Rogan is one of the dumbest people on the planet and got famous making people eat blended rats on TV.

How the hell did we get to a place where we're looking to him for legitimate journalism?

He was a first mover on podcasts, and already being a reality TV celebrity he got a lot of big guests early on.

Rogan was fine on NewsRadio, Fear Factor, etc. He used to believe in facts.

Don't believe me? https://youtu.be/9lD29jqH078

Only 6 years ago he debated on the side of climate change (which almost all scientists say is a thing and apolitical).

But with the unprecedented $250 million Spotify deal he's now very rich and with that comes massive entitlement, greed, and wanting to control everyone, so he just regurgitates right-wing talking points like all the other rich assholes. If he sounds just like all the other Fox/NewsMax/OAN liars spouting propaganda, it's because that level of wealth literally changes you and now you're obsessed with only making the number go up. He literally laughed at the thought of the most vulnerable people (unhoused) dying in the fire! Fuck Joe Rogan, I regret the one stand-up show of his I attended....
