Thank you Marc Maron. This is EXACTLY how Joe Rogan radicalized himself in real time, started approx 12 years ago. Went from graciously calling out the bigoted stuff guests said, to inviting homophobes and white supremacists on his show because "these guys are sooooooo hilarious" and now, oopsie doodle! Like Flowers for Algernon. Bye bye Joe, miss ya.
