    I'd rank my Joe Rogan interview order this way:

    Stone - I enjoy hearing interesting people speak even if I don't always line up with them. They could do this without even mentioning PJ.
    Jeff - Seems easy going. Art, skating, basketball and what it is like to grow up & live in Big Sky Country.
    Mike - Always felt very genuine but quiet. It would be cool to hear him open up about life outside of PJ & dealing with Crohn's.
    Matt - Musical connections, what it's like to have been a part of so many amazing projects. What is Matt into outside of music?
    Ed - Seems like a difficult interview and hardly ever comes across as interested in the process. Probably just an uncomfortable situation for him more than anything. Plus he's had a microphone in front of him for almost 30 years, we know how he feels.

    Joe Rogan isn't racist. He's a comedian that makes jokes, possibly jokes that aren't your cup of tea. Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle both have jokes mocking white people. I laugh, it's hilarious. I laugh because I know it's not meant to be racist, I know it's a joke, and I can find humor in it.

    If Rogan was really racist, why would he allow on so many people of other races and why would those people of other races agree to on a podcast ran by someone racist?

    "I have lots of black friends!"
    he does. but that means nothing. watch how he interacts with people of all backgrounds. listen to his views, what he says.

    The one thing I DID hear him say, when walking into a theater full of black people was "We walked IN to planet of the apes! Its Africa!"

    I dont see the guys in a long winded conversational platform. Stone would probably be the best representative. Ed is awkward in most interviews. I just dont see this happening.

    yeah, I honestly can't defend that. it seems like an odd comment for him to make, based on what i know of him. I mean, this isn't a michael richards moment. I can only imagine he meant something else, but I'm not going to sit and here and spew conjecture when I just don't know.
