I hear you. Here's a guy who's a fantastic comic. He's also normal,married, no substance abuse or addictions ,unless you count his car and motorcycle collection .
Met Jay once. I was at a place called Ed and Vern's Rock Store. It was a little general store/six pack shop,, in Cornell canyon near Malibu. On any given weekend there was a sea of motorcycles and custom cars in and out of the parking lot. You could get a long neck Bud for 1.50 in 1989, while Malibu bars were charging 7 bucks for the same beer. Anyhow, Jay pulled in, in a 1925 Buick maybe? Something strange like that. Well the standing rule out there is; If you see stars out enjoying themselves, don't act like a tourist, leave them alone. Well, he was alone. He walked into the place, bought a beer, walked outside and stood there in the crowd. And everyone ignored him. Which he knew meant that everyone was just trying to respect his privacy but at the same time, he drove that car out there to show it off and was starting to look a little out of place. So, I looked at my buddy who was out that day with our bikes and said, "Oh this isn't right." I walked over and said, "Beautiful car Jay. What is that exactly?" He immediately brightened up and smiled. He introduced himself to my friend and asked us if we would like to check it out. We did and he took us over and showed us every inch while he told us all about it. That dude is as real as it gets. He enjoys who he is and what he does but he likes just being Jay too. Extremely pleasant to converse with.
@@TheSteve1126 sure wish you were the real Vince. There's a lot I'd like to tell him. Such as I was the biggest XFL fan the first time and waited 20 years for it to come back. I'm in Pittsburgh. I had season Tix in 2020 in New York. I had already drove up and attended the first two home games and was about to go up for the 3rd. Broke my heart in a way I can barely describe. If you were Vince I'd tell you 3rd times a charm and don't let the bastards keep you down. There are legal ways to sell that league to restart it and then get back ownership of it. You have an audience waiting and we are ready.
@@MasonVGates If he did I would be astounded and it would only have stuck in his mind for the sheer oddness of the situation. But that stuff has to happen to famous people out there all the time. I was on my way back from a Steelers Browns game in Cleveland, going back to Pittsburgh and we stopped at a rest stop that had a McDonalds. There were 4 Steelers in there, Joey Porter was one and they went through the same thing. They had just won on the road in double overtime and they wanted to have a fuss made over them but no one wanted to be the asshole that started the chaos. And it got a little weird and again I found myself being the one willing to say hi and then others joined in.
People like to shit on Leno, but the fact that he started at the bottom, and still works clubs shows he is a real, legit comic. He's got a million great stories and he's just a good guy
@@juliopujols7708 Cause he was in charge of all that, right? Cause he didn't get fired and replaced by Conan while being #1? Ah it's because he obviously had Carson wrapped around his finger who did whatever Jay wanted to bypass Letterman (but you don't mention Rivers). It wasn't Conan who panicked NBC by demanding the Tonight show or he was leaving? Jay didn't gracefully step aside when Conan demanded his show? You people believe everything you are fed. Even when you saw the opposite happen with your own eyes, the moment they tell you what 'really happened' you just eat it up.
Ive watched this a couple of times and think it’s one of the best episodes of this podcast. Jay is an absolute gem, fantastic story teller and insanely interesting life

3rd time in years for me. Between this interview, others Leno has done and his book I read (highly recommend it - "Leading with my chin"), I have heard so many of his stories. Guy has lived an amazing life. PS When Leno left the Tonight Show, that was the end of late night TV for me.
Jay's a genuinely good guy and deserves all the success he has. He put in so much work before he was the face of late night america. I'm glad he's finally doing what he loves, he seems in really good spirits.
Joe, get Leno back on, this was by far my favorite podcast you've done. Jay is so laid back and smooth and such a fantastic teacher, it was great hearing about the art of comedy.
Met Jay around 10 years ago, within a couple minutes of talking to him, felt like we had been friends for a long time. A very down to earth and genuine person. Of course we were talking about cars & motorcycles. Aloha.
I know they always ruin it with who they vote for shatup do your job dont piss off half your fan base stupid aka dezero bob used to like him now cant stand his dum ass mouth hes just like trump cant shutup ha ha ha ha new yorkers
Must watch him on Maher. He thinks Biden's doing a good job. Had dinner with Austin. The one who secretly hid out in hospital as our world falls apart. I would be SO delighted to have just ONE celeb to stay completely out of either side of politics. There's so many things to talk about as he shows here without politics involved. He's very low key with what he says, but he's right there on the far left. I would the same if he were on the far right. Just sick of politics.

I’ve seen Jay twice back in the 90s. He was the funniest best comedian I’ve ever seen. He keeps you crying laughing throughout the entire show, at a quick pace. Zero boring filler shit at all.
I'm 51, at 17 I called in to the Larry King show and spoke to Jay Leno, who was the guest. Jay is one of the few sincere leaders a young person trusts. Sharp and unselfish. Concerned about others. I learn something every time I hear him speak.
+TreSneaky Do you know if he did Duane Ludwig and Tj Dillashaw recently, after the Barao rematch? One of these days i saw somewhere that he did but i can´t find it at all. Would love to see that one.
maverick buckley first thing my prof said in law school was "if youre a white male who only speaks English you arent going to get a job" How encouraging?
@@mskehan19 now anyone can create videos where as before it took thousands of dollars in equipment. People can sell online instead of renting for $1200/month. We have more chances now than ever Instead people look at the past and say "damn I would have succeeded.. ..if I lived back then"
@Kevin J I dont understand what you are trying to say. Are you arguing the metric to success is RUclips trending ? Regardless, my point is more a general one. The average person has tremendously more access to tools that allow them to pursue their interests at an affordable level. I think people are lazy and like fantasizing about how productive they 'totally would be man' if only they were born 50 years ago and not today.
Jays stand up is the best I've seen. You can tell he only still does it bcus he loves comedy and the audience. Also sent my dad an autographed picture after, pure class.
My autoshop teacher was amazing! He thought us everything! Not just cars!How to fill out job applications, resumes, how to balance a check book. One of our main assignments was a mock job interview with him, and you got the job or you didn't. He did that because no one else was... He knew most of us were never interested in going to college, but he still put more students into trade schools in many different feilds! More than ALL of the students who went to college or JC's combined, and the completion rates weren't even close to the trade school grads, including myself. Unfortunately for our town the school hated his "style of teaching" and eventually fired him... It was a good thing overall... He was able to move to a bigger school near by so he helps more kids now, many of whom are transferring from our town to have him as a teacher. As long as you tried, put in actual effort, in the shop, and classroom, you got an A. I learned more about life than cars in his classes over 4 years, and I learned A LOT about cars! A good teacher is worth their weight in gold!!
Really wish there was some kind of auto shop class in my high school. Although I try learn as much as I can, Its hard to learn the intricate details of how a car works without a knowledgeable and accessible teacher.
It's interesting you say that cuz I had a mechanics teacher who helped teach me, and probably most others, self respect and responsibility in one simple way. If you were late he'd ask if you got a late slip, so weird to think of those now lol, I'd say "yes" and go to show it to him and he says "It's ok, I trust you." And that meant allot, cuz it was my 1st taste of someone in authority actively showing confidence in me, and that GAVE me confidence. He did a few other things too but that was my lasting memory of him. Even the usual trouble makers respected him and behaved in his class.
Totally accurate, too. Years ago I knew a much older guy that was confirmed in the mafia. He was always very nice, but you just got this vibe like this guy can just mentally collapse at any moment. There's no "off" switch in his brain. Like if most of us, if we got into a fight, if we knocked someone out that would be the end of it. This dude would've grabbed a brick and just kept hitting your face until it was mush. I always did my best to end conversations and move on. Even in his 60's this guy would probably do some damage to me. He'd be all in
As a former A-class professional interviewer, Jay Leno himself interviews quite magnificently! Loved the time and place Leno took us to, loved his charisma and fascinating context. One of Rogans best shows ever! I just really overall loved this one. Bravo!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I'm not a super regular viewer of the JRE, but I'm super glad I stopped by for this one. Absolutely excellent episode. I just wish it was the normal 3 hours long. I could listen to Jay tell those old school stories for as long as he would tell them.
Maxwelhse fuck my bad I accidently pressed reply. fucking stupid app,I have fat fingers and every I'm touching the screen I apparently press reply on youtube
Great interview. Jay's always been a smart, charming guy, and I love hearing his thoughts on stuff and his stories. I wish he'd write a book. Late night has really gone downhill since he left the airwaves.
This was really, REALLY a great episode, these two together was an interesting treat. They seem to have great natural common ground between the Boston Days etc..and just a comfortable laid back vibe between each other. I also always had a huge appreciation for Jay’s Automobile Collection and Passion for it. Great Stuff!
Jay is a genuine decent guy. He used to come into my work a lot and of course EVERYONE recognized him. They would yell "hey jay!" and he would wave and keep walking. He never brushed anyone off.
He's like Joe Biden but his file cabinet of a brain still opens up freely. 😂 Joe Bidens brains like them old file cabinets that get stuck and go side ways when pulling them open 😂
@FBI @Google mtn neither of them should be running a McDonald's let alone a country.i know that Joe is losing it and I'm not a conservative. I know trump is a moron I'm not a liberal. What the fuck does either one have to do with Jay Leno being funny. The way you fucking people are so divided you might as well write your comments on a piece of paper and bury it in your yard, because you aren't changing any minds, you're illustrating how petty you are.
Jay Leno prefers regular non-Hollywood people. His garage is not too far from our home and the neighborhood bumps into him all the time at regular take out joints, in traffic, or he’ll just be cruising in his vintage cars, etc…He’s always super nice, goes out of his way to make sure he says hi back, he’s just a normal nice person to all of us broke ass people.
Call me ignorant, but until a couple of weeks ago I had never heard of Joe Rogan. Since then I have watched several of his podcasts and I have found them to be extremely intelligent and captivating. Some of his interviews, like with Jay Leno and Jim Jefferies are simply astounding. You don't know these people at all unless you have seen these interviews. Joe Rogan, you are amazing!
Yep. Same experience except I knew him from UFC. Best interviews going. Same quality as, say, Michael Parkinson in the UK, but the podcast allows him a lot more time to explore.
Worst betrayal for a woman to do to a man besides cheating is allowing him to raise someone else’s child under the impression it’s his. Nasty thing to do to a guy.
Jbog07 theirs a reason you're not married and its hilarious to read how black and white you think the world is, you don't just get a DNA test especially if you want to keep this theoretical "wife".. And really you think you have the resources to hire someone to check on your wife lolol the poor women that marries you.. I would suggest you stop taking advice from your dumbass drinking buddies.
Jay Leno would be quite tough in a fistfight cause his face is so big & heavy and leathery which is perfect for absorbing punches. I wouldn't fight him. It would take dozens of hard punches to make that face hurt enough for him to tap out.
The amount of comedy history I absorbed from Jay Leno is crazy. Now I understand why, although he's extremely hated, he's also really respected. Also, hearing about his early jobs explains his cutthroat mentality.
Very true! he even shined a different light on Sanders! (where he is usually the bumbling old guy on the news, he instead had the breathing space and time to articulate his ideas) Joe has an amazing medium and huge audience for anyone to have their say! (and get asked if they have taken DMT)
Jay held a clinic on how to succeed through perseverance and hard work. You deserve your place amongst all of the other comedy greats. Intelligent speaker too. Thanks for the great interview.
Jay is a plethora of information and he’s so grounded, I wish I was friends with him.he’s just so down to earth and I can listen to him for hours. Joe is a favorite too, please bring Jay back on Joe, one of the best shows
I AM 93 YEARS OLD, LOVE JAY LENO ,WATCHED HIM EVERY NIGHT, WROTE HIM A LETTER WHEN HE WAS LEAVING THE TONIGHT SHOW ,REALLY THOUGHT HE WOULD WRITE BACK, HES SO REAL,.DIDNT HEAR FROM HIM HAVE.. NOT WATCHED! A LATE SHOW SINCE HE LEFT DONT CARE FOR JOE AND HIS BAD LANGUAGE. , JAY LENO IS THE REAL DEAL FIRST TIME I HAD EVER WRITTEN A LETTER TO A CELEBRITY. GREAT INTERVIEW.
His knowledge of automobiles and all things transportation is second to none. Although he did poorly is school Jay is extremely bright and has a memory like a steel trap.
Please can somebody point me in the right direction ??? I am looking for some advise on what Rogan podcasts to watch ive seen every 1 with joey Diaz on every Eddie Bravo and Alex Jones and mainly all the big names so im looking for advice on ones that were good with a person who is not that famous or not famous at all.
I just think people love Jay Leno because like he said you don't know his politics and he's a cool guy that everyone wants there friend to be. He is what people call "people person".
Conan and Letterman are both primadonna, cookie-cutter celebrities. Jay is the complete polar opposite of that. Jay is such an interesting guy.... what's interesting about Conan or Letterman? Nothing. Absolutely nothing.
This was a fun one. As a 36 year old, I only know Jay Leno as the "tonight show guy". I watched it for years as a teenager, and always just thought of his monologue as kind of g rated humor that wasn't really my thing but it of course always worked for the show, and it's how that format works. I had no idea how much he had worked before or any of the amazing history he casually details in this interview. Really enjoyed hearing him talk from start to finish and gained A LOT of respect for him (which is a phenomenon that seems to happen often on Joe's show, ha ha). Only knock I'd have on him after the episode is you could tell he wasn't the best listener or maybe better put he just wanted to talk mostly because when Joe would mention something ("I was a Boy Scout in New Hampshire also",etc...) he wouldn't bite on it at all. Anyway really loved hearing Jay talk and some of those stories were craaaazy!!
I can't watch a single one of them. Late night shows used to be so good but now they are just cringe inducing junk. Craig Ferguson and Conan were the end of an era.
Just watched it through for the second time, one of your best shows. Joe, great job getting Leno out of character for an authentic critique of the industry and the art.
Jay Leno is the most misunderstood guy in show business. I've seen a lot of people trash that guy and it's always for reasons that don't even make sense. He's like that guy in high school who was nice to everyone and then got bullied because he never did anything shitty or mean.
scarygary5678 Sir, you are talking to someone who has worked in the entertainment business in Los Angeles for almost 20 years. I heard all the stories, I know most of the big agents. I seriously doubt I need to do any research. Let me guess, your knowledge comes from listening to Howard Stern and Conan O'Brien fans?
Justin: Both Leno & Conan were basically pawns to the Networks. They were competing for positions. The network wanted to make sure someone was ready to take over the Tonight Show when Leno left & they promised it to Conan before Leno was ready to leave. Leno did leave but Conan wasn't getting the ratings. Had Conan done well enough, that would have been it but ratings went down & honestly, he was awkward. He would have probably grown into it but the network decided they wanted Leno back. That's a drastically simplified version but point is, they were simply competing for The Tonight Show & Leno won. That entire fiasco was the network's fault. They were simply competing for the job.
Jay Leno would be quite tough in a fistfight cause his face is so big & heavy and leathery which is perfect for absorbing punches. I wouldn't fight him. It would take dozens of hard punches to make that face hurt enough for him to tap out.
Man i used to hate on the guy because I like conan, such a silly way of living right? This type of podcast enhance your way of looking life in different ways
Jay's superpower is his insane memory... that's so rewarding to be able to just draw up endless stories, anecdotes, jokes on demand. plus, joe is very attentive and you can tell he figured out at the beginning that he is just there to listen and navigate the conversation
Joe has this amazing gift to have a completely organic interview which in reality comes off like a casual chat and he always gets the best outta these guys. Jay is too fuckin cool great conversation.
Jay Leno is sooo sharp!!! He has a really fast and sharp mind. I was once part of his live audience at the tonight show and got really impressed with his persona. Loved the "simple" man!
Its pretty crazy that Leno is worth hundreds of millions and was seen by millions every night for 20 years yet still basically has the mindset of a road comedian
I grew up with Leno, (on tv)and I am glad he kept it clean for the most part. No drama, genuinely cool guy. He would more than likely eat lunch with you if you played your cards right.
Humbleness is a gift from God But also probably trying to fill the void of never having children what's the point of having money with no one to spend it on
I’ve been a Jay Leno fan my entire life. When I was little I had no interest in watching Letterman but rarely missed Jay. Headlines was my favorite. Glad to know he’s as good of a guy as I always hoped.
PLEASE get Jay Leno back on for a longer podcast, he is one of the best.
Well it’s Jay Leno. He’s pretty good at talk shows.
He is one of the best!
I will try to get him BACK for you for 1,000$-3000$ dollars. let me know when u got the money
I hear you. Here's a guy who's a fantastic comic. He's also normal,married, no substance abuse or addictions ,unless you count his car and motorcycle collection .

Me too
It's such a fascinating look into the early history of stand-up comedy. Definitely wasn't expecting that going into it.
I come to this particular JRE every year or so. It's 2 comics talking about other comics. Good clean fun.
3rd time in years for me. Between this interview, others Leno has done and his book I read (highly recommend it - "Leading with my chin"), I have heard so many of his stories. Guy has lived an amazing life. PS When Leno left the Tonight Show, that was the end of late night TV for me.

Agreed, Jay's an excellent storyteller with impressive recall and impressions..
This might be the best JRE episode I’ve watched. I’ve never been a huge Leno fan, but the stories and lessons here were amazing.
Hands down one of Joe's best guest. More authentic than I expected.
I'm not the biggest Leno fan but he's entertaining here, engaging and authentic.
Met Jay around 10 years ago, within a couple minutes of talking to him, felt like we had been friends for a long time. A very down to earth and genuine person. Of course we were talking about cars & motorcycles. Aloha.
Damn that was a fast hour. Jay is a really good story teller with every story it seems like I was there living through the moments with him.
Jay Leno has a great voice for radio. I could listen to him rambling for hours.
Marachenka great face for radio too
Never realized that until I read your comment. I just sat through this whole thing.
I don't usually do that. Your absolutely right.
@@authenticsportsandhobbysho2833 🤣
Yes, and he is very good with timing too.. I would use a tie microphone tho, keeps moving away from the mic
@@authenticsportsandhobbysho2833 I was going to say that, so...my work is done here
Jay Leno is a fine example to those in Hollywood, in how to age graceful and dignified, and having fun doing it. And staying out of politics.
*gracefully
Well said
I know they always ruin it with who they vote for shatup do your job dont piss off half your fan base stupid aka dezero bob used to like him now cant stand his dum ass mouth hes just like trump cant shutup ha ha ha ha new yorkers
Must watch him on Maher. He thinks Biden's doing a good job. Had dinner with Austin. The one who secretly hid out in hospital as our world falls apart. I would be SO delighted to have just ONE celeb to stay completely out of either side of politics. There's so many things to talk about as he shows here without politics involved. He's very low key with what he says, but he's right there on the far left. I would the same if he were on the far right. Just sick of politics.
It's taken me years to realize how smart Leno is. As crafty as it gets
He's a sleeze ball.
Macdaddy you are a sleaze ball.my opinion is he could never fill carson's shoes but he did pretty good.

@@billmoyer3254 "backstabbed" Leno is looking out for Leno, firstly. Just like Dave and Conan.
I’ve seen Jay twice back in the 90s. He was the funniest best comedian I’ve ever seen. He keeps you crying laughing throughout the entire show, at a quick pace. Zero boring filler shit at all.
This wasn't a podcast, its was a history lesson 🤓
Jay is so great. I am old enough to have watched Johnny too and both were spectacular on their shows. Too bad the good times ended with Fallon.
Indeed. Everyone and their sister thinks they are a comedian now. It's too saturated, too political, and totally unfunny.
Fallon. Who is she?
Higgins is actually more funny than Jimmy
There's NO ONE out there that makes me laugh anymore. How sad.
I'm 51, at 17 I called in to the Larry King show and spoke to Jay Leno, who was the guest. Jay is one of the few sincere leaders a young person trusts. Sharp and unselfish. Concerned about others. I learn something every time I hear him speak.
Rogan's on a hot streak building up to #700, Rousey and Leno in 1 week, not bad at all.
+TreSneaky ? that makes no sense. both of them suck. what are you talking about?
+antonio A It makes perfect sense. Just cause you don't like them doesn't mean everyone thinks that.
+antonio A It makes perfect sense. Just cause you don't like them doesn't mean everyone thinks that.
+TreSneaky Do you know if he did Duane Ludwig and Tj Dillashaw recently, after the Barao rematch? One of these days i saw somewhere that he did but i can´t find it at all. Would love to see that one.
Igor Sena Pereira Hasn't done either that I know of, he talks about wanting TJ all the time.
Jay giving the joint $50 to perform in the hope of a getting it back with a regular gig is proper American Dream stuff. Fella earned his lot. Nice.

@@mskehan19 now anyone can create videos where as before it took thousands of dollars in equipment. People can sell online instead of renting for $1200/month. We have more chances now than ever
Instead people look at the past and say "damn I would have succeeded..
..if I lived back then"
@Kevin J I dont understand what you are trying to say. Are you arguing the metric to success is RUclips trending ?
Regardless, my point is more a general one. The average person has tremendously more access to tools that allow them to pursue their interests at an affordable level. I think people are lazy and like fantasizing about how productive they 'totally would be man' if only they were born 50 years ago and not today.
Jays stand up is the best I've seen. You can tell he only still does it bcus he loves comedy and the audience. Also sent my dad an autographed picture after, pure class.
This has to be one of the greatest podcasts of all time, the stories are fascinating and hilarious, I miss Jay Leno.
My autoshop teacher was amazing! He thought us everything! Not just cars!How to fill out job applications, resumes, how to balance a check book. One of our main assignments was a mock job interview with him, and you got the job or you didn't. He did that because no one else was... He knew most of us were never interested in going to college, but he still put more students into trade schools in many different feilds! More than ALL of the students who went to college or JC's combined, and the completion rates weren't even close to the trade school grads, including myself. Unfortunately for our town the school hated his "style of teaching" and eventually fired him... It was a good thing overall... He was able to move to a bigger school near by so he helps more kids now, many of whom are transferring from our town to have him as a teacher. As long as you tried, put in actual effort, in the shop, and classroom, you got an A. I learned more about life than cars in his classes over 4 years, and I learned A LOT about cars!
A good teacher is worth their weight in gold!!
Some people have the heart of a teacher, and some are just teachers.
"More than all the students"...?
Really wish there was some kind of auto shop class in my high school. Although I try learn as much as I can, Its hard to learn the intricate details of how a car works without a knowledgeable and accessible teacher.
My shop teacher taught me how to make a wood snowman....made of wood.....and glue....it was great.....
It's interesting you say that cuz I had a mechanics teacher who helped teach me, and probably most others, self respect and responsibility in one simple way. If you were late he'd ask if you got a late slip, so weird to think of those now lol, I'd say "yes" and go to show it to him and he says "It's ok, I trust you." And that meant allot, cuz it was my 1st taste of someone in authority actively showing confidence in me, and that GAVE me confidence.
He did a few other things too but that was my lasting memory of him. Even the usual trouble makers respected him and behaved in his class.
Holy shit... The gun story and priest story. That is just fuckin crazy.
the boy scout story...rofl
Count that as something I sure as shit didn't expect upon clicking on this video. Wow.
Dallas Farmer who was the crazy guy in that story
He's right about those people. They are psychopaths. Jimmy Fratiano talked about killing people like he was ordering breakfast.
Totally accurate, too. Years ago I knew a much older guy that was confirmed in the mafia. He was always very nice, but you just got this vibe like this guy can just mentally collapse at any moment. There's no "off" switch in his brain. Like if most of us, if we got into a fight, if we knocked someone out that would be the end of it. This dude would've grabbed a brick and just kept hitting your face until it was mush. I always did my best to end conversations and move on. Even in his 60's this guy would probably do some damage to me. He'd be all in
This has to be one of the best podcast Jay has so much history from standup and what a life his lived
*he's
As a former A-class professional interviewer, Jay Leno himself interviews quite magnificently! Loved the time and place Leno took us to, loved his charisma and fascinating context. One of Rogans best shows ever! I just really overall loved this one. Bravo!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Jay should have an HBO special where he just tells stories about the old days... I could listen to this guy talk about it for hours!
Him and Joey coco Diaz should do a special together, Joey has the most amazing stories to tell , cant stop listening to him .
Ronnie Sherrick yea but Joey sucks at telling the stories even if they are interesting . It’s a skill in itself.
He never got into booze.
A biopic needs to be made!
His best story being the one when he was a young teenager and talked his old man into some upgrades on a new family car.
Jay is such a classy guy
Way too modest to talk about the money he donates to local student programs
Wow, the stories! What a life and career Jay has. This is one of your best shows. Please have him on again!
I'm not a super regular viewer of the JRE, but I'm super glad I stopped by for this one. Absolutely excellent episode. I just wish it was the normal 3 hours long. I could listen to Jay tell those old school stories for as long as he would tell them.
ohhhh fuuuuck I didn't realize this episode is almost over

Jay is effortlessly interesting
He needs a dose X commercial
He really is. That's what happens when you honestly hustle your way up from the bottom.
He is more interesting than he is funny
I wish this podcast was longer, good stuff
You couldn’t say it better
Great interview. Jay's always been a smart, charming guy, and I love hearing his thoughts on stuff and his stories. I wish he'd write a book. Late night has really gone downhill since he left the airwaves.
He did release a memoir in 1996 called "Leading With My Chin".
This was really, REALLY a great episode, these two together was an interesting treat. They seem to have great natural common ground between the Boston Days etc..and just a comfortable laid back vibe between each other. I also always had a huge appreciation for Jay’s Automobile Collection and Passion for it. Great Stuff!
Jay Leno is golden. So respected as a stand-up comedian, talk show icon, and now a great car collector, historian, enthusiast, and spokesman.
Should have been longer, like the usual 3 hours.Bring Jay back.
HE'S NOT FUCKING BUSY!!!!!!!! ;)
HE WASN'T BUSY!! THAT COCKSUCKAAAH
I don't think Jay wants to sit there for 3 hours. He was itching to get out of there at the end. Awesome podcast though.
I could listen to Leno talk all day. This was amazing. Kudos to joe to just letting him run with it, holy shit.
man i wish Jay Leno was my grandpa, i would spend all day with him fixing cars and listening to his stories
Jay is a genuine decent guy. He used to come into my work a lot and of course EVERYONE recognized him. They would yell "hey jay!" and he would wave and keep walking. He never brushed anyone off.
Leno conducts a master class and Rogan had the sense to stay out of the way...
Wtf are you on about? Just because you can make a comment doesn't mean you should.
snavis That’s the point.
snavis Bad interviewrs do that all the time.
Well put
@@snavisTM this is my comment
He really is a very smart man. An encyclopedic knowledge of humor and cars.
He's like Joe Biden but his file cabinet of a brain still opens up freely. 😂 Joe Bidens brains like them old file cabinets that get stuck and go side ways when pulling them open 😂
Real life experiences comedy is fun to listen to.
@FBI @Google mtn neither of them should be running a McDonald's let alone a country.i know that Joe is losing it and I'm not a conservative. I know trump is a moron I'm not a liberal. What the fuck does either one have to do with Jay Leno being funny. The way you fucking people are so divided you might as well write your comments on a piece of paper and bury it in your yard, because you aren't changing any minds, you're illustrating how petty you are.
Reaching the top of two relatively large pyramids shows he is very gifted, and also very humble about it. And as he says, disciplined.
It's all in the chin ma boy. The chin 👍
I am So glad he recuperated so well from the burn accident, I hope Joe Rogan has him on again!
Same here jay can be an ass sometimes but hes just a great guy
Set up, timing, delivery, punch line, bada bing bada boom, next.
Joe: It's time to invite Jay back!
This comment needs to gain some traction
@Richard soma glad im not the only one watching this one now lol
After we die, what happens? AfterDeathTruth.net
...Don't mess with Texas
Jay is surprisingly not douchy
seems like a cool dude. I never watch the podcasts with comedian guests, but this one was very good.
Nope. Jay Leno is actually a class act, unlikely as that seems.
I think he appreciates where he is considering he was homeless at one time.
His eyes always look like he just finished a fatty.
+serg rocha No way. All his money goes to his 12 warehouse sized garages of cars lol
I think this is one of Rogan’s best interviews
Think this Leno guy has some experience 😂
There’s no pulling teeth, it’s just an easy interview
Jay Leno prefers regular non-Hollywood people. His garage is not too far from our home and the neighborhood bumps into him all the time at regular take out joints, in traffic, or he’ll just be cruising in his vintage cars, etc…He’s always super nice, goes out of his way to make sure he says hi back, he’s just a normal nice person to all of us broke ass people.
Call me ignorant, but until a couple of weeks ago I had never heard of Joe Rogan. Since then I have watched several of his podcasts and I have found them to be extremely intelligent and captivating. Some of his interviews, like with Jay Leno and Jim Jefferies are simply astounding. You don't know these people at all unless you have seen these interviews. Joe Rogan, you are amazing!
Yep. Same experience except I knew him from UFC. Best interviews going. Same quality as, say, Michael Parkinson in the UK, but the podcast allows him a lot more time to explore.
I have seen joe rogan in many things throughout the past 15 years... But the best one IMO is his interview with Elon Musk... Fascinating...
You never watched Fear Factor? He was the host. Before that he used to be on a sitcom called NewsRadio.
Me too bruh, Joe budden introduced him to me
Ok, ignorant.
Worst betrayal for a woman to do to a man besides cheating is allowing him to raise someone else’s child under the impression it’s his. Nasty thing to do to a guy.
D2theZ DeeZee yeah scumbag people out there. Stay sharp there is a special place in hell for her
I'd probably say that's worse than cheating...
Jbog07 theirs a reason you're not married and its hilarious to read how black and white you think the world is, you don't just get a DNA test especially if you want to keep this theoretical "wife".. And really you think you have the resources to hire someone to check on your wife lolol the poor women that marries you.. I would suggest you stop taking advice from your dumbass drinking buddies.
Happens more often than we thing
@Jbog07 that is harder to do than you think
I really think this was the best of all the podcasts. Learned so much about being a comedian compared to simply being a funny person.
Leno helps put Lenny Bruce’s fight against the establishment in perspective. The cabaret card needed to be quashed for sure.
Jay Leno's father was a professional boxer, that's cool, he must have had a good chin.
ha
Jay Leno would be quite tough in a fistfight cause his face is so big
& heavy and leathery which is perfect for absorbing punches. I
wouldn't fight him. It would take dozens of hard punches to make that
face hurt enough for him to tap out.
Yappy Raccoon k stfu now

Yappy Raccoon iron chin
Leno is an extremely likeable guy.
Just ask Conan lol
The fuck are you talking about?
@@kuntepoeote6762 IQ much?
Said no one, ever.
The amount of comedy history I absorbed from Jay Leno is crazy. Now I understand why, although he's extremely hated, he's also really respected. Also, hearing about his early jobs explains his cutthroat mentality.
the podcast has been so consistent over the years i had no idea this is 6 years old , i’m watching like it just came out 😂
Joe Rogan's show makes me stop disliking his guests lol.
Recommended, I see
@@buster7618 Not necessarily. I mean I watch the Joe Rogan podcast regardless of the guest. Do people actually look up specific ones?
@@Georgesbarsukov it was recommended to me lol
Cat. That was a good insight. Didn't hate Leno but now I think I love him. L O fucking L.
Very true! he even shined a different light on Sanders! (where he is usually the bumbling old guy on the news, he instead had the breathing space and time to articulate his ideas) Joe has an amazing medium and huge audience for anyone to have their say! (and get asked if they have taken DMT)
A wealth of stories. A great perspective on life.
Jay leno is so humble. Joe keeps trying to give him credit but he's like nah Richard pryor and Rodney dangerfield there good i'm okay. A pure Legend.
they're*
Matthew Ebert David Letterman said “for being one of the greatest stand-up comics of all time, he sure is very insecure”
yeah but Joe starts telling a relevant story and Leno runs em over and i wanna hear Joe's story too.
Missem on tonight show

This one was fantastic. Jay’s success was not dumb luck. This man is analytical and understands not only the craft, but also the business.
Great show. History of comedy through the eyes of Leno. Soldier of the first order with great life experiences.
Jay is a plethora of information and he’s so grounded, I wish I was friends with him.he’s just so down to earth and I can listen to him for hours. Joe is a favorite too, please bring Jay back on Joe, one of the best shows
I AM 93 YEARS OLD, LOVE JAY LENO ,WATCHED HIM EVERY NIGHT, WROTE HIM A LETTER WHEN HE WAS LEAVING THE TONIGHT SHOW ,REALLY THOUGHT HE WOULD WRITE BACK, HES SO REAL,.DIDNT HEAR FROM HIM HAVE.. NOT WATCHED! A LATE SHOW SINCE HE LEFT DONT CARE FOR JOE AND HIS BAD LANGUAGE. , JAY LENO IS THE REAL DEAL FIRST TIME I HAD EVER WRITTEN A LETTER TO A CELEBRITY. GREAT INTERVIEW.
Man this guy's like a walking talking history lesson.
His knowledge of automobiles and all things transportation is second to none. Although he did poorly is school Jay is extremely bright and has a memory like a steel trap.
RJ man you give it to Kim K ! Respect ✊
I love these podcasts. it's great being able to see people, especially celebrities, being who they really are and not portraying an image.
Not even Joe was ready for the "STFU" @ 29:58 - lol
Hahaha
Lmao
That is my Favorite part...from Rodney to the mob clubs was Captivating.
O.O
Please can somebody point me in the right direction ??? I am looking for some advise on what Rogan podcasts to watch ive seen every 1 with joey Diaz on every Eddie Bravo and Alex Jones and mainly all the big names so im looking for advice on ones that were good with a person who is not that famous or not famous at all.
Love the old stories from Jay. Could listen to him talk all day.
This comment thread is amazingly nice, I applaud the thread
+Wolfstatus Ricardo Vargas I know what you mean bro. It's such a refreshing change for once :)
lol I was thinking the same thing. One of the nicest comment sections I've seen on the internet. Kudos to the people here.
I just think people love Jay Leno because like he said you don't know his politics and he's a cool guy that everyone wants there friend to be. He is what people call "people person".
@@The3Stooges Funny!
Good observation. You're right.
Wisdom from a very humble man
He's got stories!
Most of all, he knows how to tell them.

I prefer rogan personally. fun to see two talk show guys on the same cast though
@@jcalonso14 You mean how he was chosen over Letterman's loser ass and Conan's stupidity? Leno is the real deal from the real times. Grow up.
Conan and Letterman are both primadonna, cookie-cutter celebrities. Jay is the complete polar opposite of that. Jay is such an interesting guy.... what's interesting about Conan or Letterman? Nothing. Absolutely nothing.
@@chrisallot66 As opposed to the narcissist who admittedly hid in a closet eaves-dropping on TV execs?? Puleeease.
I'm 35 minutes in and this is just a GREAT interview! I love the stories. Saving this one to watch again later.
Great show. Joe really needs to bring Jay Leno back on again.
This was a fun one. As a 36 year old, I only know Jay Leno as the "tonight show guy". I watched it for years as a teenager, and always just thought of his monologue as kind of g rated humor that wasn't really my thing but it of course always worked for the show, and it's how that format works. I had no idea how much he had worked before or any of the amazing history he casually details in this interview. Really enjoyed hearing him talk from start to finish and gained A LOT of respect for him (which is a phenomenon that seems to happen often on Joe's show, ha ha). Only knock I'd have on him after the episode is you could tell he wasn't the best listener or maybe better put he just wanted to talk mostly because when Joe would mention something ("I was a Boy Scout in New Hampshire also",etc...) he wouldn't bite on it at all. Anyway really loved hearing Jay talk and some of those stories were craaaazy!!
Priceless. Listening to stories from a legend.
I've listened to this 3 times over the years, what a great interview.
do they talk about conan?
Jay is so needed back right now. He would be even more popular today. The late night shows are unwatchable now.
I can't watch a single one of them. Late night shows used to be so good but now they are just cringe inducing junk. Craig Ferguson and Conan were the end of an era.
100% spot on 👍
@Ben same here. Cant stand his fake laughter, soooo annoying!!
Agreed!
He would be wise not to come back. I think he is great but I remember when everyone hated him for years especially with the Conan debacle.
could listen to these mob stories for hours.
Mr. Leno, here's gun. Don't worry about it. When you are done just throw it in the trash. lol
Just watched it through for the second time, one of your best shows. Joe, great job getting Leno out of character for an authentic critique of the industry and the art.
Jay Leno is the most misunderstood guy in show business. I've seen a lot of people trash that guy and it's always for reasons that don't even make sense. He's like that guy in high school who was nice to everyone and then got bullied because he never did anything shitty or mean.
+Tony Vega You don't know shit about him. He is one of the pettiest, meanest, cruelest little punks to ever make it in show biz. Do more research.
scarygary5678 Sir, you are talking to someone who has worked in the entertainment business in Los Angeles for almost 20 years. I heard all the stories, I know most of the big agents. I seriously doubt I need to do any research. Let me guess, your knowledge comes from listening to Howard Stern and Conan O'Brien fans?
+Tony Vega en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_Tonight_Show_conflict
Justin: Both Leno & Conan were basically pawns to the Networks. They were competing for positions. The network wanted to make sure someone was ready to take over the Tonight Show when Leno left & they promised it to Conan before Leno was ready to leave. Leno did leave but Conan wasn't getting the ratings. Had Conan done well enough, that would have been it but ratings went down & honestly, he was awkward. He would have probably grown into it but the network decided they wanted Leno back.
That's a drastically simplified version but point is, they were simply competing for The Tonight Show & Leno won. That entire fiasco was the network's fault. They were simply competing for the job.
Jay Leno would be quite tough in a fistfight cause his face is so big
& heavy and leathery which is perfect for absorbing punches. I
wouldn't fight him. It would take dozens of hard punches to make that
face hurt enough for him to tap out.
Watched this again after many years and really appreciated the conversation. Jay's very entertaining
I wish Carlin was still alive and on this podcast.
Or Bill Hicks
Man i used to hate on the guy because I like conan, such a silly way of living right? This type of podcast enhance your way of looking life in different ways
Imagine what He'd say about the fate of things now lol.
Robin Williams, Richard Jeni, Mitch Hedberg and George Carlin, in the same podcast... my bucket list would be fufilled.
All those guys used to “lull themselves” to sleep. Nowadays things are different, and changing day to day.
Jay's superpower is his insane memory... that's so rewarding to be able to just draw up endless stories, anecdotes, jokes on demand. plus, joe is very attentive and you can tell he figured out at the beginning that he is just there to listen and navigate the conversation
Joe has this amazing gift to have a completely organic interview which in reality comes off like a casual chat and he always gets the best outta these guys. Jay is too fuckin cool great conversation.
Jay Leno is sooo sharp!!! He has a really fast and sharp mind. I was once part of his live audience at the tonight show and got really impressed with his persona. Loved the "simple" man!
It's 2021 looking at this it's amazing how young an youthful Joe looks 5 years younger
Dude, it's 6 years ago. Look at the date.
Have you seen Jay lately?

Looks the same to me.

Its pretty crazy that Leno is worth hundreds of millions and was seen by millions every night for 20 years yet still basically has the mindset of a road comedian
I grew up with Leno, (on tv)and I am glad he kept it clean for the most part. No drama, genuinely cool guy. He would more than likely eat lunch with you if you played your cards right.
Andrew He just loves the sound of laughter and making people happy for a little while.
Humbleness is a gift from God But also probably trying to fill the void of never having children what's the point of having money with no one to spend it on
An Average Joe worth millions

I’ve been a Jay Leno fan my entire life. When I was little I had no interest in watching Letterman but rarely missed Jay. Headlines was my favorite. Glad to know he’s as good of a guy as I always hoped.
Wow, Jay was always my pick as well. Letterman was too dry ,I attempted a few times but to me his show was BORING.
