The Joe Rogan Experience Podcasts

Always great to see someone overcome health issues like that, it was going pretty good but when voter id and immigration came up Fetterman started squirming a lot

It will be interesting to see what kind of role he will have in the Trump/Musk White House.

And the increased mushiness of his brain due to drug use.

I avoid the comedians podcasts as much as possible unless its someone famous like Adma Sandler. I just find alot of Joe's comedian friends not very funny.

It’s so sad to see how centrists like Joe were abandoned by the Democrats.

I don't think Joe gets enough credit for his hosting ability. Always thought Theo Von was a good guest and easy to listen to Joe and him. After listening to a couple of Theo's podcasts I found them to be shockingly bad and dull.

Has he had anyone on that's had the nerve to call him out for endorsing an election deniying insurrectionist?

Yeah, it’s a tough spot for Democrats. Appearing on his podcast lends it credibility, but avoiding it allows misinformation and a fantasy narrative to flourish. It’s a double-edged sword. Mehdi Hassan recently pointed out that the left/center lacks an equivalent platform, and that’s really the only way to compete effectively. He probably has a point.

If you think he would have given her the same leeway as he did when he gargled for Trump, I have a meme coin to sell you.

If she isn't competent enough to deal with him what chance did she ever really have of winning an election?

Maybe she did, you seem kinda invested in this so I'm inclined to just go with whatever you want my man

Funny phrasing :) . But actually I think he has been relatively honest about that. He has been asked by a few guests what he would have done if she had come on to his podcast. As opposed to the idea she had to fly him out to a hotel to do the podcast there under strict editorial control.

Mostly he has claimed he would have treated her like any other guest - where his usual ideal is to get to the bottom of what she thinks and why. But on a few occasions he has been honest enough - that if a few "trigger" subjects had come up - he would have given her a pretty hard time. He admitted as much in his latest podcast with Lex. I forget now which trigger it was. But he said - paraphrase - "If that came up I wouldn't be normal, because that **** doesnt make any sense".

Unfortunately all of us, you me and everyone else, can only imagine how it would have gone and we will bring our own biases to that fantasy. But I err towards thinking he has been fairly honest. He would have treated her relatively fairly. But as you say - on certain topics - he would have given her a harder time than he did Trump. It wouldn't have been an equal airing I think too. But I do not think it would have been massively skewed either. I think he would have been mostly fair.

But this is all opinion with no possible counter factual. None of us will ever know alas. Which is a shame because - like Rogan or hate him - when he gets someone on for 2 or 3 or even 4 hours - you do tend to see a side of them you didn't see anywhere else. I think everyone for or against KH missed out by her not giving it a go.

I think they believed Rogan would try a gotcha interview but they also didn't trust her to do a 2 hour interview and thats why they kept from doing interviews for so long then when they let do them it was a max of 45 minutes with pre planned questions but she still manages to make a mess of some of it. It's a pity she didn't do it as we would have seen a normal side to her talking about things outside of politics just like JD Vance

Anyway I was catching up on a few episodes lately but I gave up most of them. Mel Gibson is completely out of his mind and what's the story with Lex Fridman, he's incredibly hard to listen too

If Rogan is where certain sections of the American community get all their news no wonder they have large gaps in their knowledge. And after that what do they have two partisan, channels CNN and Fox. Both omitting pieces or framing to suit agenda.

As for Rogan amazed he got so big must be optics, hard work and image.

Not the best presenter, not the best MMA fighter, and a terrible comedian. A man with really odd world views. Not very well educated. Not progressed beyond High School. A drop out. Yet here he is a multimillionaire influencer not just in America but worldwide. Madness.

Was Rogan running for election?
