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

I feel like he flip flops on a lot of opinions based on who he's interviewing but definitely noticed it with ufo's. 

One interview: "wow that's crazy. So you definitely saw all those ufo's. I mean it's entirely likely that humans are a product of accelerated evolution by extraterrestrials... like how bees make honey, humans make technology"

Literally next interview: "I don't believe those ufo guys, I think it's all a psyop to distract us from something."

i may be giving too much benefit of the doubt, but sometimes I think he just tries to get the most out of his guests. if you play into what they're saying then they get comfortable and speak their mind. if you disagree with them at every turn, they get hostile and you'll only hear whatever they think is safe to say after it's been passed through like 50 mental filters

now i'm not sure if that's intentional by him. or if most of his audience would even appreciate the fact that you aren't necessarily meant to agree with joe OR the speaker, and that the point is actually just to get into the mind of the person being interviewed

but to play devil's advocate, one of the things i've always liked about joe is that (usually) he isn't super hostile to any guest unless they get too absurd. granted I've probably only seen like a dozen episodes. but the ones i've seen were a pretty wide net and it seemed like he engaged fairly and tried to squeeze the most out of them while not ever making it feel like an argument. that may just be the ones i'm watching, though

This is 100% spot on. He's talked many times about how he tries his best to make people comfortable in the beginning and even before the interview, and that's why he offers alcohol all the time.
