I think interviews like this are the biggest reason Joe has become such a mega name. He finds incredibly interesting people, well known or not, and has the ability to speak with them in a way that gives the audience a pretty solid insight to their disposition. I had heard of Jason before and thought his story would be interesting to learn about, but never made the effort to do so. Thanks Joe for introducing us to yet another fascinating person.

Western Washington was a crazy place to grow up. Love this story of climbing high tension power lines! We would jump from the top of Hemlock trees, and ride the limbs down as they bent, but don't break, amazing wood fiber. Lots of Western Washington was near rain forest, little rain micro climates, getting like 80 or 90 inches of rain annually, well away from the real Olympic Rain Forest. When I was 4 or 5, I'd be climbing big maple trees, just hanging onto thick moss, and digging my feet in. These were monster trees, the first limbs being like 30 feet up. Thanks for making me think of the good parts of my childhood!

I was stoked to see Jason made it onto Rogan. This guy would have a million stories to tell from the Nirvana and Soundgarden days, fascinating stuff.

Yet many times that music has MASSIVE impacts felt by millions and saves lives and changes them around or helps with mental strife and struggle. So if that to you is trivial I feel sorry cause it's far from it. It's just like the people who say "it's just a game" when talking about sports. Never considering how many children are saved or avoid horrible life paths or learn amazing traits because of sports. Like self accountability, structure, critical thinking, how to live for something more important then one's self and being apart of a group/community which vastly has a positive impact. And they don't even cover how sports bring together entire communities regardless of differences, races, politics and all that and has everyone rooting for one cause which helps keep communities doing well. So many people never can see the big picture in these things

​@@user-ux1vj9vx7s Is he not credited with royalties? I'd be real fuckin bitter if I'd fronted the bill for an album as iconic as Bleach and never recieve a cent off the millions of copies sold lol

Thank you for your service

listen to this on my 32km long run today. Such a good podcast. Enjoyed it.

What an incredible story this guy has.

I would LOVE to see Krist Novoselic on JRE!!

So many interesting people in this world and JR is the MASTER of finding them and helping them tell their story. 👏👏👏

Speed Racer and Johnny Quest - wow! That is such a memory. This guy has experienced so much. So great.

If you look into Jason's life a little it seriously seems like he was apart of MKUltra. Maybe he leaves out alot of information because he doesn't remember it. The man played in MINDFUNK as well from 93-94 played big festivals did interviews on Headbangers Ball over in Europe. Why leave all that out

Thanks for your service, Jason Everman.

This is one of those stories that would be turned down in entertainment but is so compelling and awesome!

An amazing story, I like his words, Endeavor to author your own life. Myself, My grandfather was a medic in the Canadian Air force. My great grand fathers were both in WW1 and at the Somme, Ypres, and Hill 70. My uncle was a PPCLI sergeant and it led me to join the Canadian Army. I played in a few bands as a teen in the Calgary area in Canada. After the Army, I became a Wildland firefighter, then a structural fire fighter, then a Paramedic, then a Peace Officer, to which I am today. The stories that I can tell. I really should write a book about all I have seen and done.

Soundgarden is fucking amazing music

Man joe and Jason?! What a great show! I thoroughly enjoyed this program cheers to you both.. 💪

This is one truly amazing human being!

I was recently reading a Chris Cornell biography, and Jason was mentioned in a few pages. He was considered too quiet for the band to handle that it annoyed the rest of the band. The same problem he had in Nirvana. They felt as though he was too distant and lacked a sense of humor. But all that time, he knew that he didn't want to be in a rock n roll band whatsoever. Had different dreams than the rest of the band members. Side note: He payed for the whole Bleach album session and was never reimbursed. Didn't even ask for his money back. Tells you a lot about what a good soul he has. Edit: I know everyone is going by quotes here and there, trust me I get it, but I just came back from reading Chris Cornell's biography this past January for the first time, I knew very little about Jason and the details as to why he was fired and these sources that I got my from information, came from the members of those bands and the people who were actually there. This is still freshly new information that a year ago I never knew before. After reading the biography and then seeing Jason on the Joe Rogan podcast, it's clearly obvious that he is a very shy and quiet dude. I'm an introvert myself so I can pick up the vibe he presents. Trust me read the book .. or don't. Lol.

Doesn't sound accurate to me. I highly doubt the guys in Soundgarden would fire someone because they were an introvert. It probably came down to he wasn't that good of a musician just like what happened to Pete Best with the Beatles. He obviously wanted to play in Soundgarden and would have stayed with the band if he had not been fired. Either way, he seems like a good dude.

@@shinybeast8946 I'll say this, if you read Chris Cornell's Total Fucking Godhead (a biography of his life up to his death, a really good book -- highly recommend it), it really gives you a in depth details of what kind of guy Jason was. He is by far a really cool dude, but a total buzz kill.

Jason meant a lot to early days Nirvana. Payed for the recording of Bleach and so on. Thanks for that! Seems like a decent guy with a interesting life. Be really cool to have a beer with him.

You can hear the genuineness in his voice.

I am so grateful I grew up around the same area. Life was so much easier then it is now. It’s beautiful is Washington. We literally have it all here within a few hours drive

Been waiting for this guy to be on for years. I've read all about his life and talked about his crazy cool career with military buddies over the years. I'm doing my own version of what he did from military to MBA to my creative/artistic side.

I appreciate you both, Jamie and Joe, for the original food for thought you put out. You guys should have Jello Biafra as a guest. He is really intelligent. Thanks

I can relate to the getting kicked out of the house and told to go play outside then returning later all beat up and covered in dirt because I was "mountain climbing" or "rock climbing" but what I was actually doing was imagining situations and playing in the woods.... I actually had a small base w/ food and stuff on the side of an old cliff trail by the age of 12 and I was just wiring sticks together and making mud blocks I would anchor the sticks into and stuff. No idea what I was doing but I did it for years to where I had a bunch of hideouts all over the mountains around my little town.... I wouldn't change anything about how I was raised because it made me be very independent and self reliant at a young age.

He completely is. Why, is this dude leaving out so much. Its suspect to me. He played in MINDFUNK and played pretty big festivals in Europe and did interviews with the band.

This is really my latest very favorite of Rogans.. this guy is an amazing story teller. I'm about 6 years older than you 2. And man I could relate to all of his stories. Wow. And i also. Live sound garden. And those type bands. I listened to KROQ. In the 1980s.1990s and on. It's an LA area alternative radio station. But I'm so amazed and blown away by this interview. I would love to hear more of this man's stories. Because he did say many times .... " that there is much more to the story.... I mean he brought up a lot. Amazing story teller. And interview

When Joe says "we got plenty of time....", I smile 😊.
