You must not have watched a lot of Rogan then. I used to be a big fan. Not anymore. Mainly because of this exact reason. He only lets certain guest talk uninterrupted. If he thinks he “knows” anything about the subject at hand, he doesn’t shut up. I can’t count how many times he’s derailed a guest halfway into their story just to watch some dumbass video that has literally ZERO to do with the convo at hand.
I love it Joe that you have Roger on your show and you listen to him speak. We all feel part of the conversation. This was such an easy, free flowing, conversation. What a fantastic interview.
That is with most of his guest, Joe Rogan has a way to just ask the right questions and we can all listen and learn something about the guest. I love his podcast.
Roger’s mom reminds me of my dad. He tried to teach us to read every side of the story and understand all sides of the issue before making any conclusions. It’s called critical thinking. Which nowadays is nonexistent in most people. And also respecting other people even when they are different. Just being a good person. My dad was also happily atheist.
@gingerslides a true critical thinker questions everything, including what suits their already established opinions. Also, a critical thinker is always open to change their mind, if is presented with strong arguments.
Glad you had that upbringing and developed critical thinking skills and understand that trying to be respectful is ultimately important as much as possible, because where we disagree doesn't mean we have to hate our neighbour, especially since in this current system 99.9% of us are in the same class and have the same basic needs. Together, we can create a better world. But we cannot do that alone and divided. I've been inspired recently by "One Small Town" initiative by Michael Tellinger. A way to start local, with willing participants, those who are at least on the same wavelength as the others to understanding the reason to create a better alternative system, and will get benefits of community, health and abundance over time the more that volunteer to join.
First time making a comment on a video...I could listen to Joe and Roger for hours. Chills listening...WOW! Thank you Joe for providing the platform and thank you Roger Waters for being an open-book...you are imo one of the greatest people of our time. I have 3 kids who at a very young age were exposed to your music. As they grew in age, I began to share with them my feelings on your lyrics...the deeper meaning beyond the "music/song." As they are now young adults, we reference specific lines from your poetry as we deal with life's challenges. My youngest has even taken one specific line to heart (ten years have got behind us, no one told us when to run, you missed the starting gun) - graduating high school and immediately "getting on with life" by traveling and exploring the country. She continues to have not a worry in the world of conforming to "the machine" and money and material items. She's one of the happiest young adults and I truly believe it's (in part) the impact your lyric(s) had on her at an early stage in her life. To that I say thank you!
Mate, I think anyone who's got pink floyd feels so similar. Some of the music lyrics are life altering and 100% changed the course of my life. DSOTM changed the perspective of my safe and Animals changed my perception of society. And remember, there is no dark side of the moon... its all dark
Greatest people of our time? The man who wrote a letter to Ukraine's president's wife asking her to stop the war? How the f***k does Zelensky stop a war he didn't start? Russia invaded and tried to take the capital Kiev and Roger Waters thinks Ukraine should stop the war? The man is a colossal idiot with obvious sympathies for Putin -- a man who has murdered all of his rivals and murdered over 400 people in his own city of Moscow by blowing up a block of flats, all to increase his political power. You respect a man who supports that?
This is a huge difference between the generations. Roger's mom was a single parent who believed in the importance of educating her children so they could develop their minds and become useful in society
Roger also grew up in a country with a giant social safety net, universal Healthcare and good wages, although still not a meritocracy, a great departure from the crony capitalism we experience in the US
@milesdoyle Sometimes I envy people like you. It must be so relaxing to think like that. Not the slightest bit stimulating or interesting, but definitely relaxing. Ignorance is bliss! 🥰
His stories about his childhood and mother are extremely endearing. When I was growing up, my parents refused to tell "us kids" who they voted for in elections because they wanted us to grow up and make our own decisions without their influence. It meant something.
If they vote based on the values you imparted in them, they'll eventually vote the same, or not vote at all. Ive never voted. My parents continue to vote, but I have a large distrust for the absolute corruption that abounds in the political class. I dont see them as my leaders. Where would they be leading me? Responsibility lies with the individual, and just like an atheist can latch onto ethical and moral actions of those of faith, without the core beliefs, it is that much more possible to be responsible for ones life, rather than to delegate that to some far removed class of politicians.
After 4 years, was it not obvious who they voted for? Serious question bc it would seem that over the course of the term, your parents reactions to what is going on would make it obvious who they voted for. Mine never told me, but boy I sure knew! lol
Funny how all the good advice my father gave me kicked in into my mind after he was gone. At the time advice was given i did not take it seriously but now when i am older it is all coming back to me. Respect your parents people.
My dad died 42 years ago. If I could just say one thing to him , it would be, "You were a wise man, Dad & I wish that I had been a better son...well, that's two things, but you get my drift. 😉
What I got from my father was how to live, not his 'advice'. Much of his advice was not helpful, some hurtful. But what I learned about child psychology is that children don't listen to what their parents say, they pay VERY close attention to what they do. I know of all the sacrifices, the humility, the shit and all that got thrown at him to do the best for his family. This is why they say beaten children still grow up like their parents, its all they know. Fortunately I had none of that, although he was fairly strict, but I remember my sister saying "you know, dad doesn't say 'I love you', but he shows it with what he does". And I thought "no duh". Maybe its a guy thing, but I understood that early on. However, I've been in the world enough to know really shitty parents, namely people who NEVER should have been parents, and no, I wouldn't say they deserve a childs respect. They may deserve some pity because they are fractured people, but thats soemthing else.
There is a concept called Bowen Family Systems that says if you get too enmeshed physically and emotionally with your parents youll never develop a genuine sense of self, you will always be the lil kid w codependent problems. Thats why dudes who are over 30 living w parents are afraid losers. Love your parents if they are your friends and love you. If they are losers, haters, physically abusers, unhealthy dudes like my father then f them. I went no contact w mine after becoming independent and it has been a relief.
@@ricardodelacrvz1400 Yeah you are right not all parents are good i should have point that out in my last sentence the point in my case anyway that i resented my father because he pushed me to work hard while i was i high school always waking me up early to do some mindless work but the interesting thing he never forbid me to stay out late.Later i realized he was trying to teach me responsibility you can party all night but in the morning you will have to work he wasn't a tyrant he was preparing me for real life and i wish i could take back some things i said to him back then. I am sorry for your bad experience and hope it did not leave a permanent mark on your life.
Kudos to Roger’s Mother for raising such a fine man able to navigate the peaks and troughs of life with humility & grace & inspiring others to do the same ❤
What a fantastic interview! Roger is pleasure to listen to on so many topics. Thanks to Rogers Mom for inspiring him to become this amazing human being.
Good character usually exists as a result of good fundamentals in childhood. Conversely, adults who typically display the highest degree of anti social behavior, almost always emerge out of a childhood devoid of parental love and attention. It's Pysch 101.
@@donmackie6086 it was a joke. Mother isn't an ode but a complaint about an over-bearing and suffocating mother (despite it having the melody of a nursery rhyme in the chorus). A lot of people mistake it as a tribute.
I was part of the choir for the “Another brick in the wall 2” when he was perfoming in Moscow back in 2018. He was really nice to all of us backstage while taking photos and giving autographs

Rogan has it all. He can sit and get stoned and have a laugh and pull the piss with some guests and then effortlessly have Roger Waters open up like this. There isn't one talk show in the world with this type of dialogue, honesty and an interviewer listening and not interrupting to get a laugh.
Many of PF songs start to make more sense when you hear Roger talk about his mother. What an honor it is to sit across the table from this Musical genius and have a 2 hour conversation with him.
"Hush now baby don't you cry Mama's gonna make all of your nightmares come true Mama's gonna put all of her fears into you Mama's gonna keep you right here under her wing She won't let you fly but she might let you sing Mama will keep baby cozy and warm Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe Of course Mama's gonna help build the wall."
Saw him my first and probably only time last weekend in Vegas. He puts on a show that is second to none. His set is tight, and professional. The performance is better than most current musicians could ever hope to create. Consider he is 79 years old, and he put on two separate sets with maybe a 15 minute intermission. He was amazing. People give him shit for being political…Consider his dad and grandfather were killed in war. People give him shit for being kind of grouchy and disrespectful of his band mates. I’m just glad they made the albums they did. I wish him and David would have been able to coexist longer.
@@yourewrongabouteverything His "political propaganda stunts" are simply him telling the truth about how the damn billionaire oligarchs and mad dogs of war have taken over our government and have turned it into a corporate-fascist state. If you can't see how corrupt this system is and how it has gotten this bad on account of the greed and excesses of the greedy pigs at the top, funneling all of the wealth and profits to themselves, then you are one of the tiny-brained sheeple who can't see the obvious, even when it smacks you in the face. WTFU. Unregulated capitalism is NOT a good thing. It only allows greed to flourish, and greed is NOT good.
Growing up in the 70s & 80s listening to this gentleman's music, I now realize as a 52 year old man, he was warning us. Of the very worldwide tyranny we're living through right now. This man is not simply a musical icon, he's a global treasure!
The studying all sides part; there's a serious lack of that going on right now. It doesn't help that platforms like Twitter censor "wrong thinkers" in the name of "safety".
Worse than that, the way that all major algorithms are set up, the AI actively prevents you from seeing things you disagree with, or it prioritizes the things that you disagree with but are strawmen from the other side that people you follow are attacking. It is actually harder than ever to get the picture from both sides. I tried to do it during covid, but it was so hard that I would spend hours everyday parsing through information, no one has time for that. Eventually I made up my mind on certain things and gave up. Same with diet/nutrition. I spent 100s of hours, maybe even 1000 hours just trying to understand how I should eat. I never got the answer, I just heard thousands of mutually exclusive arguments, in the end I went with something in the middle, but in general it was a very tiresome, unrewarding process.
I know exactly what he means about the adolescent dread of death. Happened to me when I was 12. One night it got so bad I went to my parents room while they were sleeping and my mom told me “you’re still so young, you have a whole life ahead of you, don’t worry.” Funny this brought up a core memory. I’m 21 now and am so grateful for my youth, sometimes being 60 sounds surreal. Really put age into perspective. Life’s beautiful
Joe! Come on man,. this is so next level. The amount of value and depth and understanding you give, to not just the music community, but also historical and social. Really outstanding/ Love it.
@@NickNicometi you're missing the point, see the humanity in others. Treat others as you would yourself. I found that to be charming yes. You don't have to believe what others believe, but you can still be civil is the point. I'm not a liberal, I'm not an atheist and I'm definitely not a radical but I can appreciate what he is saying
I live near Bradford in West Yorkshire England 🇬🇧 my 95 yo grandma tells me the tales of walking to school in the snow and if you were late the nuns would punish you with the cane. Hard times for so many but I've learnt so many life lessons from my grandma. Another lady who always does the right thing. She always said to me give in life and you will receive
I live up near Bradford and have been doing a good bit of research about PF in the North (Huddersfield, Keighley, Krumlin (near Halifax), Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester, Sheffield and Stockport). Bradford is really really interesting from a PF perspective, because it was also the first place they played a concert after the principle shooting of the Pompeii film in October 1971. Bradford University Student's Union had never experienced ticket forgeries up until that "gig". Roger's incredible Mum, had a teaching placement at the local Grammar School (when it was situated on another site, as opposed to where it stands today). The more Roger talks about her, the more you like him, and love and respect his Mum, what a truly amazing and informed lady she was.
A real man of courage who can talk with empathy in his heart for people in need of social justice. This man can stand tall and more, so-called men, could surely learn from someone who has the guts to do the right thing in this world. God bless Roger Waters and his open clear mind & heart and activism for peace, justice & human dignity!!!
@@MK-zm8vl I don’t understand your implications ?? if you’d like to further explain be careful! Do not mention my family!!! MK why don’t you say your real name!?
@Pat Naughtin Tranquilo... my point was basic, about human nature in general, and in this case, as it applies to the what I see as an unbalanced praise of Roger, "a real man", "so called men" etc... Sometimes its easier to focus on saving the world, than it is one's own interpersonal relationships. I'm a huge fan of Roger and his former Pink Floyd bandmates, but he is no Saint, fallable like the rest of us.
@@MK-zm8vl yeah, I appreciate your comment. I found out a little bit more about Roger. Yeah, he is not perfect by any means. I am though very disturbed by the trends in society these days, for example, where wrongful, in my mind, of what it means to be a man and do righteous good are completely contorted if not reversed. I’m not a big fan of Joe Rogan. And it seems that intelligence is thrown to the wind for being brutally ignorant, sometimes, and violence is preferred to collective dialogue. etc etc I misread your statement prior…. Sometimes lol I am responding to different replies on different posts and honestly think some of my responses flow over into other replies to other Facebook sites OMG.
"There is no 'us' and 'them'; it's an illusion. We are all human beings, and we all have a responsibility to support one another and to discover ways of wresting the power from the very, very few people who control all the cash and all the property." - Roger Waters
Pffft yeah and I was robbed at knife-point last night. Roger you're a dreamer and I love you, but realistically there is no responsibility unless you believe in a God because there is NOBODY TO ANSWER TO if you don't. See that's the part you were afraid to say. "Them" and "Us" developed from "Have" and "Have not" so you should say that to be accurate. Have God? I do.
@@DailyCorvid what does you being robbed have anything to do with the quote? It’s a quote about how we should act as people not how people act. Plus there is no evidence to say that without god you wouldn’t have responsibility.
Well you could argue Roger is one of the people controlling the cash looking at the enormous amount of property he owns and the sheer amount of money he has...
@@DailyCorvid That’s just the same logical fallacy, that deists use when debating the existence of God. One doesn’t need a fictional deity, to fear, in order to have morals.
If you'd heard any other interview of Roger Waters you'd know that he always tells this exact same story. There was nothing new about Joe Rogan interviewing him after 2 hours.
@@GA-gd3wi it’s new for this audience as they rarely see someone from the left so it was worth it. You are right though, he oftentimes is open with whomever he is speaking too. He’s an incredible guest.
The result of America is 'doing the right thing' on the side of democrats. They think they are doing amazing work. That's the issue. Each side no matter what, think they are doing the right thing.
@@the-based-jew6872 I agree with you, and I further believe that both sides are doing what they are told to do. Left wing, Right wing, same bird. Shalom.
This is the kind of heart, soul, and mentality that it takes to write some of the most impactful songs ever written by human hand. For anyone who cares enough to create art for the greater good rather than profitability, here is the blueprint.
theres the thing, you become rich enogh to never want for anything to live a great life. then what. you spend the rest of your riches on people not as fortunate as you. easy.... just like the nice mm said. well it is is, but its not.greed takes over. thanks Roger whom i have made eye contact with at front of stage performance. you Rock,
@@stitcherlives I don't agree with everyone's politics but the music is timeless. Pink Floyd and his solo work are among my favorites to listen to. Music for literally any mood.
It's great when older people can tell you stories from their life from a fairly objective standpoint. Roger is a bit like Paul McCartney in that way, like it really feels like a privilege to hear them talk about how things went down with their band or what life was like when they were growing up.
It’s great so many people here worship him. It’s probably worth mentioning that if he was such a humble guy, David Gilmour and Nick Mason would still be touring with him.
The relationship between his former band mates has nothing to do with you or any of us. If you believe you have the answers to why they don't tour together, I would love to hear what you've learned directly from the remaining members of Pink Floyd or Roger Waters. What have they told you directly? What have you seen for yourself? What have you witnessed that gives you the balls to make such an idiotic statement? Two sides to every story and you've decided to draw conclusions based on nothing you know for sure. Adorable!
@@bradydeangelo284 I’m guessing it was the word “worship” that sent you over the edge. 🙂 I only stated my opinion based on various interviews over the years with his other band mates, after they went their separate ways a long time ago. I’m sorry my conclusion about your lord and savior Roger Waters cut you so deeply. I wish you a speedy recovery in your quest to take offense to everything.
@@ericwanderweg8525 soooo, you weren't there? Cool. Gotcha. 🤣 You sure did get defensive. Haha...talk about triggered. All I did was defend someone who neither of us know. Try to take a deep breath. 🤣🤣🤣
@@bradydeangelo284 I have exactly the same amount of information as you on the matter, which is whatever our trusted sources allow us to see. You’ve come to the conclusion based on what you e seen that Mr Waters is the architect of the entire universe, God incarnate, while I’ve come to the conclusion that he’s a narcissist that his former band mates won’t work with anymore. Carry on with your cult of personality if that’s what your thing is.
@@bradydeangelo284 BTW I can tell by your fierce defense of the man that you’re a fan of his politics, and I’m here to tell you that sorry, real communism has been tried and there’s a body count to prove it.
lyrics are a huge part of music. from bob dylan, john lennon to roger waters. they use words to convey THOUGHTS. simple messages of PEACE. and often that comes with criticism of oppression and injustice. roger excels at it.
What an absolute privilege it is to be able to interview this man. You can see that Joe looks honored for the opportunity to be able to do it and you can see his utmost respect and admiration in his expression and manner towards Roger. It's a great thing to see. Two of the most outstanding men of this age, dare I say... I dare.
Gonna say it out loud. I love him. I love his music. I love his views. Not ashamed. The guy helped for me as much as my parents did. I’m fitted with collar and chain. 😢
What great advice his mother gave him. I also had that daunting moment in my life when I was about 10 and I realised I was going to die, it hit me hard and I had a few nights where I couldn't sleep and my mum was also there for me. Although she may have not been as wise as this mans, a mothers love is a strong thing that can help grow good men. I love the advice she gave him about looking at issues from both sides and studying topics to the nth degree, then to finalize it by concluding that the answer always is easy, you just do the right thing. I'll be passing these words onto my daughter. Fair play old chap 👍🏻.
Wow, this blew my mind! Loved ❤this. I really don’t know much about Roger Waters, but wow.. he may as well of been talking about my own dear Mum, who passed away in 2005. Thanks 🙏 for this.
@@alvodin6197 I think he means the controversial takes on ukraine. It's hard to understand his opinion unless you have intimate knowledge of ukraine and Russian history, as well as the violations of international law that Nato did. Many people conflate him as pro-russia, despite vehemently being against both of the governments involved. He's pro-human, and wants the conflict over as much as the next guy.
The fact that he wanted to tell two stories about his mom and how they affected his life and how much,tells a lot about the kind of man he is. Very rational thinker. Bravo !
@@scroopynooperz9051 What that has to do with Waters? The man is a moron when it comes to history, economics, world-theory. The man believes that left-wing policies help the weak when in fact all they do is burden them! He doesn't even understand the Pareto Principle and talks about "inequalities", a principle whose great example is...himself!
I can relate to some of Rogers stories… dealing with a Vietnam vet for a father and living a undiscovered path to life, I think acceptance is all good until those want to impede your path and acceptance based on your values. This is where we are as a society - polar opposites cannot accept a level of do good anymore.
Imagine this multimillionaire success story since the 70s is spending his time as an activist for the world. Exposing the atrocities of corporatism and unjust regimes like apartheid Israel. What a great gift we all have in Mr. Waters. Thank you Roger.
Thank you Joe and Roger for sharing the wisdom in this video. Simple rule to live by my mother taught me: Do the right thing not to escape punishment or to receive reward but simply because it's the right thing to do.
The "right thing" is an entirely subjective matter. Understanding that is fundamental to detailed analytical thought. With respect intended, your understanding is very basic. Some people think the "right thing to do" involves things that other people think are horrible things to do. A lot of people you and I would consider to be quite evil thought they were doing the right thing. You don't have to go back many hundreds of years to find populations of people who thought that sexual contact with children was perfectly okay. In fact, this world contains many countries in 2022 where certain people still hold those views. I think they are wrong and I am sure you do to, but they are quite sure they are right. Waters is a bigot.
Joe can you please do an episode or even a part of it speaking about us Iranians and the situation we are in fighting with the Islamic Republic regime, and raise the awareness about it even more, because in this time, we need more than ever to be heard, that would be very helpful, thank you sir.
Did you listen to the whole show? Roger talked at length about the youth chorus in Oakland when he played a concert there and it was so powerful I teared up. Wonder if that’s the same show you saw?
You know it's funny to me that both Joe and Roger find themselves frequently accused of toxicity by bitter college lesbian types, yet right here you see Joe effortlessly coax the incredible depth and humanity right out of Roger.
When I was 21, I was obsessed with Pink Floyd, I learned all their songs, almost started a Floyd tribute band, had the posters, and I worshipped Roger Waters, I thought he was a musical god.I'm 63 now, and I'm so happy he's still doing interviews, because back then, zero interviews, few photos, it was so hard to get stuff, now he's everywhere. LEGEND
This man has been raised and worked hard to deliver a message to people. Very interesting and powerful message. If it's to much to accept, I get that. But respect and have love for all
* I hated school so much.. and when I heard "Another Brick In The Wall"... that was it... The Wall was so revolutionary to me because it showed so clearly -- via music -- how we divide and separate each other and become so deeply alienated, and in turn we think we are so much stronger for doing so!... but we're not; this only breeds addiction and even delusional meglomania. "Tear down the wall!" is the rallying cry we should all strive for. The ego is that wall.
What I love about Joe Rogan vs every other interviewer is Joe actually lets the guests speak. He doesn’t try and interrupt or talk over them. And Waters is a very interesting person to get to know. Very intriguing.

Ive never voted. My parents continue to vote, but I have a large distrust for the absolute corruption that abounds in the political class. I dont see them as my leaders. Where would they be leading me? Responsibility lies with the individual, and just like an atheist can latch onto ethical and moral actions of those of faith, without the core beliefs, it is that much more possible to be responsible for ones life, rather than to delegate that to some far removed class of politicians.
Same here. My Dad always told me his vote was a personal decision. I take that to heart.
After 4 years, was it not obvious who they voted for? Serious question bc it would seem that over the course of the term, your parents reactions to what is going on would make it obvious who they voted for. Mine never told me, but boy I sure knew! lol
Obviously not lefties then!
Ridiculous
Funny how all the good advice my father gave me kicked in into my mind after he was gone. At the time advice was given i did not take it seriously but now when i am older it is all coming back to me. Respect your parents people.
I think that's a lot of us. A lot of us were just young and foolish.
My dad died 42 years ago. If I could just say one thing to him , it would be, "You were a wise man, Dad & I wish that I had been a better son...well, that's two things, but you get my drift. 😉
What I got from my father was how to live, not his 'advice'. Much of his advice was not helpful, some hurtful. But what I learned about child psychology is that children don't listen to what their parents say, they pay VERY close attention to what they do. I know of all the sacrifices, the humility, the shit and all that got thrown at him to do the best for his family. This is why they say beaten children still grow up like their parents, its all they know. Fortunately I had none of that, although he was fairly strict, but I remember my sister saying "you know, dad doesn't say 'I love you', but he shows it with what he does". And I thought "no duh". Maybe its a guy thing, but I understood that early on. However, I've been in the world enough to know really shitty parents, namely people who NEVER should have been parents, and no, I wouldn't say they deserve a childs respect. They may deserve some pity because they are fractured people, but thats soemthing else.
There is a concept called Bowen Family Systems that says if you get too enmeshed physically and emotionally with your parents youll never develop a genuine sense of self, you will always be the lil kid w codependent problems. Thats why dudes who are over 30 living w parents are afraid losers. Love your parents if they are your friends and love you. If they are losers, haters, physically abusers, unhealthy dudes like my father then f them. I went no contact w mine after becoming independent and it has been a relief.
@@ricardodelacrvz1400 Yeah you are right not all parents are good i should have point that out in my last sentence the point in my case anyway that i resented my father because he pushed me to work hard while i was i high school always waking me up early to do some mindless work but the interesting thing he never forbid me to stay out late.Later i realized he was trying to teach me responsibility you can party all night but in the morning you will have to work he wasn't a tyrant he was preparing me for real life and i wish i could take back some things i said to him back then. I am sorry for your bad experience and hope it did not leave a permanent mark on your life.
Kudos to Roger’s Mother for raising such a fine man able to navigate the peaks and troughs of life with humility & grace & inspiring others to do the same ❤
He hates Jewish people.
What a fantastic interview! Roger is pleasure to listen to on so many topics. Thanks to Rogers Mom for inspiring him to become this amazing human being.
Amazing human being are u fking for real.
I agree, best interview I've seen Roger give. People say what they want about Rogan, but the people he interviews seem to trust him and they open up.
You should read some of horrible views this "amazing" person spreads...

It's crazy on one podcast he has normal people, on others he has racist anti-semites
a man who show up his love for his mother, openly, is a man of honor
@Miles Doyle already have 👍
Right on!
Of course
This man is a legend. Hes a living legend.
That was a great story from a man who truly respects and loves his mother. She sounds like she was an incredible person.
Good character usually exists as a result of good fundamentals in childhood. Conversely, adults who typically display the highest degree of anti social behavior, almost always emerge out of a childhood devoid of parental love and attention. It's Pysch 101.
She's so incredible she will tell roger when they will try to break his balls
@@donmackie6086 it was a joke. Mother isn't an ode but a complaint about an over-bearing and suffocating mother (despite it having the melody of a nursery rhyme in the chorus).
A lot of people mistake it as a tribute.
Great Story Roger!!!I am still pondering and applying the Nuggets of Wisdom from my parents 54 yrs later!!
@@donmackie6086 Absolute Truth!
I was part of the choir for the “Another brick in the wall 2” when he was perfoming in Moscow back in 2018. He was really nice to all of us backstage while taking photos and giving autographs

His mum was such a brilliant lady, imagine if more mothers were like her...this world would've been a better place

Rogan has it all. He can sit and get stoned and have a laugh and pull the piss with some guests and then effortlessly have Roger Waters open up like this. There isn't one talk show in the world with this type of dialogue, honesty and an interviewer listening and not interrupting to get a laugh.
Many of PF songs start to make more sense when you hear Roger talk about his mother. What an honor it is to sit across the table from this Musical genius and have a 2 hour conversation with him.
"Hush now baby don't you cry
Mama's gonna make all of your nightmares come true
Mama's gonna put all of her fears into you
Mama's gonna keep you right here under her wing
She won't let you fly but she might let you sing
Mama will keep baby cozy and warm
Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe
Of course Mama's gonna help build the wall."
Saw him my first and probably only time last weekend in Vegas.
He puts on a show that is second to none.
His set is tight, and professional.
The performance is better than most current musicians could ever hope to create.
Consider he is 79 years old, and he put on two separate sets with maybe a 15 minute intermission. He was amazing.
People give him shit for being political…Consider his dad and grandfather were killed in war.
People give him shit for being kind of grouchy and disrespectful of his band mates.
I’m just glad they made the albums they did. I wish him and David would have been able to coexist longer.
For a second I thought David had died 😅
I was like "WHAT?"
you're joking right? his shows suck now he hasn't been good since the band left him for his political propaganda stunts
@@yourewrongabouteverything yeah you’re right.
Great show!
@@yourewrongabouteverything His "political propaganda stunts" are simply him telling the truth about how the damn billionaire oligarchs and mad dogs of war have taken over our government and have turned it into a corporate-fascist state. If you can't see how corrupt this system is and how it has gotten this bad on account of the greed and excesses of the greedy pigs at the top, funneling all of the wealth and profits to themselves, then you are one of the tiny-brained sheeple who can't see the obvious, even when it smacks you in the face. WTFU. Unregulated capitalism is NOT a good thing. It only allows greed to flourish, and greed is NOT good.
Growing up in the 70s & 80s listening to this gentleman's music, I now realize as a 52 year old man, he was warning us. Of the very worldwide tyranny we're living through right now.
This man is not simply a musical icon, he's a global treasure!
global treasure my ass!! He's been an apologist of socialist regimes for decades
not being roger's number one fan, this video helps me understand a little better why he is the way he is. rock on roger.
I don’t care what anyone says about Roger, I love him and I recognize that he is a rare, treasured soul.
Roger Waters in a broadbased informed gifted musician. Very very talented in so many ways. Thanks Roger for giving so much.
Mother should I trust the government?
The studying all sides part; there's a serious lack of that going on right now. It doesn't help that platforms like Twitter censor "wrong thinkers" in the name of "safety".
Almost everyone thinks they have studied all sides. Him saying that isn't special.
The fact is you'd gladly censor any real right wing, conservativism is a liberal ideology
Worse than that, the way that all major algorithms are set up, the AI actively prevents you from seeing things you disagree with, or it prioritizes the things that you disagree with but are strawmen from the other side that people you follow are attacking. It is actually harder than ever to get the picture from both sides. I tried to do it during covid, but it was so hard that I would spend hours everyday parsing through information, no one has time for that. Eventually I made up my mind on certain things and gave up. Same with diet/nutrition. I spent 100s of hours, maybe even 1000 hours just trying to understand how I should eat. I never got the answer, I just heard thousands of mutually exclusive arguments, in the end I went with something in the middle, but in general it was a very tiresome, unrewarding process.
lol study all sides is definitely something waters does not do
@Manish Mims If he is then he hasnt studied shit.
I know exactly what he means about the adolescent dread of death. Happened to me when I was 12. One night it got so bad I went to my parents room while they were sleeping and my mom told me “you’re still so young, you have a whole life ahead of you, don’t worry.” Funny this brought up a core memory. I’m 21 now and am so grateful for my youth, sometimes being 60 sounds surreal. Really put age into perspective. Life’s beautiful

Don't conflate the musical genius with his world-view which is absolutely shallow and ignorant.
The world can thank his parents especially his mother for raising a music legend and a great humanitarian.

He is ridiculously philosophical, he should be discussing facts about the Ukrainian \ Russo war not reminiscing his childhood...

I live near Bradford in West Yorkshire England 🇬🇧 my 95 yo grandma tells me the tales of walking to school in the snow and if you were late the nuns would punish you with the cane. Hard times for so many but I've learnt so many life lessons from my grandma. Another lady who always does the right thing. She always said to me give in life and you will receive
I live up near Bradford and have been doing a good bit of research about PF in the North (Huddersfield, Keighley, Krumlin (near Halifax), Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester, Sheffield and Stockport). Bradford is really really interesting from a PF perspective, because it was also the first place they played a concert after the principle shooting of the Pompeii film in October 1971. Bradford University Student's Union had never experienced ticket forgeries up until that "gig". Roger's incredible Mum, had a teaching placement at the local Grammar School (when it was situated on another site, as opposed to where it stands today). The more Roger talks about her, the more you like him, and love and respect his Mum, what a truly amazing and informed lady she was.
A real man of courage who can talk with empathy in his heart for people in need of social justice. This man can stand tall and more, so-called men, could surely learn from someone who has the guts to do the right thing in this world. God bless Roger Waters and his open clear mind & heart and activism for peace, justice & human dignity!!!
The right thing in the world? That's alot to take on, but maybe that's the point... how about the people closest to you...?
@@MK-zm8vl I don’t understand your implications ?? if you’d like to further explain be careful! Do not mention my family!!! MK why don’t you say your real name!?
@Pat Naughtin Tranquilo... my point was basic, about human nature in general, and in this case, as it applies to the what I see as an unbalanced praise of Roger, "a real man", "so called men" etc... Sometimes its easier to focus on saving the world, than it is one's own interpersonal relationships. I'm a huge fan of Roger and his former Pink Floyd bandmates, but he is no Saint, fallable like the rest of us.
@@MK-zm8vl yeah, I appreciate your comment. I found out a little bit more about Roger. Yeah, he is not perfect by any means. I am though very disturbed by the trends in society these days, for example, where wrongful, in my mind, of what it means to be a man and do righteous good are completely contorted if not reversed. I’m not a big fan of Joe Rogan. And it seems that intelligence is thrown to the wind for being brutally ignorant, sometimes, and violence is preferred to collective dialogue. etc etc I misread your statement prior…. Sometimes lol I am responding to different replies on different posts and honestly think some of my responses flow over into other replies to other Facebook sites OMG.
"There is no 'us' and 'them'; it's an illusion. We are all human beings, and we all have a responsibility to support one another and to discover ways of wresting the power from the very, very few people who control all the cash and all the property."
- Roger Waters
Pffft yeah and I was robbed at knife-point last night. Roger you're a dreamer and I love you, but realistically there is no responsibility unless you believe in a God because there is NOBODY TO ANSWER TO if you don't.
See that's the part you were afraid to say. "Them" and "Us" developed from "Have" and "Have not" so you should say that to be accurate. Have God? I do.
@@DailyCorvid what does you being robbed have anything to do with the quote? It’s a quote about how we should act as people not how people act. Plus there is no evidence to say that without god you wouldn’t have responsibility.
Well you could argue Roger is one of the people controlling the cash looking at the enormous amount of property he owns and the sheer amount of money he has...

He didn't say a word all podcast. The brick wall behind him could've done the same job.

It's great when older people can tell you stories from their life from a fairly objective standpoint. Roger is a bit like Paul McCartney in that way, like it really feels like a privilege to hear them talk about how things went down with their band or what life was like when they were growing up.

It’s great so many people here worship him. It’s probably worth mentioning that if he was such a humble guy, David Gilmour and Nick Mason would still be touring with him.
The relationship between his former band mates has nothing to do with you or any of us. If you believe you have the answers to why they don't tour together, I would love to hear what you've learned directly from the remaining members of Pink Floyd or Roger Waters.

lyrics are a huge part of music. from bob dylan, john lennon to roger waters. they use words to convey THOUGHTS. simple messages of PEACE. and often that comes with criticism of oppression and injustice. roger excels at it.
A great deal of heart and love in this...lovely words...do the right thing...always x
What an absolute privilege it is to be able to interview this man. You can see that Joe looks honored for the opportunity to be able to do it and you can see his utmost respect and admiration in his expression and manner towards Roger. It's a great thing to see. Two of the most outstanding men of this age, dare I say... I dare.
Gonna say it out loud. I love him. I love his music. I love his views. Not ashamed. The guy helped for me as much as my parents did. I’m fitted with collar and chain. 😢
Loved all their albums especially the early stuff !!! 🙏🌷🙏
I do too. I was thinking a day or so ago about his age. He’s very with it and fit still. But I actually got a little teary at that thought.
I adopted R as my father, and he’s always giving such great advice and being example. Thank you for the interview!
What great advice his mother gave him. I also had that daunting moment in my life when I was about 10 and I realised I was going to die, it hit me hard and I had a few nights where I couldn't sleep and my mum was also there for me. Although she may have not been as wise as this mans, a mothers love is a strong thing that can help grow good men.
I love the advice she gave him about looking at issues from both sides and studying topics to the nth degree, then to finalize it by concluding that the answer always is easy, you just do the right thing. I'll be passing these words onto my daughter.
Fair play old chap 👍🏻.

Pearls of Wisdom, Truth and Goodness. A short video well-worth absorbing and acting upon. Thank you Mr Roger Waters.

@@NickNicometi Yes, but we all have inner guidence and some of us even had/have good guidence from elders.
@@NickNicometi Rogan probably asked him not to mention any facts to avoid losing sponsors.
The "right thing" is an entirely subjective matter. Understanding that is fundamental to detailed analytical thought. With respect intended, your understanding is very basic. Some people think the "right thing to do" involves things that other people think are horrible things to do. A lot of people you and I would consider to be quite evil thought they were doing the right thing. You don't have to go back many hundreds of years to find populations of people who thought that sexual contact with children was perfectly okay. In fact, this world contains many countries in 2022 where certain people still hold those views. I think they are wrong and I am sure you do to, but they are quite sure they are right. Waters is a bigot.

My son and I saw him in LA 10 days ago ❤great show
I saw him in Oakland in 2015. One of the very best damn concerts I've ever seen. Truly honored to have witnessed it
Did you listen to the whole show? Roger talked at length about the youth chorus in Oakland when he played a concert there and it was so powerful I teared up. Wonder if that’s the same show you saw?
I wish he had more people with this sentiment on his show, reminds me of the old days of his show
You know it's funny to me that both Joe and Roger find themselves frequently accused of toxicity by bitter college lesbian types, yet right here you see Joe effortlessly coax the incredible depth and humanity right out of Roger.
When I was 21, I was obsessed with Pink Floyd, I learned all their songs, almost started a Floyd tribute band, had the posters, and I worshipped Roger Waters, I thought he was a musical god.I'm 63 now, and I'm so happy he's still doing interviews, because back then, zero interviews, few photos, it was so hard to get stuff, now he's everywhere. LEGEND
The mystery made it better back then… when you had to buy a magazine to see what a band looked liked
This man has been raised and worked hard to deliver a message to people. Very interesting and powerful message. If it's to much to accept, I get that. But respect and have love for all
It's a moronic message and a shallow and flawed view of history, socioeconomics, politics, etc.
"Socialism for thee, not for me".
good stuff - thanks!
Dear Rodger!
You have a beautiful heart and soul!
God bless you!
