile away I see tracks. I heard leaves rustled. I see a tree being bored by something with claws for bugs inside. I step over a bug. Nothing compared to this man’s experience but quite something to what most people experience. I’m also in the South. Very rural. I wouldn’t trade it for anything.
@@citizentex5720 Nice post! Just in the past few days I've seen deer, crows, turkeys, buzzards, squirrels, geese, hundreds of various species of birds, and a possum in my large back yard that borders woods. I keep a pair of binos on my kitchen window sill to get closer looks. I put all my animal carcasses and uneaten food near the treeline so make sure the local buzzards always have a snack. They are ugly to most people, but to me they're beautiful. Few people realize that buzzard poults are fluffy white. We had a family living in an old shooting box on my dad's farm. We turned it over to them, lol.
I relate to Paul Rosolie's experiences as in my part of the world, in my lifetime, I've woefully watched as they paved paradise and put up parking lots 😢
Very well put! I love scuba diving places that have never been seen, and it all goes back to a creek at my grandmothers house on the mobile bay. That creek, from the clams in the sand, all the way up to just the Spanish moss hanging from centuries old oak trees hanging over it, all gave me such a strong sense of wonder. Like how is there so much beauty, and we don’t even know the half of it!
Paul has an amazing ability to tell a story in a way that makes you feel as if you were there. That is a rare ability. There are lots of people who go into the Amazon, but not everyone can make someone feel as if you're there.
Paul has an incredible gift for telling stories. The way he just talks about the events that happened in his life so far is absolutely amazing to listen too. You can visualize what he saying 💜
Huge shoutout to you Mr. Fridman for bringing on Mr. Rosolie! In all honesty, I never knew he was until I saw this video. Now I’m well aware and am going to purchase his book. This by FAR was your most intriguing interview. Within the first several minutes, I was thinking, “What in the hell was this crazy ass dude doing?!?” As it went on, I really got a profound sense of not just nature, but life I’m general. He literally is doing God’s work and many more of us need to do the same. Phenomenal!!
What an incredible and deeply moving podcast. I suddenly feel the urge to just go outside and take in everything around me. The perspective and storytelling in this episode is wonderful.
Go outside- kick off your shoes- walk barefoot on the earth and soak up the sun and Mother Nature!! My favorite place and sanctuary is my woods! God is near you there, also.👍👍✌️🙏❤️
“Nobody no matter what the force can occupy my current space. I go to the wild.” Albert Camus. Yes. The tall pines & 4 corner deserts are my soulitude. Sanity.
I cant say ive sat through an interview this long, heck Snyders justice league barely held me this long, but hearing him talk about the Amazon was just captivating. The awe and just sheer respect and passion he has for part of the world....was inspiring. Dont know that ive been that passionate about anything in life, its moments like these that makes a person wonder what their meaning in the world is. Glad you did this one, amazing.
i cant begin to express how important it is to let our children follow their dreams, to trust them in their passions and their process. This amazing man is who he is because his parents let him live his dreams and trusted him enough to know that he knew what he was doing. Bless your parents, what an amazing interview.
Almost every other show falls into one of four categories; 1) academic (usually AI, mathematics or computer science) 2) super-guest (Musk, Rogan, Kanye) 3) biographical story of a comedian or a rare athlete/skill holder (Like the chess player or the arm wrestler) 4) political theory in general, historical event or current event (like Ukraine) This show is more like an adventure. This category should be explored further by Lex imo.
Wonderful episode, so many memories. I’ve been very fortunate to have met Paul, JJ, Victor, and the entire team at the lodge in Madre de Dios. It was a life changing experience, and I cannot thank all of the team enough for welcoming us so warm heartedly and showing us their beautiful world with such love and passion. Like all of the few remaining natural “wonders”, the Amazon need to be protected by all means. We originate from mother nature, and we must never hurt or kill our mother 💔
I actually love the way he’ll just stop after hearing his guest speak and just close his eyes, breath deep and absorb what he just heard. I do it at the same time sometimes while listening.
i honestly got annoyed more than once that hed go back to the notes and dive off one subject paul was talking super passionately about, like saving the rain forest and how he can have an impact at 18 - and lex immediately looks at the paper and asks " so what about andacondas". Was an amazing interview and im new to his process / channel but it felt pretty inauthentic more than once bc of this
@@kamBlak3Lex has said before this is all still a learning curve for him, there must be some anxiety there to have variation and keep topics going he’s always open about his flaws so it’s hard to fault him
i’ve tried to watch almost all podcasts with paul in it, the way he tells stories and stares into the distance like he’s back in the story as he tell is, he seems to be living his dream truly.
@@daniellegarcia1599I personally just finished him on Joe Rogan and looked up if he made any other appearances and found this, I think you'll enjoy it as much as I did
I've been following this gentleman on Instagram for 4 years and always wondered when he will finally have the opportunity to share his story on a big scale like JRE. I'm so glad he finally made it onto this incredible podcast and can't wait to finish listening to it
Loved this interview! I did not know Paul until this episode, but it's refreshing to see such a compassionate human being. I love how knowledgeable and caring he is about nature, and at the same time he does not pretend to know everything about every topic, yet he can share deeply relatable thoughts on those topics in his own words. It's refreshing to see someone with this passion that also is not fueled by hatred against those who don't see eye to eye with him. This approach is much more likely to make people understand his stance, vs throwing stones. Great job Paul, I wish we all thought this logically and open minded. ❤
Came here from Spotify just to comment how amazing this episode was. Having listened to a large portion of your episodes, this was one of the best. Thank you
JJ died. About 30 minute in He told the story about how great of a man JJ was and how he was somewhat of a legend of the Amazon until one day he was at a local BBQ and suddenly passed away. He doesn’t elaborate on how he died.
As I started my morning here in Gothenburg, Sweden with an hour hike, having this pod playing in my Marshall headphones I ended up on my favorite spot on top of a mountain looking out over the ocean I got a fire going for the rest of the pod. Life bruh! This was an amazing conversation, thank you Lex and Paul.
As I started my morning here in the UK on the toilet with a routine function, having this pod playing on my phones speakers, I ended up with my ass empty and my legs numb. Life bruh!
I had to play this one to a friend its so good. This dude's life experiences must have been so surreal. Sad to hear he got divorced tho. I guess the Mrs. didnt want to share him with the jungle 😅
I'm willing to bet that mankind will eventually send a supposedly invincible android to the tribes out there and the robot will force itself upon the tribe learning their language and it will live with the tribe and start communicating with the tribe until it tricks the tribe into accepting the android as one of their own.
What an episode... It means something when I say this, because all your episodes are amazing and the quality is constantly going higher, but man.... goose bumps all the way. Thank you for all you work, both of you. You're rays of sunshine in this dark dark world
I almost DIDNT watch this one, and I'm not sure why, perhaps because I had no idea who this gentleman was. Which goes against most everything I love this Podcast for! I have been exposed to so many amazing people and ideas through your show. What a mistake that would have been . . . This is one of THE BEST Podcast sessions on any show, and one of the most amazing conversations I have ever heard. Truly special!
This is the absolute the BEST podcast Ive ever had the pleasure of listening to. What an incredible storyteller, I could listen to him talk for hours. 👏👏👏
What a treat!! I feel asleep with TH-cam on last night on accident and gradually woke up to it this morning. So thankful! I never would of watched this otherwise! Awesome episode! This reminded me of a long lost interest I had since childhood of the Amazon rainforest! Absolutely brilliant! I must go there now!
This is my favorite episode so far. Never heard of Rosolie before. Besides his survival skills, there is no denying that he's also hugely skilled, or gifted, in terms of language, and his ability to paint a picture.
I’m listening with a headset thinking I can finish household chores….but damn if I didn’t have to sit down and stare at this guy for the entirety of the interview. I don’t have proper words for how fascinating this is. Absolutely riveting!
@@carlamarlene2927 lol…..it was a very compelling interview! Made me change my mind and think about thinks I never had before. I appreciate Joe Reading gab’s podcast for that very reason. All , or most, of his guests are so unique and interesting.He’s a great interviewer as well!
Honestly this was one of the best Podcasts I’ve watched so far from Lex. This man was such a joy to listen to and hear his stories. It’s crazy how disconnected most of humanity is from nature.
This is the most incredible guest you've had on here, he is an otherworldly story teller, but not to the point where it gets annoying. He knows precisely when to finish his points for the next question, talks at a steady pace, and knows how to carry on the conversation. I do not work in the field of conversation nor is it something I have a particular interest in, I do have a fascination with the world around me though. This guy is incredibly intelligent and has an understanding of the world that I envy, I am so excited to read his books.
This podcast by far is the best, Educational and most interesting one of ALL podcasts entirely Ever , Lex! Thank you! for introducing us to Paul Rosalie! Can't wait to hear about your Amazon Adventure with Paul, please share it❤
I’ve listened to this episode in its entirety too many times to count at this point, Lex. I’m still in awe of this man and I feel I could listen to y’all talk with each other for days on end even still. Quite easily my favorite guest and episode you’ve ever had, and I can’t wait to hear about your trip to the Amazon with him as your guide. I do hope that you are somehow able to fully document the entirety of your time spent there so we can share in the experience with you on some level. I’m unendingly appreciative of what you yourself bring to the world, Lex, thank you for everything that you do ❤️
This podcast was so engaging, I caught myself CACKLING at Lex ranting about the evolution of an organism to form an apex. I think in our modern day society podcasts like this come and go, but Lex caught lightning in a bottle with having Paul on.
"You both made me tremble with emotion, almost cry at times. I laughed a lot, and I felt a lot. We are insignificantly small and incredibly big at the same time. Thank you for making us all see this. Thank you, Lex, thank you, Paul. You both are necessary in the midst of all this madness where we live
First time I watch a 3.5 hour podcast entirely. This was the most amazing conversation ever! The earth need many more Paul Rosolies 🙏 I now have a new item on my bucket list ❤
This guy is everything I wish I could be. I just sit around complaining about the heartlessness in the world. He's actually doing something about it. Thank you for giving me hope in humanity!
This was probably one of the most inspiring Lex interviews. The red line was coming to the end, and I was like , argh, I hope this doesn't finish so soooon!
I’m a huge Paul Rosolie, and I had no idea almost 4 hours have passed. This is my first interview of yours I have watched and I’m a hooked. I am upset with myself for not watching any sooner, but I’m so excited for all the content I have to consume. I do UberEats full time, and I will be consuming a lot of your content in the next coming days. Thank You Lex for what you, and especially for giving Paul a place to get his message out
im only 11 minutes in and i had to pause because this guy is blowing my mind with his experience of life. like wow pure raw jungle, no wonder our brains are the way they are bcuz there is so much to process when youre in the real rich life jungle!
One of my favourite podcasts - was absolutely enthralled through out whilst walking in the forests of my Austrian home - Paul gave me new eyes in the forest and inspired me to swim in an ice melt pool, whilst instead of striding along the trails I stopped to listen and feel. Incredible podcast! Brought back Incredible memories of a visit to the Panamanian rain forests. Indescribable beauty, but Paul makes one feel like you are in the jungle with him. Thanks Lex 🐾🌳🐍🐞🦜
Wasn’t it weird how the interviewer had so little emotion at all and is monotone. Said he is interested in technology not conservation right as the guy is pouring his soul into conservation efforts lol seems a lil morbid to me or like he has something to hide deep inside thst he is calculating how to keep a secret
I have ADD and find it very hard to just sit and listen to podcasts. This is was the first time I was so intrigued, I listen to the whole thing in one swoop. I hope to hear more from him. Fantastic guest.
Watched the entite JRE episode and I NEEDED more from Paul so now I watched this entire pod RIGHT after the JRE one😂. He is such a good storyteller and surprisingly funny af!
dude i did the same thing. i saw a clip of jre with paul on youtube shorts and then watched the whole podcast searched for me. like i want to be friends with paul now lol
Yesss! Been out to jungle w Paul 4x now - he is an amazing person! Absolutely fascinating and some of the best experiences of my life! JJ and Mohsin and the entire crew are all wonderful people
Super grounding to hear this episode immediately after the discussions about AGI. The contrast and quality of both topics has left my mind spinning, top podcasting Lex, cheers as always!
Wow I love this man. This is one of the most spiritual stories I've heard and I listen to a lot this man proves that we are all connected even the animals in the trees and the rainforest and the cats and the dogs. I Love The Way You Are so descriptive in your stories

he says the amazon is the best example of natural growth, meanwhile, the trees are above the level of the man made structures, so clearly a civilization was there before the present day vegetation.

Lex brother the anaconda story you heard at the beginning was a fatttttttt lie. Look it up, anacondas dont get that long, they get heavy. Reticulated python will be the one they find thats “25” feet
I've seen almost your entire library of podcasts. This has to be my favorite so far. incredible story telling.
He's the best by far
@AndreCorbeil No no😂... The Killers are evil bastards alright 👍
Yes...hoping this podcast will surpass all the other podcasts in views in short time. The information is very valuable to all.
This Paul Rololie Dude is off
the charts cool . N O T easy work . . .
- . . . I ' m sure .
@AndreCorbeil They defend their land possibly because they were victimized so a few could get rich? Interesting you use the word "tricked" as if the interview was trying to do harm in a dishonest manner... confusing if that was your implication.
I'm 1 hour in and I gotta say that this is easily my favorite guest you've had on by far. This man needs to be protected at all costs. What a gem to humanity.
He jumps onto Anacondas. Obviously, *GOD* is protecting him more than we ever could.
"This man needs to be protected at all costs." What a stupid thing to say.
@@andysmith1996 Pretty common thing to say on the internet.

You know a conversation is good when its 3 and a half hours long and when it ends you wish there were more. Great episode!
“🤓no comments, let me change that🤓”
Agreed bro
Trying to grab an anaconda (weighing 200-400 pounds or more) is officially the dumbest of dumb-dude moves! Do you grab tigers by the tail, tweek elephants on the trunk & punch rinos in the mouth too?

Gives you hope WTF?
One of THE BEST guests. Amazing colorful storytelling. Bravo.
You are right, this man is on the level of Manolis Kellis with the stories.
Certified, was hooked after the first 2 minutes !
I’m with you on that one. Find a quiet place at night to tune into this one.
"... And remember, this is only exhibition, not a competition... please... no wagering" - Dave Letterman (doing his "stupid human (or pet) tricks" bits)... still, this guy's abilities to paint images on the canvas of our brains is awesome, and coming from a once 9 year old illiterate, INSPIRING !
I k r? I didn’t know about him before but an incredibly memorable episode. Made me get up before dawn and go out to nature today!
Paul has a beautiful gift of storytelling. What an articulate and thoughtful human being!!!
I agree
He is! And Lex brought that out even more, the chemistry was perfect-
lol no you dont and the hood is nothing
I could listen to this man tell stories of the amazon for days. I hope he does more public interviews!
I recently saw this one too - th-cam.com/video/eytcGavv5ck/w-d-xo.html
He’s recently been on Joe Rogan
The story about the 16ft anaconda was BS 😂 he jumped on it and it was so big he couldn’t wrap his arms around it 🤣
@@oo0024regardless, it’s a good story told well.
@@oo0024 And you would know ...
Definitely one of the best guests on your show. He makes you feel like you're there. Gave me a new appreciation for nature, animals, and the plants with medicine. I didn't want it to end
Love when I have zero expectations for a guest and they turn out to be a gem. This is the type of podcast you pause when you have to step away for a minute. I listened to every word.
Be very careful with this particular guy……… I heard him on one clip on Joe Rogan back in July,…. It’s now October, and I’ve booked a trip to the Amazon on his expedition. Every interview he gives is like this. I have to go and collect my own stories sitting in his boat now. He’s brilliant. Highly recommend “Mother Of God”
Yes sir

Lex, my husband have been watching you for a long time. We are in our mid and high 50's. Your voice, your vocabulary and the respect you show for your guests, even when you disagree is so unusual in society today (especially on the internet) You are a staple for us to watch and enjoy together and you are doing such a service to humanity. I pray you are so blessed and receive 100X back for all the time and insights into people and human nature you also share with your audience. Throughout this pandemic, and all the craziness that happened and is happening still, we love your calm, collected, patient, and introspective questions and topics you cover, as well as how you are a master listener.
unusual indeed
Yep.
Yes, isn't it interesting? Psychopathy is beautiful to us. Psychopaths,have an evolutionary advantage, super focused,tuned in, looking into his eyes,the glint. There is primal gaze. We're just biological machines?
It felt as if I was listening to nature itself speak. It's so grounding how genuine and sincere Paul is, this podcast was the biggest breath of fresh air.
Wow! At 49 minutes, and so engrossed. Fascinating. Was going through Lex's podcasts and stopped here bc this guest (whom I've never heard of before) has over 8M views😮. Elon had only 6M. Now I'm hooked on Paul, and will be Googling up a storm. What a guy. What a life. And Lex you're awesome. Love your conversational style curiosity. You ask deceptively simple questions then sit back and let your guests elaborate and beguile us with their stories. Thank you 🙏🏼
After 90 minutes of listening to this man I realize how tiny I am, how little I know, and how much the things I care about mean to me.
Yes, I feel extremely unaccomplished after listening
Human beings are of four types:
1. A man who knows, and knows that he knows. This is the scholar, so take and patiently learn from him.
2. A man who knows, but does not know that he knows. This one has forgotten, so quietly remind him.
3. A man who does not know, and knows that he does not know. This one is a student, so teach him continuously because he will be a great scholar one day.
4. A man who does not know, and does not know that he does not know and isn’t even interested in knowing. This one is an idiot, so reject him".

@@stokedmtb333 #1 is a myth.
The more you know, the more ways you realize you can be wrong. Nobody that isn't dangerous would consider themselves #1.
@@LandonBell11 It is important to fail and therefore be wrong in order to learn, and in turn realize that “knowing” is the PURSUIT of knowledge itself that is important….and not the attainment of “all-knowing knowledge” (which is a myth). We look to scholars who stood before us to gain insight and understanding of knowledge: Einstein, Gandhi, Bruce Lee, Hawking…and many others who understood that the knowing is in the constant pursuit and therefore acceptance of inevitable failures as a means to rise above and further their knowledge - “a man who knows, and knows that he knows.”
@@stokedmtb333 so... knowing isn't knowing, but knowing you don't know?
Sounds like we're saying the same thing.
I cant believe stories this good are free on TH-cam. Thank you Lex and Paul
yes free minus your monthly internet service bill or invoice😅, or phone bill. lolz, but anyways, yes I agree!
@@nozrep stolen electricity and Internet. I'm a very naughty fellow.
@@nozrep That comment was so fucking unnecessary
@@Hrossey You rock you slick bastard!! 🤜🏽😂
@@nozrep your point?
this is officially the longest piece of individual content I've ever consumed in one sitting.
That speaks volumes about how engaging this conversation with Paul and Lex was and how incredibly fascinating the topics covered are. The 3 and a half or so hours quite literally just flew right past me, and I promise you I could've never watched a movie that's this long without melting into my seat.
Paul is especially gifted in his storyteller among other things. I felt like the way he described things made me experience what he probably experienced and it's just brilliant.
Wow ❤
Same here. Gave me goosebumps multiple multiple times. Amazing
@@carrieallen5057 really makes me wanna visit the amazon now lol
One of the few interviews I've watched beginning to end. I bought his book.
One sitting 😳
Does that include films?
By far my biggest hero. Ive been following this dude since 24 (10 years) when i was just learning how to packraft.
You can always tell a person who simply studies animals from a book and a person that has experienced the animal "soul". Steve Irwin was definetly smiling down that his messages of love and kindness still lives on. Amazing
I wonder what insight Irwin had into the soul of the stingray that stabbed him in the heart.. I’d ask him, but he’s dead.
@@darkprosesteve died because he made a mistake. They thought it was a different species than it was. The specied they thought it was only can attack side to side I believe but the species that it actually was (black manta ray but again I could be wrong) attacks in an upwards stabbing motion and steve got hit with an attack he thought was not possible because they misindentified the animal. Do not blame animals and nature for being animals and nature. Animald kill because the world was tainted and is imperfect that is why death looks and feels strange to us.
This is one of the best podcasts I will ever watch. So many parts that make me want to cry from happiness and from sadness.
By far one of the best podcasts I’ve ever heard. Lexs curiosity and this guys stories was just such a great listen. Love u Lex
This guy? What?
Sorry TH-cam is glitching. I thought I was commenting on a wired video called “spy support” featuring a woman but it seems TH-cam is displaying a different comments section somehow.
@@somethingsomething404 lol
As a future conservation photographer this makes me so excited to see what the future holds. I love the way he talks about the jungle and the animals.
Lex gets off a rollercoaster with a wry smile and in a slow measured way he says "That was nice". His heartbeat never got above 65bpm.
Hahaha
I can totally imagine that😂
Psychopath
Robots be like that 😋
The BPM is an outward illusion. Lex is a somewhat anxious person. And when it comes to experiencing joys and pleasures I would care to bet he willingly increases his BPM.
This man is living my boyhood dream. I chased different adventures now but I was wrestless in school and dreamed of mountains and oceans and adventures. This guy is doing what I yearned for decades ago. It is a true joy hearing him tell his stories.
I understand, only because I have an adventurous son. I taught him to read and count early and that's where it ended- his real education was time with my dad, a biologist or building and fixing things with his dad. My son could identify unique classifications of birds, animals plants and trees by age five.
By second grade his teachers tried to get me to put him on medication because he was bored, energetic and he didn't like sitting at a desk and staring at a one dimensional piece of paper for eight hours. He was a normal boy but we let him get tested, then I refused to put him on pills, especially when I learned that every child in his class got a recommendation to get tested and every child got a prescription. It's a situation of government subsidies, the doctors and the schools get a financial kickback.
l think that we're evolving, cells have memory, we carry the history of our ancestors inside of us and we need to tap into that, at our core level, if we're going to know the truth about human history and cycles of destruction. Other than learning to read and to do some math, school is a monumental waste, they're teaching an agreed upon set of lies and with the level of indoctrination now it's become downright detrimental. Kids are being conditioned for conformity, legal slavery unawares and institutionalized living and thinking.
A boy's natural thirst for adventure- that adrenaline rush- is channeled into sex, drugs, fast cars and otherwise embracing the dark side. Or they resign themselves to their fate and escape into technology and/or conforming. I don't think enough people realize that we are going to be living off the land in our lifetime, and it will be incredibly rewarding and humbling..some will choose to lose their soul in exchange for inconvenient convenience, it's essentially bondage leading them blindly into the mouth of the dragon. We would do well to start workshops teaching children- and even adults- basic and advanced survival skills and natural living. The world is so incredibly vast, parts of it have yet to be seen by human eyes, so beautiful -yet people pile on top of each other on a concrete slab, a prison without bars. That isn't truly living.
You can, it's called bushcraft
@@maggiemoonpie2168 Could you briefly explain how you believe we are going to be "living off the land" in our lifetimes? Also clarify what you mean exactly when you say "live off the land."
Can't imagine total societal collapse in our lifetime but I'm interested in your response.
@@SonoftheWest316 hunting and gathering. Why do you ask stupid questions bro?
Argue with your fn mom if you're bored.
It's never too late, go seek your adventure. ❤
This was so unexpectedly fun to hear. I feel like his experience and wellspokeness unlocked a part of the jungle i never knew existed. Great guest
I love this Podcast but perhaps this is the best of then all
Its no wonder Lex is going to the Amazon with this guy. Wealth of knowledge and has connections to other very experienced adventurers of the Amazon. Can't wait to hear about it.
This conversation was so refreshing. So much energy and clarity in his words, at times I was overwhelmed with goosebumps from the perceivable beauty in his descriptions.
Foreal
You’re definitely a beta boy
Agreed! Visiting a small part of the rainforest in Costa Rica & seeing how amazing the ppl & wildlife there was is the coolest thing I've ever done so can only imagine what experiencing the Amazon would be like but def hope to go sometime soon😊
same here bro!
@@Sheseasyouthere So how much YOU donate? Enough to make an actual difference or just enough to virtue signal & feed your unchecked ego??🧐 It's obnoxiously hypocritical & arrogant to assume (based off 1 comment a total stranger made) you know what ANYone else is or has done so maybe lay off the nasty attacks & practice some kindness & humility ffs!!!
This podcast hits so close to home. It just makes me feel good. I grew up in the Deep South US where thankfully we still have lots of rural, wooded areas with low population density. Of course it's nothing like the places Paul has been, but it's provided me a lifetime of amazing experiences away from concrete and people. If I don't get out in nature every week I start feeling anxious. I cannot imagine the things this amazing man has seen.
I was thinking the same. Walking to my mailbox a half mile away I see tracks. I heard leaves rustled. I see a tree being bored by something with claws for bugs inside. I step over a bug. Nothing compared to this man’s experience but quite something to what most people experience.
I’m also in the South. Very rural. I wouldn’t trade it for anything.
@@citizentex5720 Nice post! Just in the past few days I've seen deer, crows, turkeys, buzzards, squirrels, geese, hundreds of various species of birds, and a possum in my large back yard that borders woods. I keep a pair of binos on my kitchen window sill to get closer looks. I put all my animal carcasses and uneaten food near the treeline so make sure the local buzzards always have a snack. They are ugly to most people, but to me they're beautiful. Few people realize that buzzard poults are fluffy white. We had a family living in an old shooting box on my dad's farm. We turned it over to them, lol.
I relate to
Paul Rosolie's experiences as in my part of the world, in my lifetime, I've woefully watched as they paved paradise and put up parking lots 😢
I can relate , I grew up in Alaska we had no shortage of adventures in the wild growing up , I wouldn’t trade those experiences for nothing
Very well put! I love scuba diving places that have never been seen, and it all goes back to a creek at my grandmothers house on the mobile bay. That creek, from the clams in the sand, all the way up to just the Spanish moss hanging from centuries old oak trees hanging over it, all gave me such a strong sense of wonder. Like how is there so much beauty, and we don’t even know the half of it!
Paul has an amazing ability to tell a story in a way that makes you feel as if you were there. That is a rare ability. There are lots of people who go into the Amazon, but not everyone can make someone feel as if you're there.
for the first 2 minutes he made up the anaconda story. you don't see a snake that large and then decide to go catch it, that makes zero sense
@@John_theodorethat’s your reasoning for why it’s not true😂
@@John_theodore I stopped watching right there lol, completely ridiculous.
Paul has an incredible gift for telling stories. The way he just talks about the events that happened in his life so far is absolutely amazing to listen too. You can visualize what he saying 💜
This may have been the most beautiful storytelling podcast I've every listened to. Thank you, Lex.

Bs he found a snake so thick he couldnt wrap his arms around it
Incredible , this podcast left me speechless, i felt i was rediscovering reality with paul rosolie´s stories
Feel so too! What an amazing person.
It sent shiver down my spine that how dynamic those old jungles could be.
We’re definitely the most sedentary creatures on the planet now.
Brilliant way of putting it. I felt like it was reminding me of that childhood wonder that gets beaten out of us in these tramline lives
Gotta be honest. Easily my favourite guest. Bravo, Lex. If you make it to the jungle with him you have to tell us all about it.
Bring a camera Lex... Good Idea! Do a show like that... A field Trip!
Huge shoutout to you Mr. Fridman for bringing on Mr. Rosolie! In all honesty, I never knew he was until I saw this video. Now I’m well aware and am going to purchase his book. This by FAR was your most intriguing interview. Within the first several minutes, I was thinking, “What in the hell was this crazy ass dude doing?!?” As it went on, I really got a profound sense of not just nature, but life I’m general. He literally is doing God’s work and many more of us need to do the same. Phenomenal!!
Totally fascinating. Listening to Paul is like reading a book that you can't put down.
Wow that’s definitely one of the best analogies I have seen
agree
Can you give me some examples of books that you can’t put down please?
@@yosemalo The Holy Bible for one. I'm surprised you can read funny man.
@@usscott what?
What an incredible and deeply moving podcast. I suddenly feel the urge to just go outside and take in everything around me. The perspective and storytelling in this episode is wonderful.
Go outside- kick off your shoes- walk barefoot on the earth and soak up the sun and Mother Nature!!
My favorite place and sanctuary is my woods!
God is near you there, also.👍👍✌️🙏❤️
“Nobody no matter what the force can occupy my current space. I go to the wild.” Albert Camus.

great story teller
Such a grate guy
I'm actually listening to this twice now. One of the most interesting people to listen to in all of YT
I cant say ive sat through an interview this long, heck Snyders justice league barely held me this long, but hearing him talk about the Amazon was just captivating. The awe and just sheer respect and passion he has for part of the world....was inspiring. Dont know that ive been that passionate about anything in life, its moments like these that makes a person wonder what their meaning in the world is. Glad you did this one, amazing.
i cant begin to express how important it is to let our children follow their dreams, to trust them in their passions and their process. This amazing man is who he is because his parents let him live his dreams and trusted him enough to know that he knew what he was doing. Bless your parents, what an amazing interview.
This is now my favorite cast to date. Brilliant! Wonderful! Inspirational!
Almost every other show falls into one of four categories;
1) academic (usually AI, mathematics or computer science)
2) super-guest (Musk, Rogan, Kanye)
3) biographical story of a comedian or a rare athlete/skill holder (Like the chess player or the arm wrestler)
4) political theory in general, historical event or current event (like Ukraine)
This show is more like an adventure. This category should be explored further by Lex imo.
@@RobVollat true!
Wonderful episode, so many memories. I’ve been very fortunate to have met Paul, JJ, Victor, and the entire team at the lodge in Madre de Dios. It was a life changing experience, and I cannot thank all of the team enough for welcoming us so warm heartedly and showing us their beautiful world with such love and passion. Like all of the few remaining natural “wonders”, the Amazon need to be protected by all means. We originate from mother nature, and we must never hurt or kill our mother 💔
Lex is one of the best interviewers I've seen. He's the prime example of someone who listens instead of waiting for his turn to talk.
A😮
i think paul did the interviewer when it came to alinens hahaha
I actually love the way he’ll just stop after hearing his guest speak and just close his eyes, breath deep and absorb what he just heard. I do it at the same time sometimes while listening.
i honestly got annoyed more than once that hed go back to the notes and dive off one subject paul was talking super passionately about, like saving the rain forest and how he can have an impact at 18 - and lex immediately looks at the paper and asks " so what about andacondas". Was an amazing interview and im new to his process / channel but it felt pretty inauthentic more than once bc of this
@@kamBlak3Lex has said before this is all still a learning curve for him, there must be some anxiety there to have variation and keep topics going he’s always open about his flaws so it’s hard to fault him
i’ve tried to watch almost all podcasts with paul in it, the way he tells stories and stares into the distance like he’s back in the story as he tell is, he seems to be living his dream truly.
Is there other podcasts you recommend that he is in, I just stared watching him, and I’m really interested

Loved this interview! I did not know Paul until this episode, but it's refreshing to see such a compassionate human being. I love how knowledgeable and caring he is about nature, and at the same time he does not pretend to know everything about every topic, yet he can share deeply relatable thoughts on those topics in his own words. It's refreshing to see someone with this passion that also is not fueled by hatred against those who don't see eye to eye with him. This approach is much more likely to make people understand his stance, vs throwing stones. Great job Paul, I wish we all thought this logically and open minded. ❤
Came here from Spotify just to comment how amazing this episode was. Having listened to a large portion of your episodes, this was one of the best. Thank you

ice poseidon
I agree. 'The Movie just started, i came online' Brilliant description.
I had to play this one to a friend its so good. This dude's life experiences must have been so surreal. Sad to hear he got divorced tho. I guess the Mrs. didnt want to share him with the jungle 😅
I'm willing to bet that mankind will eventually send a supposedly invincible android to the tribes out there and the robot will force itself upon the tribe learning their language and it will live with the tribe and start communicating with the tribe until it tricks the tribe into accepting the android as one of their own.
What an episode... It means something when I say this, because all your episodes are amazing and the quality is constantly going higher, but man.... goose bumps all the way. Thank you for all you work, both of you. You're rays of sunshine in this dark dark world
At 70 this guy has changed my mind regarding snakes and understanding my son’s inkling towards the Amazon. What a life.
I almost DIDNT watch this one, and I'm not sure why, perhaps because I had no idea who this gentleman was. Which goes against most everything I love this Podcast for! I have been exposed to so many amazing people and ideas through your show. What a mistake that would have been . . . This is one of THE BEST Podcast sessions on any show, and one of the most amazing conversations I have ever heard. Truly special!
This is the absolute the BEST podcast Ive ever had the pleasure of listening to. What an incredible storyteller, I could listen to him talk for hours. 👏👏👏
Yes, he's good at making things up.
This was an excellent episode, Rosolie is a super interesting guy and the chemistry between you two was really enjoyable to listen to. Thanks Lex.
I watch this video just to hear how he describes the stars on the water. A genuine experience that holds such weight in the jungle love it
What a treat!! I feel asleep with TH-cam on last night on accident and gradually woke up to it this morning. So thankful! I never would of watched this otherwise! Awesome episode!
This reminded me of a long lost interest I had since childhood of the Amazon rainforest! Absolutely brilliant! I must go there now!
This is my favorite episode so far. Never heard of Rosolie before. Besides his survival skills, there is no denying that he's also hugely skilled, or gifted, in terms of language, and his ability to paint a picture.
I’m listening with a headset thinking I can finish household chores….but damn if I didn’t have to sit down and stare at this guy for the entirety of the interview. I don’t have proper words for how fascinating this is. Absolutely riveting!

Right? I thought I'd listen whilst doing my sewing projects. Nope
@@carlamarlene2927 lol…..it was a very compelling interview! Made me change my mind and think about thinks I never had before. I appreciate Joe Reading gab’s podcast for that very reason. All , or most, of his guests are so unique and interesting.He’s a great interviewer as well!
Probably my favorite podcast ever. What a legend, speaking about heroic people with balls.. dude got all my respect
Honestly this was one of the best Podcasts I’ve watched so far from Lex. This man was such a joy to listen to and hear his stories. It’s crazy how disconnected most of humanity is from nature.
I echo the fact some others have articulated that this is the greatest podcast I have heard from Lex yet. Fantastic guest, amazing topics and stories.
This episode is poetry! I love this man’s enthusiasm and eloquence.
Discovery did him so dirty. So happy he's getting to tell the real stories
This is the most incredible guest you've had on here, he is an otherworldly story teller, but not to the point where it gets annoying. He knows precisely when to finish his points for the next question, talks at a steady pace, and knows how to carry on the conversation.
I do not work in the field of conversation nor is it something I have a particular interest in, I do have a fascination with the world around me though. This guy is incredibly intelligent and has an understanding of the world that I envy, I am so excited to read his books.
This podcast by far is the best, Educational and most interesting one of ALL podcasts entirely Ever , Lex! Thank you! for introducing us to Paul Rosalie! Can't wait to hear about your Amazon Adventure with Paul, please share it❤
I’ve listened to this episode in its entirety too many times to count at this point, Lex. I’m still in awe of this man and I feel I could listen to y’all talk with each other for days on end even still. Quite easily my favorite guest and episode you’ve ever had, and I can’t wait to hear about your trip to the Amazon with him as your guide. I do hope that you are somehow able to fully document the entirety of your time spent there so we can share in the experience with you on some level. I’m unendingly appreciative of what you yourself bring to the world, Lex, thank you for everything that you do ❤️
Agreed.💫🙏
Impressive considering it only a week old. But I agree. What a podcast. A refreshing and eye opening look at a generally hidden region of our planet.
This podcast was so engaging, I caught myself CACKLING at Lex ranting about the evolution of an organism to form an apex. I think in our modern day society podcasts like this come and go, but Lex caught lightning in a bottle with having Paul on.
Paul Rosolie is just an amazing person. The stories he brings back from the Amazon are just incredible!
"You both made me tremble with emotion, almost cry at times. I laughed a lot, and I felt a lot. We are insignificantly small and incredibly big at the same time. Thank you for making us all see this. Thank you, Lex, thank you, Paul. You both are necessary in the midst of all this madness where we live
After a few years of watching your podcast I think I've just watched my favourite one. Great guest!
First time I watch a 3.5 hour podcast entirely. This was the most amazing conversation ever! The earth need many more Paul Rosolies 🙏 I now have a new item on my bucket list ❤
This guy is everything I wish I could be. I just sit around complaining about the heartlessness in the world. He's actually doing something about it. Thank you for giving me hope in humanity!
This was probably one of the most inspiring Lex interviews. The red line was coming to the end, and I was like , argh, I hope this doesn't finish so soooon!
I’m a huge Paul Rosolie, and I had no idea almost 4 hours have passed. This is my first interview of yours I have watched and I’m a hooked. I am upset with myself for not watching any sooner, but I’m so excited for all the content I have to consume. I do UberEats full time, and I will be consuming a lot of your content in the next coming days. Thank You Lex for what you, and especially for giving Paul a place to get his message out
What a facinating guy Paul is...could listen to his stories all day..great human beng,he's an exapmle all of us should strive to follow
im only 11 minutes in and i had to pause because this guy is blowing my mind with his experience of life. like wow pure raw jungle, no wonder our brains are the way they are bcuz there is so much to process when youre in the real rich life jungle!
Just amazing. Huge respect for that guy and Lex. I truly wish there were more this kind of people.
One of my favourite podcasts - was absolutely enthralled through out whilst walking in the forests of my Austrian home - Paul gave me new eyes in the forest and inspired me to swim in an ice melt pool, whilst instead of striding along the trails I stopped to listen and feel. Incredible podcast! Brought back Incredible memories of a visit to the Panamanian rain forests. Indescribable beauty, but Paul makes one feel like you are in the jungle with him. Thanks Lex 🐾🌳🐍🐞🦜
Im back to watch this because you are actually going. I cant wait to hear everything!
I loved this!!!! One of my favorites for sure! Paul is amazing and a great story teller! I couldn’t stop listening.
To have a passion like this for anything is rare, forget making it your life! This man is living his dream! So happy for him!
Wasn’t it weird how the interviewer had so little emotion at all and is monotone. Said he is interested in technology not conservation right as the guy is pouring his soul into conservation efforts lol seems a lil morbid to me or like he has something to hide deep inside thst he is calculating how to keep a secret
Yy
He is so poetic when describing life in the Amazon. I so wish he could speak with my students…he would be a hero in their eyes.
I have ADD and find it very hard to just sit and listen to podcasts. This is was the first time I was so intrigued, I listen to the whole thing in one swoop. I hope to hear more from him. Fantastic guest.
This has got to be one of my favorite episodes.
Watched the entite JRE episode and I NEEDED more from Paul so now I watched this entire pod RIGHT after the JRE one😂. He is such a good storyteller and surprisingly funny af!
Doing that now... okay. Ima stop

Yesss! Been out to jungle w Paul 4x now - he is an amazing person! Absolutely fascinating and some of the best experiences of my life! JJ and Mohsin and the entire crew are all wonderful people
I like to fall asleep to this episode, the storytelling is very good and excellent for imagining the experience

Super grounding to hear this episode immediately after the discussions about AGI. The contrast and quality of both topics has left my mind spinning, top podcasting Lex, cheers as always!
Wow I love this man. This is one of the most spiritual stories I've heard and I listen to a lot this man proves that we are all connected even the animals in the trees and the rainforest and the cats and the dogs. I Love The Way You Are so descriptive in your stories
