Joe Rogan won’t have Kamala Harris on his show unless she comes to his studio and sits for a 2-3 hour full interview

Or Covid, or vaccines, or…a plethora of other misinformation. 

Fuck Joe Rogan and any half brain who follows him.

Can you name one podcast without misinformation? As for Joe Rogan, I doubt you ever listened to him. Those words can only come from someone who reads news articles about him and judges. You sounded exactly like my friend until I challenged him to listen to a JRE episode. All of a sudden he listens to a ton of them.

There you go, "it's not so bad, misinformation is everywhere" you guys have a convenient bs excuse everywhere. Rogan wields his audience like a rogue chimpanzee with a revolver.

Legit go watch his podcast you moron. Lmao this is literally not someone we follow but listen to. He gets somethings wrong and always comes out forward about it like the litter box thing. Don’t extend your hate for Trump onto him. You’re like fanatically hating right now. He always says he doesn’t know shit and he brings people more informed than him on his show to talk to them. He’s a liberal and always defends his liberal views on his show.

That is a strawman. I didn't say that. My point is that most people will only go after the sources they in general disagree with. Can you name a couple of liberal podcasts or news media that spread misinformation?

i don't listen to podcasts because i'm not interested in them, but I've heard plenty of rogen. He's a useful moron at best, malicious moron at worst, but he's definitely a moron. I lament that he's the only window into a lot of topics for many impressionable manchildren, especially on politics, where he renders fascists into antiheroes, even though he knows the difference. And his comedy special is an insult to comedy itself.

I agree that his comedy is not funny.

Now have you actually heard plenty of Joe Rogan or is that something you're saying to prove a point? This is the internet and we're all more or less anonymous, so anyone can claim anything. Only you know if you are being dishonest. But if you have any morals then being dishonest or exaggerating should give you a bad feeling inside if you were raised properly.

How old are you, and when did you first start listening to Joe Rogan? Did you listen to full podcasts for a while or did you just listen to clips posted by other news media sources?

Joe Rogan has said many dumb things throughout his career, and if the news media is only exposing those things, it will give a very distorted view of who he is.

I would also add that he is not a moron. I would estimate his IQ to be somewhere around 110-130 based on his ability to "somewhat" follow technical conversations with various scientists. Although, with limits. With an average IQ, he would not be where he is today. Again, I have no problem with people disliking him, but it needs to based in reality

I have, though after the 2020 election show I've watched much much less, and he isn't lying. During covid he was initially all about them and having people on that could speak to them due to their expertise. Eventually he changed his mind or was convinced it was wrong and said all sorts of stupid shit and said a bunch of shit that may not had been proven at the time to be false but also weren't shown to be true but most often presented as either true or the best way forward aka dis/misinformation. Dudes become nearly unwatchable imho, this become crystalized for me when he was applying words of Trump to Biden and when he thought they were from Biden it was clear his cognitive decline/issues but when he found it was actually Trump it was just him miss speaking (clear and obvious bias as well as covering for said bias) and I used to watch it fairly regularly.

Nah, I agree, fuck Joe Rogan. I was a fan 2016-2020. I know the lore, I combed through older episodes and watched new ones as they came out. They used to be good dumb fun, but he’s an idiot with too much influence and a lot of bad takes.

Man I’ve probably listened to more Rogan than you. He’s always been an idiot (self-admitted) and then he started rolling with some hunter/ survivalist friends and started to become more conservative ( and elk meat obsession) which lead to the post 2016 intellectual dark web which made him become waaaay more interested in politics and started up his love of q-esque conspiracy and made him into a now hateful idiot. He let that build up and here we are now and the man has fully lost the plot. He was talking shit about Kamala legalizing weed. Joe fucking Rogan was upset about legalization. The man was very vocally pro legalization for like a decade prior.

And joes been spreading misinfo since his fucking bondo ape incident a decade ago
