Heh... he LOOKS dumb. He says things that seem dumb. He has an underbite. He talks like he’s dumb. Then, he goes and asks a question that is incredibly apt.
Then he has people on that are interesting. He seems interested in the truth.
The dude is an enigma to me.
The resistance that is trying to take him down though... this is no joke. We’re going to have to deal with this folks.. steele yourselves.
For the first time ever, I went to Spotify and listen to Joe Rogan yesterday on my seven and a half hour drive from Chicago to my home in South Central kentucky. There were two episodes. One was with a female MMA fighter and the other was with an expert on ancient geology. The latter was far more interesting to me and even brought up some things I already knew about my home of Eastern Washington for so many years.
And you are absolutely correct. I wasn’t able to watch him but I was able to listen on Spotify and he didn’t sound all that bright, that is in his voice inflection he didn’t. In his words he did at important times. This controversy has actually caused me to seek him out and listen to him and I find him fascinating. I listen to one of his interviews with Jordan Peterson right now.
On a related note, I also listen to his explanation of the two episodes that got everybody all riled up about him, and that is a joke. Assuming he’s telling the truth, he had actual experts on the subject come on his show and say what they believed, and people thought that that was misinformation. That is pathetic. It’s like the people that said Rush Limbaugh was a racist, simply because someone famous said he was. What a world...
