Yeah super great guests like Jordan Peterson and RFK. Yikes.
Rogan ran out of interesting fringe guests years ago. Now he hosts a platform for mostly nutjobs to promote their easily-refutable conspiracy theories while he replies with "Wow"
wow people really hate joe rogan lol, i watch the comedians not the politicians. "Wow"
I used to like him but I can't stand him now for the above reasons. I have no respect for someone who knowingly gives a HUGE platform to grifters. It's the biggest podcast in the world so anything said on there has a significant cultural impact.
Nobody was talking about RFK until he was a guest. Now there's tons of people who think he's a real candidate for the presidency because ..why else would Joe have him on the show?
I think Joe Rogan treads in dangerous waters with some of his guests and it ruins the whole thing. He should have stuck to comedians because I agree with you - those are funny and worth listening to
