    This is why I stopped watching Joe Rogan after he interviewed Chuck Palahniuk who wrote fight club, so one of the best dark humour writers around and all Joe wanted him to talk about was censorship, but Chuck knows it's no worse now than 2 decades ago and personnally for him as a ga y writer it was actually harder back then. At one point Chuck was telling a story of how he offended someone in an improv class he was at and Joe was like she should get over herself and Chuck a human being with emotions was like no I felt really bad, I tell jokes for people to laugh at, if people get upset especially the people you are telling the joke too, it's not a joke. Chuck was just too intelligent and empathetic for Rogan.

      I listened to his interview with Anna Lembke. She is a brilliant psychiatrist who specializes in addiction. He kept wanting to steer the conversation away from her points to talk about psychedelics. She handled him brilliantly. She let him have his moments, and then redirected the conversation back into the research and science that really mattered.

      He is the Tony to Jimmy Pesto... Fitting considering Rogan is conservative lite and Jimmy's voice actor was charged for Jan 6th involvement. He is a "yes man" for those with a plan. A nefarious one, but a plan. His plan is grip the coat tails of the movement until he gets to his destination or more likely falls and hits hard ground at terminal velocity.

    Ok there is actually a story behind the whole alien anal probe thing, so apparently Joe does as much research for his jokes as he does for his podcast. He could have even used the story to contextualize his joke- that a man claimed he was probed by an alien and nobody believed him, so if Joe were an alien, he could do it because it’s happened before. In fact, he could just make jokes about other real life stories where people have claimed to sexual experiences with aliens. There’s so much material there.
    Edit: especially with regards to psychedelics! Like, he could have said, “Yeah, man, I’ve had a few too many shrooms and thought I saw aliens, too.” Like… it’s so easy.

    I'm personally familiar with the contents of the book The Art of War.
    The passage Joe Rogan quoted:
    1) Isn't anywhere in the Art of War, or at least I'd love to know the chapter where they cited that.
    2) All the passage says is that when you're taking from someone else you have to commit fully. I mean, I can't find where he quoted that so I don't have any greater context. Why steal, though? Is Joe intent on invading a country? That first part of the passage is a non-starter for me; I won't be invading any countries any time soon.

    This is a little nitpicky, but Texas does have legal weed or at least Houston has several legal dispensaries around town. Of course they only sell Delta 9 THC, which is complete dogshit weed.

    Rogan has come to represent the very subset of the American community he is firmly ensconced in. The toxic masculinity, good ole boy, fly by the seat of their pants male crowd. His millions of subscribers makes no sense on a certain level. But the reality of evolving culture has bandied together those who steadfastly refuse to accept, or even simply try to understand whats happening. You could almost feel sorry for them. If they weren't doing their very best to drag everything down because they aren't getting their way. If we manage to survive the next decade the dustbin of history will be filled with Joe Rogan and his ilk.

    I know a couple of people who believe they were abducted by aliens. You can believe them or not, my point is, they never said anyone did anything to their butts. The reason we all know about the anal probe is that it was a favorite lazy punchline of 90's comedy writers, an group of people I thought Joe Rogan was deeply familiar with. Maybe he just smoked too much of that Texas weed and forgot that every single comedy show in the 90's used that joke at least once.

Trans men exist too, pero like damn we cant even have our own transphobia to ourselves regarding us without people thinking its SOLELY about the ladies ajshskdbs
    I absolutely adore this channel, i watch your videos all the time. PLEASE dont be like everyone else and pretend trans men dont exist and transphobia towards us is towards trans women, like.... It genuinely weaves the narrative that we have it better than trans women & nonbinary people and we dont, we legitimately do not have it better. We face this shit too and Joe Rogan was targeting us.

    - he doesn't support weed and implies preferring the state he's actually in to also have a strong ban on weed: audience laughs because they agree that the state should have the same laws; those who disagree can also laugh because they think oxymoron
