Okay, so, I finally got to listen to the show and if anyone wants to listen to it, you can here:

If no one wants to listen to the whole thing, I don’t blame you, but if you do, skip the first 6 minutes.
Joe Rogan begins the show by welcoming Peter Joseph Merola and ask how he can join his cult. He calls it a cult constantly on the show and Peter Joseph Merola didn’t respond by saying it’s not a cult, however mentioned later on he hated cult of personality and bitches about the word “utopia”. But in the beginning of the show, Peter Joseph Merola says something off the wall by saying everyone is in the Zeitgeist Movement rather they like it or not. Huh ? Joe Rogan jokes around and says that he’s a smooth talker and never says ummm but I think thru out half the show, Peter Joseph Merola was stuttering lol. Of course, as I knew, he would talk about his percussion background, blah fucking blah fucking blah and says he has people that are 10 years old to 80 years old that are in TZM, he wishes he had another Jacque Fresco lol. Peter Joseph Merola also recommends a book by Daniel Pink called “Drive” which I don’t know why, since it’s the same guy that said money is a motivator debunking RBE. It was also funny how Joe Rogan would go off topic talking about drugs and sex as he was getting a bit bored interviewing him as he found talking about famous potheads [Carl Sagan and George Washington] and hippie pussy more interesting, shit, I even thought he was making fun of Peter Joseph Merola talking about how he should be getting some chicks so he could finally lose his virginity and stop cummin’ in buckets. Also, Peter Joseph Merola ranted on about the bloggers and mentions how there are negative PR agencies that pay to give people negative reviews implying that we critics get paid to expose and talk shit about him and his cult that he calls a movement. He didn’t want to go totally nuts on Joe Rogan and mention Cointelpro this time lol. Also Peter Joseph Merola says to Joe Rogan that people shouldn’t be offended when they are told how to raise their children by people who aren’t parents and treat their children like shit. Then he rants on about “technological unemployment” and praises Karl Marx. Then after that, Peter Joseph Merola says that his first film is so popular that people copy from his style with documentaries today, I wonder if he was taking a shot at the Thrive Movement that took away the Zeitgeist popularity today or even, making fun of the Zeitards in his cult that try to be like him and make their own movies. Funny. Joe Rogan ask Peter Joseph Merola that if the transition took place, will there be communism, calls it a cult [he said "Camp Peter", giving it a name this time] again and throws the third question, asking if people would just be fat and lazy, Peter Joseph Merola could only tackle the last question out of the three. So much for being smooth. Joe Rogan express to Peter Joseph Merola that he thought that competition was natural and brought in innovation pissing Peter Joseph Merola off with the human nature argument and when asked if he should feel responsible for the Zeitgeist Movement, Peter Joseph Merola just flat out said “no”, as the founder, that’s how he feels I guess. Joe Rogan then questions him about 9/11 as he appears to not agree with it being an inside job and Peter Joseph Merola does his best to explain why he thinks it is to him and recommends the companion guide which I think no one really gives a shit about and also, as usual, compares himself to Martin Luther King Jr. He also says he still is into equity trading as Joe Rogan jokes around by saying that he’s still scamming people. Peter Joseph Merola says the 4th film will be live and un-traditional, whatever the fuck that means, and the 5th film will be the last of the Zeitgeist series and Joe Rogan jokes about it by saying the 5th one will be a puppet show not answering his question if he even watched the 3rd film. Almost two hours in, Joe Rogan ask about the Venus Project and ask about the split, Peter Joseph Merola was vague about it and Joe Rogan jokes about that as he says there was a competition for hippie pussy. Peter Joseph Merola says that he’s 32 years old and mentions a global redesign institute idea by saying there should be no traffic lights while mentioning his great grandfather was an engineer and introduced the first transit system in LA ? That came out of nowhere. He also told Joe Rogan that having too much of something is violent and Joe Rogan was totally confused by that, as I get every time Peter Joseph Merola mentions that shit. Joe Rogan asked Peter Joseph Merola if he was king what he would do and he said he would eliminate property rights and bring in access rights and loves zip cars, no, I like having my own car. Peter Joseph Merola in the end expresses his hatred for the monetary system so much, that he would welcome Robot Slavery and Joe Rogan volunteered to make TSHIRTS with that quote by him in order to help TZM in its activism.
The show concluded by Joe Rogan calling Peter Joseph Merola Matt thanking him for coming on the show lol. I guess that shows how seriously Joe Rogan takes the Zeitgeist Movement.
Congrats TZM, you spammed the shit out of Joe Rogan aka Mr. UFC and got what you wanted, wow, I’m experiencing a fucking value shift.
Okay, we can move on now.

LOL!!!!! Nice Mario Brotha! Its amazing how Peter and the cult thinks this was some kind of success. Peter is like the wimpy kid hanging with the jocks and he doesnt realize they are hazing him lol.

I thought it was a nice discussion, there was no shitting on Peter during the interview. He calmly got his ideas out and Joe Rogan explained he should be getting a lot of hippie pussy.
Even if you don’t like TZM, at least they are shining light on some good points.
I’d drop the subject if I were you Mario, TZM scored a point here and you can’t rationalize your way past this one as nobody will buy it. It actually does your blogs credibility a disservice.

Yeah I thought it was nice when Joe Rogan wanted to join Peters cult. Thats all I had to hear. Peter Joseph will forever be stigmatized as a cult leader no matter what he says or what he does. He was introduced as a cult leader and as long as zeitgeist is recognized for the cult it is, I am content.

I listened to the whole thing and have no problem with others listening to the whole thing if people are thinking I’m lying about anything I said in that review, it wasn’t a serious discussion and Peter Joseph Merola was not calm, he was stuttering and cussing way more than usual. Are things bad at the moment ? Sure, anyone can say that and score a point, like Michael Ruppert did last week on Joe Rogan’s show, but other than that, TZM offers nothing serious and Joe Rogan didn’t seem to get what a RBE was. This show will be another show of the past that people will forget about as many other interviews that Zeitards thought they were shining in when Peter Joseph Merola was trying to get his 15 minutes of fame.
Mario Brotha
The only thing I heard was just how ignorant Peter is when it comes to topics that involve science and physics. Things he believes in are on the same level as a five year old thinking that if he flaps his arms fast enough that he’ll be able to fly.
Instead of hippie pussy, Rogan should have asked Peter about his sexual orientation, Maybe he’s more interested in hippie dick.

When Joe Rogan asked what Peter Joseph Merola will be doing next, I think he mentioned ZDAY but didn’t try to invite him to the next Zeitgeist Media Festival, I wonder why.
