He doesn't question a single word of her absurd testimony and just repeats her wild claim and goes wow.
People had to push the train? why would they not just walk to their destination?
a guy with his intestines hanging out of his body and food is his primary concern... wtf?

"The rats ate the eyeballs of dead/dying people and children would eat the rats then die and then the rats would eat the children. Gotcha, how in the hell could a child catch and eat a live rat?.

Rogan lost what credibility he had a long time ago. To me, his greatest threat is that he has routinely confused the appearance of intelligence with actual intelligence. He'll talk to intellectual charlatans like Jordan Peterson and Ben Shapiro without questioning the many problems with their arguments, for instance.

The issue, as many here would likely point out, is that he's quickly going off the deep end by both spouting outright terrible nonsense and entertaining it from his guests. He's either desperate for the ratings, losing his grip on reality or both.

Exactly, he's devolved into little better than the podcast version of Jerry Springer, no doubt life is tough in North Korea but "children eating rats who then ate the children" is laughingstock territory.

He was full on team “OMG Trump booted from twitter, free speech is dead”.
I think he’s gotten placebo brain damage from his years commenting on the UFC. Not even kidding, Dana White+ is full on Trumpster so is 95% of that crowd.

Lex Fridman#300, he is having Rogan on and it is much more tempered Rogan than what we've seen before. Keep this up and I might start listening again.

Not a chance, Faux Nation ( their paid brainwashing) is running a special on Rogan. He’s a lost cause.

Personally, I see him as what used to be referred to as a head, somebody who intellectualizes on pot. Far out man, as in having no sense of reality, cut off from the common sense most people have because they are more in touch with their feelings.

He talks while he is actually more asleep than awake. Glazed over, detached from reality. A space cadet. But just my opinion and unfair because I don't have a lot of experience listening to him. I find nothing of interest in what he has to say. A leads to be leads to c leads to d leads to e and so what. I think of Solaris.

He is such a dumbass. You can reverse engineer what kind of shit is going on upstairs by reviewing those statements. McEanany. Psaki. He is not bad at the interviewing part though and he do have some interesting characters on.
Fucking idiot.

He's selling a product that's emotionally addictive. The problem with that is his listeners need an ever increasing level of sensationalism to maintain the level of attention on him, which requires a proportional level of fantastical accusations and tall tales of contrived conspiratorial malevolence that in turn takes his audience into Loonieville and beyond to keep his followers focusing on him while his only concern is get rich quick, nothing else matters.

He was actually committing fraud and was getting away with it.

Cliff notes:

jen psaki = terrible
Kelly mc… = greatest of all time
Peter doucy = great reporter asking the hard questions



LOL, I remember McEnany’s last briefing on January 7, the day after the insurrection. She read a short, weak ass statement and then bolted for the door without taking questions. Didn’t hold another briefing before the inauguration. Hard hitting Press Secretary indeed, lol.

Who you gonna trust, Rogan or your own eyes??

lol. remember how no one that came for that rally actually came for peaceful reasons? Every single one of them interviewed in the crowd, not even in tactical gear, were mumbling their Q shit about what was about to happen.

It's great to see the J6 committee spell it out so plainly how this thing was organized by Trump and Bannon and Flynn, et al, and the word got out to the militant righties that dragged the Qnutters, all of whom had been swallowing the storm nonsense and quaffing down videos and images and discussions of insurection and violence on their forum for months by that point. Just stewing and fuming and ready to bust.

No one that came to Trump's Insurrection rally came there planning to be peaceful. Not one single person that actually travelled to DC, for Trump, on Jan 6 (because they all travelled.). No one commits to a pointless rally like this, through inconvenient travel, after months of believing your freedom was stolen--they literally believe this--and doesn't do so with the intent to do a coup. Not one fucking person.

In all likely hood it shows that

1. He only sees the clips that his peeps sends him
2. He keeps Q/MAGA morons in his orbit.
3. He is really really not very well informed on the daily/politics.

He then goes on to "fake it till you make it", spews this nonsense and gets a positive feedback loop. But he is an arbiter of second hand information, too fucking bad he has the audience he has.

4. he make more money on the cultist than he would on non-cultist and so tailors his show to them.

I wonder if he’s just scared of getting carbombed or something.

Just recently he said he didn’t like trump and didn’t want to support him…and probably got a lot of death threats to him and his family.

Regardless, I haven’t watched/listened to his podcasts in years. And I can’t really support anyone who hosts people like Graham Hancock.

My friend was a huge fan of him but has seen his downfall. I mean he was a Joe Rogan fan for years and years he'd always talk about a podcast that was good when they were good. But now he's like that man lost his shit.

At this point Joe Rogan is just a twat. But a twat with a lot of influence over dumb mostly male idiots.

To be honest, I never watched a single podcast of Rogan, nor do I wish to in the future.
