Comment on What are the connotations of Joe Rogan?

I’m as far left as it gets and I listen to Rogan sometimes. It’s just a podcast for entertainment. He has a large platform and nobody controls him, people don’t like that so people talk a lot of shit about him. Some if it’s warranted, some if it’s just shit from people that are repeating what they’ve heard about him and don’t actually listen. Listening to it doesn’t mean anything, it’s just entertainment with a lot of different guests. Some you might find interesting or funny, some boring, and some completely crazy. Guy can make money however he wants, people can listen to whatever they want.

So go and listen to Matt Walsh then too? It's the same sort of right wing conspiracy crap pushing.

  Do you think that’s all Joe Rogan is? Because he is a lot more than that. Mostly he is just a shitty comedian that has his comedian friends on and talk about the same shit over and over again.
  
  I never heard of Matt Walsh and I don’t care to know who he is. I don’t listen to any right wing conspiracy crap. Why would I waste my time on that nonsense?

  Some people do things like this under the idea that you should keep your enemies close. Like you should always know your enemy and in order to do that, you have to be right there, listening to what the enemy is saying.

    Rogan doesn't consider them enemies, he considers them friends.

    Remember that fucking jackass, Ben Shapiro that he had on all the time?
    
    I think it was Tony Hitchcliff who’s a stand up who was on Rogans show fucking begging him to not have stupid ass Shapiro on anymore and Rogan kept defending the guy and Tony was just like, dude… that guy is a fucking dork who makes you look bad. Stop having him on.
    
    Honestly one of the funniest interactions I heard on the podcast where his actual friend is begging him to stop this nonsense and he just won’t do it.
