Caller: "Hey, so I racked up a little over $30,000 in debt, and I was wondering if I should try to pay it off or just file for bankruptcy. I'm kind of living paycheck to paycheck with all that debt."
Dave Ramsey: "What kind of debt is it?"
Caller: "Credit cards, personal loans... and I have a couple things in collections now."
Jade Warshaw: " What caused you to fall on such a hard time? Did you lose your job?"
Caller: "No... I started gambling last year."
Dave Ramsey: "You ran up $30,000 in one year? "
Caller: "Yeah. I was winning pretty big... then I just started losing."
Jade Warshaw: "Apparently not. Was it sports betting?"
Caller: "No. Casinos. Sometimes online casinos."
Dave Ramsey: "How long has it been since you last gambled?"
Caller: "Two days."
Dave Ramsey: "So let's be clear. You admitted in the first minute that gambling has almost driven you into bankruptcy... yet you keep gambling."
Caller: "I'm just trying to win the money back."
Jade Warshaw: "Have you considered getting help?"
Caller: "It's not an addiction. I could stop right now."
Dave Ramsey: "Then why don't you?"
Caller: "Because I'm trying to win the money back."
Dave Ramsey: "The debt isn't your proble, it's the symptom."
"The gambling is the problem. If you file for bankruptcy but keep gambling, you haven't fixed anything."
Caller: "I just want to stop living paycheck to paycheck."
Dave Ramsey: "The way you do that is by stopping first. Get help. Join Gamblers Anonymous. Never gamble again."
"You're under the illusion that you're good at thisbut you're not. It owns you right now"

Tommy Lee says he never learned drums the traditional way and thinks that's true for many of the greatest musicians.
Joe Rogan: "How do you hold the sticks? The conventional way you were taught, or did you figure it out on your own?"
Tommy Lee: "I just figured it out on my own."
"Probably just moved on from the forks and spoons."
Joe Rogan brings up Jimi Hendrix teaching himself guitar, leading to a conversation about why rhythm seems to affect people on an almost primal level.
Tommy lee: "The more drummers there are... it becomes this tribal thing. Everybody gets moved by rhythm."
"It's a different kind of power than making someone cry with a piano and the right chords."
"There's nothing better than rhythm. That's what I live for."
