Anyone who was prescribed an extremely advanced, expensive and proven treatment like a monoclonal antibody and attributes their improvement to some ivermectin and vitamins they took at the same time is dumb as a fecking bag of rocks. Or has an agenda.
Joe Rogan
- Thread starter Ecstasio
- Start date
A good podcaster should provide pushback on obvious bullshit or it becomes an infomercial and he becomes a doorman for dangerous rabbit holes.
It’s also funny that the guy he’s talking to was sick for exactly the same amount of time as Rogan despite not taking any of the treatments that Rogan did. And they gloss over that completely. Idiots.
Has Rogan had the vaccine?
Nope.
Its a very fine line to start giving pushback, especially when the host has limited knowledge of the subject. They only become a doorman to dangerous rabbit holes if people take everything ONE person says about a subject seriosuly. Which is incredibly stupid.
For the millionth time: even if Rogan occasionally calls himself an idiot, it's quite clear that this is disingenuous self-deprecation. It's the podcast equivalent of spending 30 minutes giving clear directions and advice to a friend in need and finishing it all by saying: "I dunno, though".
I belive he has over 200 million listeners. If just 1% of them take Rogan's words to heart, then we're talking about the population of a small country here.

You think 200m people listen to Joe Rogan's podcast ?
It's the podcaster equivalent of "just asking questions".
It's 200m "monthly downloads".
He is like half the guys I know: they preface what they say with pretending they think they’re stupid, and use that as a mask to believe whatever they want.
It‘s kind of like what we call bragging about being the humblest person in the room.
Not even pushback, structured conversation. It’s now like if Geoff Shreeves were to interview right wing nut jobs on Super Sunday
If you're going to take your covid 19 advice from Joe Rogan, you'd probably get it from some alternative source anyway. If some people consider him their guru that's just way it is. I know quite a few people who dont want to take the vaccine who's never heard of Joe.
I refuse to believe that. As far as we are concerned in this thread Rogan is solely responsible for ant-vax sentiments
If even one person doesn’t get vaccinated because of (dis)information on his podcast that’s one person too many.
Seen Bret Weinstein was on his podcast the other day. Both he and his brother are absolute fecking cranks.
I couldn't agree more. I usually don't mind Rogan but his takes on Covid has been an absolute car crash.
Bingo
A bit late, but this would fit the progressive conversatives here in Canada, or the VVD in the Netherlands (probably also the FDP in Germany, and so on): conservative on economics, progressive on social issues. Basically a soft version of libertarianism: a govenrment that stays both out of your wallet and out of your head/bedroom - but without trying to get rid of government entirely.
In the US though, with only two established parties, it's always going to be hard to pigeonhole anyone who is't a social conservative (add 'deranged' for the current version of the Reps) or progressive neoliberal.
Is he still relevant? I thought after moving to Spotify he'd lost a ton of listeners
He’s an awful fecking wind-bag. I’d rather listen to Rogan.
I thought he was just taking a pile of drugs along with the vaccine. Which is to be expected from him. I really underestimated how brain dead he is apparently.
Joe Rogan is a massive massive bellend. Your fecking workouts and elk meat didnt stop you getting Covid you bollocks.
I miss the fight companions. Not been the same 
I used to feel exactly the same however have you listened to him of late? His communication style has changed a lot to be fair.
it is good shit thoughMight be similar to deer meat.
Its similar but milder and less gamey.
It should be very tasty then.
???
I had some great deer jerky last time I was in California. My uncle knows a few hunters. Tasty stuff.
agreed
Too many shoulds?
Rogan also thinks smoking weed with his pals makes them funny, when really it makes them annoying.
That's just about every weed smoker anywhere, can't hold that over him
I had some Amazonian deer meet once. I did not know what I was having until it was too late. It was really good though.
Rogan has always been something of a clown, how anyone could listen to him and consider him an authority on anything outside of maybe MMA and Pot I don't know. What he was good at was getting a wide range of guests on his show and giving them space to ramble, tell interesting stories, give different perspectives, sometimes show themselves and him up. I don't see him as a guy who is particularly politically engaged or trying to push an agenda.

Oh man. I’ve been trying to cut back on meat lately but (a) finding it really difficult and (b) I do feel a bit different buying or getting something directly from a small scale food hunter.I had some Amazonian deer meet once. I did not know what I was having until it was too late. It was really good though.
He’s the Male equivalent of the Kardashians. One of the least authentic people in media.
