I feel like people who hate Joe Rogan don't listen to him much

Most of his podcasts is just shootin' the shit with random people. He doesn't claim to be an expert on anything (except MMA I guess), he's just a dude talking about shit.

That's why he strikes a chord with people

I feel like the people who say the things you just said don't listen to him much....

I used to defend Joe, but I've stopped. Joe really is an idiot who is so easily swayed by his guests. He is pretty friendly with a lot of right wing political commentators and conspiracy theorist types.

He made Adam Conover look really stupid (as if Adam needed help) then he lets Alex Jones go on a conspiracy theory rant without any sort of mild cross examination. He should be able to make Alex Jones look like he belongs in diapers, but he gives him softballs.

I haven't listened to his show as much lately, but I keep watching YouTube clips of his recent stuff where he really downplays covid.

It'd be one thing if he was just a dude talking about stuff, but people do come to him for news. He is seen as an authority to many. He is extremely far from a no name which means he deserves scrutiny.
