The Joe Rogan Experience Podcasts

In ireland we are probably living in our best period economically,and socially are more free than ever before. This dystopia is not half bad.

Anyone who pretended to know where covid came from at the start of the pandemic, was conspiracy theorising. Do you know how I know that? Its because nobody had a clue back then so pretending to know one origin or another was true, was probably conspiracy theorising.

Waiting for the evidence, and a consensus to emerge, isn't conspiracy theorising. But only for the absolutely obvious reasons. Do you get the difference?

Conspiracy theorist still is a slur -for anyone who understands the difference between real information and an anonymous tweet or afacebook post that agrees with your bias.

The thing is thst more and more people can't tell the difference between real information and the entertaiers like JR.

This entire post is a untrue

Wokerati. Groan.

Did you seriously follow a sentence suggesting I smear everything I don't like, with the term wokerati? Are you trying to break irony?

Sure. It's all 50:50. Nothing is a conspiracy theory

Look, back in the real world, you're making excuses for a conspiracy theory, pretending you don't know what a conspiracy theory is and favouring suggesting I'm stupid instead of even acknowledging the conspiracy theory. I think you can do better.

I suppose there is some missing context to that also.

Because he has conspiracy theorist* like Alex Jones on his show. Alex Jones loves selling the qanon conspiracy

Abducive reasoners, if you prefer.

The Internet brain is strong on this thread.

It's odd that conspiracy theories are being brought up in in the Joe rogan thread at all. I think he only believes in the Jfk one and has given episodes to discussing the American government possibly hiding alien existence or covid may have come from a lab but is not fully committed to either. Unfortunately qanon has developed hundreds of theories some of which are easily disproved like there being a child dungeon under a pizzeria or biden is actually dead

Of course he's an entertainer. He's not just a guy having chats that interest him. He's employed to get as many clicks as possible. Controversy sells. Conspiracy theorist, sell. He isn't paid to be an educator or peddle good Information, he's paid to peddle whatever information gets the clicks. Alex Jones spouting gibberish will sell better than some sober discussion of reality.

The narrative about JR just being an honest broker, a lone wolf, lost in the savage world of the crooked media, is bonkers. He's a member of the broader media, who peddles in whatever sells, including conspiracy theories.

Expecting to be immune form accusations of peddling conspiracy theories because he just has the conspiracy theorists on his show, is bonkers.

No, there's nothing missing.

The comedian guy was exploiting people desperate for a break and the Rogan fella was whooping and laughing at the thought of it.

Google it yourself. I was not sure if it was the same fella, but it is. He has been very dismissive and disrespectful to women on his "show! as the clip about the primate expert showed earlier.

Seems a bit of a knob and now a tinfoil hat wearing knob.

Joe and the primate expert really sums covid info in the last few years up.

A podcaster shouting down and telling an expert in her field that she's wrong because he did his own research online.

Wonder if he ever apologised to her?

his laughing at the comedian who coerced women to blow him is fairly **** behaviour. He’s lucky to avoid a bigger backlash at the time for that.

I listen to plenty of pods, I pretty much hate joe rogan, I find him a boring interviewer who ruins a good format by not being a very good conversationalist. The constant same topics being trawled over; hunting, DMT, survivalism, fitness, combat, California being too liberal and badly governed, conspiracies. I don’t see curiousity about the world from him. Just curiously and faith in a limited scope of topics.

It’s a poor reflection of modern culture that this is the biggest podcast in the world. I believe in free speech but personally I couldn’t shed any tears if he’s done.

Ironically, if he gets binned by Spotify he'll actually probably grow his listenership, as it's at least slightly limited now by having a platform-wall. He owns the show itself, so if he parts ways with Spotify you could see him moving to an ad-based model across the whole range of podcast platforms, and reaching more people.

You're delusional if you think that'll work. Take a look at any "free speech" website. Overrun by edgelords promoting hitler, "legal" child porn etc. Google runs due to advertising. Who wants to advertise on a platform that will be known for that?

I thought Parler was supposed to be this? Or wasn't Trump coming up with some new platform? I see a conservatives minister was coming out against Jimmy Carr for his Gypsy joke saying it would banned under hate speech legislation so it does seem to have gone mainstream in even the UK and not just the Left involved.

Yep.

'Woke' safetyism crosses party lines - at it's essence it's a tool of the powerful (left, centre and right nowadays) to reduce freedoms cheered on by people who, in the case of JC's bit, simply don't get a joke.
