Joe Rogan Experience #2406 - Russell Crowe – Podcast Recap

This podcast recap is from an extended conversation between actor Russell Crowe and comedian Joe Rogan. They discuss Crowe’s recent, demanding film schedule, which included roles in five movies in quick succession, such as playing Hermann Göring in the film Nuremberg and Ramirez in the remake of Highlander. The discussion spans several related topics, including the psychology of evil as observed in the Nazi war criminals at Nuremberg, the speakers' shared experiences with gambling addiction and its potential genetic links, and a broad consideration of various sports like rugby and cricket, often contrasting them with American sports, with particular attention paid to the rise of gambling apps and referee corruption. Finally, they touch upon personal health, the benefits of taking breaks from work at Crowe's Australian farm, and the ongoing global issues of media consolidation, political polarization, and the introduction of invasive species.
