I imagine its the casual misinformation by the bucket load. You gotta know what to expect going in. This isn't some kind of news cast. I'm not gonna take a word AJ says seriously. I'll enjoy it for it is. It's funny seeing Rogan trying to be sensible one.

Rogan did a good job of keeping him contained. Was a standard overly long Rogan episode with Jones dipping in from time to time.

I've always felt sorry (not a whole lot mind you) for Alex Jones. Same for Glenn Beck. Just consumed by it all. No way to live.

The uproar on Twitter to this podcast is unbelievable. People with "free speech activist" in their bio calling for the episode to be deleted and Joe to be cancelled.

The same people who have never listened to Joe but post about him being "Alt-Right" and want him taken down because he "gives a platform" to people with opinions different to theirs.

I listened to the first hour of Matthew McConaughey - and I really enjoyed it. He is a bit on the inspirational motivational speaker buzz and freely admits it, but he made some really good points. Plus he likes 9 and a half hours sleep a night - great

After about 45 minutes I got tired of him talking about himself but that's cool, I got some inspiration from the first bit.

I am listening now to the interview with Glenn Greenwald. I don't really know much about Greenwald except sort of about the Snowden stuff which he covers in the beginning.
Whatever about his alliances, and I think people can legitimately be a mix of all kinds of opinions, he has been recognised as a very good journalist At about 37 minutes Joe and Glenn start to talk about the Hunter and Joe Biden issue and how it is being COMPLETELY ignored by most popular media, how the New York Post is locked out of its Twitter account, and so on. And I agree with all of it. It has become a political thought crime to dare to think anything bad about Joe Biden. But my intuition is really zinging with this Biden corruption stuff. Something is going on there.
It's a good segment. It goes from 37 minutes to 47 mins directly and then after that for a good while there is talk in and around the issue of Biden generally..

I'm 1.5 hours into it so far. One of the best podcasts from Joe Rogan, at least for me

Whatever your thoughts are on Kanye, the above is a crazy statement to make.

There are so many talented producers out there, most of them unknown.
Kanye sits in the same league as most of them in terms of his ability to produce 3 minutes loops and add vocals on them.

Innovation is something completely different

I know this is a thread about Joe Rogan, but Kanye as done much more than what you're describing.

For example, his album 808s & Heartbreak, despite being a critical & commercial disappointment at the time, has gone on to be hugely influential in Hip Hop and beyond. The album features very few samples or loops.

In any case, producing a 3 minute loop and adding vocals is an artform in itself. And he's extremely good at it!

You made two separate statements in your initial post - the first is about people attaching a point of view to him based on the names he hosts, rather than having any knowledge of his own position on those subjects. Totally right there, his own political/social leanings should be based on what he actually says in these interviews, and beyond.

This above point doesn't come up in the article.

The second statement is about the rights or wrongs of providing a massive platform to potentially destructive points of view. I think this is a pretty valid point of discussion, particularly within the context brought up in the article, where it mentions the possibility that he's doing it from a more cynical cash-grab point of view. Now, it's a point of view I disagree with personally, as I think there's a place for dissenting and contrarian opinions, as even if you disagree with them at least you gain an insight into them. And debate and disagreement are what often lead to progress, as you find the little pieces of common ground or see things from a different perspective. But, there is an argument to be had that some points of view hold such little value that giving them a platform as huge as this does more harm than good. Again, I'm not sure I agree, but I think its a very valid position to hold, particularly if the interviewer provides validation, or doesn't challenge them effectively.

While I understand where you're coming from, the questions in the second half of your post can be answered by taking the context of the show into consideration. Once you do, you realise that the concerns being brought up by these people are moot. I bet they didn't actually listen to the episode.

I'm not a Jones fan. I don't subscribe to his ideas and I think when you make extraordinary claims you should have to back them up with extraordinary evidence. But you can't try to ban the likes of Rogan from having people like him in his show.

The "conservation" you speak of should be about the validity of claims, not the right for someone to have certain guests on his show.

jam_mac_jam · 30-10-2020 6:55pm

One of the reasons for his huge popularity is that he interviews a wide range of people. That's why people listen to him.

I think Alex Jones is a lying **** but that doesn't mean he shouldn't be on a podcast. All those people are doing is providing free advertising to Joe Rogan. The minute you want to ban something it becomes more interesting.

It's written into the contract that he can have the guests on that he wants so I think this is going to backfire.

I think there is a backlash against this attempt to control who we can listen to. I don't agree with Joe Rogan on a lot but I admire that he is not listening to this. I suppose he has enough listeners he can ignore it.

Yeah, I'm flat out against the 'banning' of any form of expression or idea, ever.

It's a funny switch, where what used to be the remit of right wing fascism -- book burnings, the suppression of public speakers etc -- is starting to become a left wing tool in a very dangerous way. It's one of those things where some people really need to take a step back and look at the larger repercussions of what they're suggesting. Liberalism means being tolerant of other points of view, even if those views themselves are conservative.

But anyway, I think it's valid that these people have these points of view against Rogan's guests, and then it's equally valid that they be met with the responses above. It's not a bad discussion to be had anyway. Ultimately it's all going to come down to Rogan's contract, which I'd imagine he's working within and not breaking by having the likes of Jones on.

completedit · 30-10-2020 7:30pm

I'm always skeptical of people who wouldn't be interesting if you didn't know about their fame/status. I love Kanyes music and some things he has done in fashion but he's not a genius. He's a relatively creative guy with a scatter gun mind.

Broadly I'd agree... though I think the manner of their fame is important. For instance, someone who becomes famous sort of arbitrarily by being on The Voice or something, doesn't automatically have something interesting to offer.

But there's a type of creative famous person that can be interesting to hear from... I think 'creative' is the key part. If someone has created something - beit music, art, film, literature etc - that taps into the shared public subconscious enough to make them famous, then I think there's probably more to be learned from them by digging in, at least for a short-to-medium period of time. Whether you agree with them or not, those sorts of people are often really dialed into the 'feeling' of the masses. I think this is also why some artists flag so badly a little while later, as they're no longer connected to the zeitgeist. And why some artists - Bowie being the king - are so special, transcending generations.

For Kanye, I think he'd have been more interesting to listen to a decade ago.

Joe Rogans Kanye West Interview In 1 Minute

humberklog · 20-11-2020 2:47pm

Anyone notice that the latest episode Rawlings/Chapelle dropped on Podcast Addict but hasn't yet on Spotify?

I tend to still listen to it on PA because (I could be wrong on this but...) PA seems to download 10 minutes sections so if you go through an area with no coverage the pod will continue to play for a while but on Spotify you need constant coverage so it drops off more often.

Yah I noticed this. Despite the fact that Joe tweeted saying "available now on Spotify"

deep_dish · 23-11-2020 11:06am

I thought the Rawlings/Chapelle episode was only ok. Maybe I bought into everyone's hype having Chapelle on, but it was a normal enough episode.

Sugarlumps · 24-11-2020 10:34am

Skipped all of Rawlings, offers nothing.

Alf Veedersane · 29-11-2020 11:25am

Mic 1972 · 06-12-2020 9:04pm

I found the new episode with Jacques Valle very frustrating. you could clearly tell how Joe wanted to get specific information out of him and your man keep going around in circles. You don't go to Joe Rogan bragging about how your new UFO documentary is going to chance history and literally you have nothing to offer, not a single piece of evidence.

yourdeadwright · 07-12-2020 12:50pm

I really enjoyed the Tom Green one ,
There was nothing really to it but I still fund it enjoyable and I don't really know why ,
I never liked Tom Green as a comic but he came across as a nice guy ,

I'm 90% through it. I thought it was poor too. Does Valle understand what an interview is? Why is he there. Basically saying he knows stuff but isn't going to tell us anything. Very annoying.

I was checking Spotify for JRE podcasts around *I think* 23rd, 24th and 25th and I didn't see any new episodes but last night I notice that 2 had and are marked as dropping on the 23rd and 24th.
Did I just not see them or did they not drop until yesterday?

Agreed, there are far too much comedians on the show now. Same things talked about every time and have to listen to Joe's views on the same issues again and again.

I got plenty of good hours of listening out of Joe's podcast over the years and learned a few things along the way so I'm grateful for that. But at this stage, I've heard his views on the same things over and over so many times that I almost know what he's going to say next.

I think we may have hit peak Rogan a few years ago. Many of the podcasts, as you say, are with other "comedians" who would be better classed as celebrities or entertainers because you could listen to them talk for 3 hours without breaking a smile.

Didn't follow him to Spotify and not really missing it TBH.

vafankillar · 01-02-2021 1:44am

does anyone actually know how his podcast is going after the switch over? were his listening numbers affected much at all?

tbh I never treated the rogan podcast as a traditional podcast, usually just dipped in and out of different clips, always watching on youtube. still watch a few of the clips uploaded to youtube but haven't even looked him up on spotify.

He's had Ira Glasser on, Tulsi Gabbard on in the last two weeks.

He's also had scientists, lads abducted by aliens, comedians, documentary makers..........

I tend to watch podcasts like JRE and Your Mom's House/2 Bears. The facials and reactions make it much more enjoyable. For some reason Spotify's app on the Xbox doesn't do video so I'm not bothered sticking on the JRE.
Spotify are learning quickly that their idea of how podcasts could make them money may not work out.
