    Clicked that video hoping it was Jeff Garland talking about Curb. 

    Edit: Now I've watched the video. Ugh...seems like a total hack. 
    A hack indeed. 
    I once tried to watch one of his specials on Netflix and didn't last five minutes. 
    I don’t watch his stand up...not my thing.

    Guess I’m not a fan of pick-and-choose pieces as was posted. I find them juvenile and attempting to sway or give a “gotcha!” moment...no matter who the piece is on.

    I know what you're saying, but I've watched all of specials. this particular representation is fairly accurate, even with the splicing.

    Kinda sounds like he’s talking about Jones in the sense of what he’s spoken of with him (stupid microchips and all), and Spotify letting everything fly.

    I’m not bent out of shape over the minute-long clip you posted, though ;)

    i was interested in this because it's Joe being interviewed. The one thing that bugged me about this is, I just wish he'd get interviewed by someone who isn't a big fan just patting his ego. Sagaar is obviously a fan and gushes a bit too much. 

    Joe does come off as a generally nice guy who just tries to be a good person. It's 75 minutes, and it's not riveting viewing, but it gives decent insight into how he thinks. 

    he also turned down interviewing Trump twice at the White House.

    Scientist who has worked for two decades on vital transmission and vaccination says that Rogan is completely misrepresenting his work when he took a line out of context from a research paper to argue against vaccination.

    Thanks yet again, Rogan, for being an ass and talking about things you know nothing about.

    haha I get back to the city after a weekend of no cell service and I see Rogan trending again. I just wondered what idiotic thing he said this time.

    I understand he’s persona non grata round these parts, but wanted to share this article re Rogan and Spotify. Follow the money!

    Lol. I didn't know he took the animal meds - really? I just read he went to Florida to be all welcoming to his antivax friends and of course brought home their #1 export: a big juicy covid infection.
    If he took those meds, I actually hope he gets really really sick. Otherwise, he might take it as a reason to spew about how the animal meds helped to keep him from getting really really sick.

    Why though would he need all of that? His message was that healthy people do not need the vaccine correct? Why would he need 6 figures worth of treatment I wonder when he is advising his normal healthy listeners that there is nothing to worry about?

    I don't know. but what really burns my ass is all of this "look at the platform he has, and how irresponsible it is of him to tell everyone he took this". um, every single article I came across ONLY MENTIONED IVERMECTIN. none of the other drugs he took. who is being irresponsible here? the guy telling the truth, or the clickbait fucking articles of the MSM that know half the people read the headline and not the article. 

    look, I think he's an idiot and highly irresponsible a lot of the time, but let's call it like it is: the MSM needs their feet held to the fucking fire.

    It’s as if he has no fucking clue what he’s talking about. 

    Weird, I know.

    Really? That's what you take from this? Mainstream media isn't the bad guy here.

    A little off topic but it is interesting to see the NBA is barring unvaxxed players from playing at venues that require it.

    it was just a matter of time.

    he took a bunch of meds not even indicated for this viral infection, including prednisone, or z pack, (i can't remember what i read earlier), but those are corticosteroids which can potentially weaken the immune system. unwise if he is unvaxed with delta variant.

    Nailed it. How a stand up comedian and podcaster becomes an authority on anything except bad jokes and filling time with talk about whatever drifts into his mind is beyond me.

    People listening to celebrities isn't new. hell, how many people listen to Ed's ramblings about politics? and how many of those people agree with Ed because he's Ed?

    Rogan seems to have been able to cross the line between just 'regular dumb celebrity' because he does host a lot of intellectuals on his show, and he seems to have a good grasp on many of the subjects they talk about, so I think that gives him credence to his viewers that if he can hold his own with an intellectual, then maybe he does know what he's talking about with public health. 

    of course, i think that just shows he's got a really good producer who knows how to research and prepare rogan for each guest. But I could see how it could be convincing to an average stoner.

    when called out though he claims "I'm just an idiot dumb comedian. you shouldnt listen to me"

    If that is his typical audience, then yeah it makes sense. I am one of those weird people who do not let celebrities do my thinking for me. Yes, even Ed.  =)
