    90% of the population could come up with the same ideas if surrounded by yes men, unlimited money, people that bring ideas to you and you simple pick the one you like the most.
    I think having Kanye on the JRE would actually be a step down.

    Good lord, it's hard to read such utter nonsense

    That's certainly the perception, that's why him on JRE would be interesting to get an insight.

    Only saw recently he was on Letterman so must check it out but I'm not expecting great things.

    I don't think its ever going to happen Joe spoke about it recently on the pod cast said Kanye wanted him to go to his Church ( cult) and Joe was like nah Sundays are family time laughing then basically said its not something he'd be into doing,

    I got the feeling Kayne wants the interview to controlled and Joe isn't willing to bend to all his demands,

    Kanye good at making music and sometimes even that s amiss, he seems to think because he is good at that he should be aloud do what he wants ,

    Remember the time he throw his toys out of the pram and said he couldn't be a designer because he was black ,
    When in fact it was because his design's where pretty crap

    He is making money off his Yeezy's but he wanted to collaborate with top designed like dolce & gabbana,

    He then settled with Nike but then fell out with them because he wanted to change the swoosh on his runner ,wanted more money and loads more demands they would not give in to but they had none of it so he eventually left for Adidas , he even went as far as writing a diss song about Nike called "FCTS"

    The guys thinks he is way above his own station , probably doesn't help that his wife has the same attitude, I'd go as far to say she only married him to heighten her own status ,

    Dan Crenshaw is interesting enough. I disagree with him on almost everything. The height of jingoism.

    Anyone listen to the Neil DeGrasse-Tyson and/or Steve Aoki shows? Want to see if they’re worth my while. Does NDGT talk about the controversy he got caught up in recently?

    Listened to NDGT, was fairly frustrating to be honest. He kept talking over over Joe, some of the comments on youtube are hilarious. Still some interesting stuff in it, so worth a listen imo.

    His previous podcasts with Rogan were much more enjoyable than this one. NDGT seems to have disappeared into an Einstein-Rosen bridge up his own posterior. What was once a genuine interest to spread knowledge seems to have morphed into an insufferable self-importance.

    "Well, yeah, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man"

    Two awful guests. NDGT is insufferable at the best of times. We get it Neil, you're highly intelligent. Your lack of self-awareness in feeling we need to be shown how intelligent you are, as often as you update us, is dumb.

    Steve Aoki is a moron who epitomizes everything that is wrong with electronic music and dance music culture. Don't even get me started on the cake stuff.

    Listened to half the Aoki one. Have to say there’s more to him than I thought but still it wasn’t worth spending another hour and a half, just a lad publicising his projects really.

    It's been a few months since I've listened to any Joe Rogan podcasts... has the standard of guests gone down? I've just lost all interest.

    Same, he hasn't had any guests that would draw me in. Been listening to audiobooks lately also, would recommend for commutes.

    Yeah I posted that before listening. Wasn't great. His new stand is brilliant though.

    I am new to his stuff so a kind of new listener. To be honest he produces too much content for me to listen to it all so I made the decision not to listen to anyone who is a stand up comedian - MMA fighter - or actor. Which seems to be 50% or more of his guests.

    That makes it very manageable and a lot of his other guests are pretty good. He had Penn Gillette on which I am looking forward to listening to. And just today I listened to a recent interview with a forest ranger turned forest drug crime enforcer. Enjoyed that one a lot - its just a life career story you would not really hear anywhere else.

    Neil DeGrasse Tyson was on, he's always a good guest.

    Jaysus - that NDT podcast was painful. I kept listening (up to 45 mins) as I thought Joe would ask him to stop interrupting but he didn't.

    NDT has done some damage there to his name I'd say. How did he not pick up that he was talking over Joe?? Joe was not hiding the frustration and was sitting right opposite him. Apart from that though - thought it was just a bad podcast - pretty boring, plenty of silences.

    Listenting to Dan Aykroyd now - he says he has had 4 UFO sightings...

    I'm the same - if the guest is a comedian, I opt out and equally if it's an MMA podcast. Luckily he has a broad variety of guests so there's plenty of other things to listen to.

    A friend of mine said the same regarding being up his own ass but he couldn't put his finger on why

    Why did you think he was ?

    I listened to it and didnt notice

    Just felt he really wanted to tell his story and Joe really wanted to listen

    Disrespectful in what way?

    I listened to the whole thing. I just don't find Snowden that interesting to be honest.

    Brian Grazer was enjoyable to listen to. His story about having to get his doctor to come over and sleep at the bottom of his bed after freaking out on a marijuana lollipop had me in stitches :pac:

    Not getting the Snowden disrespect thing? Didn't feel like there was any problem between them.

    I will say that Snowden wanted to say what he had to say and it felt like Joe was just coming along for the ride at times.

    There wasn't anything too earth shattering in the conversation, if you've followed the Snowden story before, but maybe it would have blown some people's hair back if they're a bit new to it.

    I found it interesting that when Snowden asked Joe to give his opinion on some of the things he was talking about Joe framed everything in the debate in a very libertarian US centric light - it was all about the goverment, the goverment, the state etc, etc - wheras the most worrying aspect of what Snowden was talking about, for me, was the intersection and cosy relationship between commercial and business interests with state security.

    Had to laugh as well that after a full two plus hours about the dangers of surveillance and data harvesting one of the sponsors of the show that Joe gave a good insincere plug to was some bullsht fitness tracker that basically exists to harvest all your lovely personal data - the irony was pretty acute.

    Agree. Didn't detect anything disrespectful in the interview. Rogan didn't interject much with questions which is maybe why some listeners are picking up a tone of disrespect. Snowden spoke at length without any interruptions which is why some listeners may wrongly interpret as self indulgent. There was also a time delay on the line which didn't help.

    I dunno.. maybe it's because he gives a lot of talks like that over the internet..the whole thing seemed like a very rehearsed performance..more a monologue than a discussion..in every respect, from the inflection in his voice for dramatic effect to the way he just had the whole thing seemingly mapped out..

    Maybe it is because he just does it a lot though..
    Or maybe he's a CIA psy-op..

    Pretty much I reckon. In actual fact I think he was quite aware of this and tried to bring Rogan in to the conversation quite a lot. For some reason Rogan seemed quite detached from the interview which is strange given the interviewee.
