    To the point, I really like his show. Used to listen more years ago when I was in the car more. Don't have as much time now, so I generally focus on specific guests. My wife likes him, too, so it's a default show we can agree on when we're on a long drive together. 

    And, yeah, NewsRadio is one of the most underrated comedies of all time. Used to watch it over and over in college.

    I'll agree with you on newsradio but that's it. Regarding Biden v Trump, Rogan is acting like an opportunist idiot to play to his audience. And he is lying to please his audience by telling half truths.

    Yes Biden is losing some sharpness but so is trump. But trump can  overcome it with his lying and bullying, an opportunity Biden just doesnt have. Bidens  problem is he continually searches for the truth in his comments which makes his stuttering look worse and then people think omg look how old he is.

    I dont see how Oliver or Stewart lie about their political beliefs or pretend to be independent but then sway to the candidate of  choice simply to please their audiences like Rogan shamelessly does
    You're making it out to be calculated and it's not. He's high and shooting the shit for 3 hours.

    He is playing to his MMA macho audience by comparing trumps battle with Biden to Tyson fighting a three year old. He is pretending to be a non political independent and being swayed by trumps supposed power and masculinity. And big surprise that relates strongly to his audience. Stewart and Oliver are known to be passionate liberals not pretending to be anything other than what they are.
    no, he isn't. he doesn't give two shits about his audience or how many people watch or listen to him. and he is independent in that he freely admits he doesn't know shit about politics. 

    he has in the past said that trump is a fucking loon, but finds him entertaining, and doesn't understand why everyone thinks the world is going to end with him in power. 
    Total fucking garbage. Of course he gives two shits. He’s making coin, yo! Independent appealing to the Team Trump Treason base. There’s money to be made!

    You subscribe? Listen regularly? Buy the news letter?
    Dang, dude. Rogan’s got your big boy tighties all twisted up. You gonna be okay?
    But do YOU? Listen, subscribe, buy the newsletter? Supplements, maybe? Be honest?
    Hah.

    I obviously listen/watch the podcast. 

    What is the fucking point you’re trying to make with either of your last two posts?

    I occasionally watch his podcast - all driven by the guests and if I find them interesting.  
    Have been inspired and informed by a number of them
    Have turned people off quickly when I thought what they were talking about was dumb.
    Like his buddy Bert.  That moron makes me laugh, so hard.
    I saw Rogan a few times years ago, opening for other acts, and he was funny.
    Liked Fear Factor years back, as well.

    Didn't know about his podcast for years and was told by others to check it out based on a few episodes and that was where I started paying any attention to him.

    Had no idea about his Trump support....it does make me think worse of him, just as it makes me think worse of any person who supports that piece of crap.

    He doesn’t support Trump. He said he’d vote for him before voting for Biden, as in he’d vote for anyone before voting for a man most likely in severe mental decline. It was a non-endorsement for Biden.
    How do you square voting for Team Trump Treason as not being support for him? Is Joe Rogan a doctor and qualified to make that assessment, based on what, exactly?
    Based on watching Slow Joe Biden trying to answer softball questions the past 6 months, and it’s getting worse.  Check out the Clinton News Networks townhall show last week w/ Biden.  You think President Trump made Hillary look bad in a debate...Creepy Joe is going to crawl back to his safe space for a hug and support from Obummer when President Trump is through with him..,
    At this point anyone voting Democrat better pray Slow Joe makes the right  choice for VP...or as Joe Rogan likes to say “This Match is Overrrrrrrr”

    I think the truth is somewhere in the middle.
    He's not just a stoner shooting the shit, that is a defense tactic that protects him from criticism for the ignorance he hosts and sometimes voices.  On the other hand, he is a comedian, and he is a stoner, and he doesn't take himself too seriously.  If he provides a platform for ignorance, and he DOES do that, don't fucking kid yourself, then he mostly does it for entertainment value.

    I do get annoyed that he plays the fence-sitter when it's convenient and plays the passionate participant when that's convenient.

    And I will say again, while he has plenty of listeners who listen for fun, he absolutely has a core fanbase of conspiracy-minded dolts who see the Illuminati behind every symbol when they hit the blunt.
    He is ABSOLUTELY the stupid man's smart man.

    I like Joe, but the conspiracy stuff and the "Trump is funny" stuff makes it hard sometimes.

    🤣🤣🤣🤣
    Nobody with an education and a grasp on English grammar thought that Trump made Clinton look bad in their debates lol

    He won the Presidency, and you can argue he won the debates, but he didn't do it by making her look bad.  He did it by making himself look bad, which is what dumbshit hillbillies wanted.  They don't like a politician that speaks well and has a firm grasp on issues, because it makes them feel dumb and talked down to.  They want the guy up there who says "nobody knows more about nucular than me"

    If you totaled it up, approximately how much of his show would you say you've listened to over the years?
    I haven’t watched much but isn’t it his reputation that he is open minded and not swayed by being tied to a particular group? To ignore trump’s poor mental functioning goes against this
    He's making offhanded comments where you can hear him talking through stuff real time. He's not planting a flag and making an endorsement. He said he was supporting Bernie a couple weeks prior.

    Folks who follow politics are used to pundits making bold proclamations. His podcast is people working out ideas and I can see where someone isn't used to that. Much of what he says isn't a final/ridgid thought on any topic.

    I'd argue that you can learn something about the average voter by listening to him and non-political guests talking politics. He's all over the place. We're used to listening to ideologues bicker with each other and no one moves an inch. Look at the guests he's had: Gary Johnson, Bernie Sanders, Tulsi Gabbard, Dan Crenshaw.

    Didn't like him on Fear Factor 20 years ago and then a few years ago noticed a podcast show up on my feed suggestions and had to look up if it was the same guy. Yep. Thought to myself, nah, not interested in listening to him. Glad some people enjoy him. He's not for me.
    It's a hopeless situation...
