I keep telling people he may have been MMA, but he is a hollywood lib who knows that if you want ratings put on people the leftist media ignores. Its the same business model that Fox News used to stay on top for 20 years, (until they went woke). He saw crap with COVID censorship going on and put on people Steve Bannon already interviewed months ago. Personally, I’ve listened to him. There really aint that much interesting. Fail to see the draw to his program.

Joe demonstrated his knowledge of defensive martial arts with his statement IMHO.

Rogan talking about the Malone podcast and others said that he wants to put up a disclaimer that says "...these people and the opinions that they expresses are contrary to the consensus of experts".

What an establishment tool.

I agree with you. Rogan didn't apologize for having these doctors on his show. He apologized for hurting people's feelings. He also pointed out that Spotify came up with the labeling idea and he's ok with it.

re: Rogan knows better than PJ Media how to keep $100MM, and everyone flipping out over the "warning" on select broadcasts......guess what happened to sales of those labeled albums when record companies started slapping the "explicit content" label on them?

Yep, sales took off.

Rogan and Spotify just locked in gains.

Bongino has rumble and he has his own payment processing system.

Both are open to be used by anyone who signs up.

An actual bank might be a problem if they all cut them off.

When I was a youngster in the 80s, I bemoaned missing all the great rock acts...Hendrix, the Beatles, Zeppelin, The Who with Moonie, Skynyrd. The greats were gone and I'd never see a great band again.

So I whined and complained as I saw Frank Zappa 3x, Van Halen in 80-82, Live Aid in Philadelphia, Stevie Ray Vaughn, The Who with Entwistle numerous times, Anthrax in the early years, David Lee Roth, Buddy Rich, Sarah Vaughn, and countless other bands that today are considered classic rock.

Today, the little DoodleBobs are amazed at the band's I've seen. But at the time, had I put my head in the sand, my short sightedness would have caused me to miss great things.

Limbaugh is dead. RIP. The next great innovator is right here amongst us. Maybe it's Rogan, or maybe it's someone else (I prefer Andrew Wikow to Limbaugh). We will miss him or her - and liberty will be lost - if we sit shiva for years.

He didn’t push back. He signaled weakness.

Joe Rogan is doing what’s best for Joe Rogan.

He doesn’t give a hoot about converting leftists to Conservatives.

Big mistake ? He doesn’t want potential guests boycotting him.

“Joe Rogan Apologized and Now He’ll Have Hell to Pay”

Yeah, he’s got you on his a**, harpy. Go try journalism.

I disagree. And signaling is cheap.

I'll wait to see what happens next time after a controversy.

And just like when Leno had Hugh Grant on, Rogan has effectively guaranteed higher listenership.

Exactly. Joe likes money and to be popular and now forgiving.

I thought Rogan got a dig in on N Young telling the story of being a security guard and quitting in the middle of a shift because people that went to Neil Young Concerts were destroying property and getting rowdy.

Says a lot about what Neil Young offers the world

"I’m going to go out on a limb and guess Joe R knows more about how to keep his brand strong than PJ Media."

Rogan played the "I'm only an entertainer" card. He gave his enemies a means to discredit him.

Exactly right. This was a non-apology apology, and slapping a Scarlet Letter “warning” on his stuff will only increase the draw.

He’s invited the woke crowd onto his show before, and they always get their sh*t shoved in. They rarely come on because their lies won’t fly, Joe calls them on it, and Jamie fact-checks the BS real-time.

The bigger picture is that the left and the M$M is scared of Joe Rogan, he has a bigger audience than CNN, MSNBS, etc. combined.

Joe won this round, Spotify too. But the woketards have their knives out for him and they aren’t done. Expect more dirty tricks.

"I am going to do my best in the future to balance things out. I’m going to do my best. But my point of doing this is always just to create interesting conversations, and ones that I hope people enjoy. So if I pissed you off, I’m sorry."

Never say you're sorry. You're admitting you've been wrong. He's going to regret conceding he needs "balance". He damaged his brand.

The big picture!

This is not about Rogan!

This is about silencing the next Rogan/Limbaugh etc..!

If you don’t fall within the elites narrow margin of
communicating your ideas, you will not be allowed
to speak, PERIOD.

Joes playing the crowd. Projects he’s just a simple guy who smart people like sharing their views with. He picks his battles carefully

One of the only voices right now that can oppose nonsense out in the open and get away with it.

He has such a toe hold on doing what he wants I think we can only be thankful for whatever lies he exposes. The left offers him more targets than the right.

I don’t get the whole joe rogan deal. I tried listening and he is long winded and quite boring. I am glad he makes a hundred million but it really freaks me out that so many people are entertained by boredom. He must say the f word a lot. 3 hours? Who has time to listen to someone for 3 hours?
