- Joe Rogan, speaking Thursday on his podcast, said he preferred RFK Jr. for president.
- By Friday, facing intense criticism from Donald Trump and his allies, the podcaster walked it back.
- “I’m not the guy to get political information from,” Rogan said in a social media post.
One of the most accurate things he’s ever said… but still not quite perfect.
FTFY
Isn’t that his whole schtick? “Don’t listen to me, folks. I’m just the meathead asking questions.”

This is exactly the point that I couldnt even listen to the geology/ultra-athlete/astronomy pods, which I really enjoyed listening to.
Once he couldn’t shut up about vaccines even though it was clear that nobody cared, it was a chore to listen to anything that he said.
he wasn’t even asking interesting questions to the interesting people anymore, he just had a very boring, pointless agenda to return his way to in spite of his guests.
I haven’t listened to any jre since the pandemic was still in full effect.
I tried once last year with a guest I really wanted to listen to, but within 10 minutes he start ed saying something way more right-wing than he ever had before covid.
oh I remember, he was listing the crazy amount of trans athletes that had won all these sports, and I was like well that can’t be true, and after checking, it was clearly not true according to the data.
did one trans weightlifter win one gold? Yes.
is one victory the statistical marker for trans athletes outperforming the other athletes in their field? Not at all according to the data we have.
and this wasn’t even a sports guest, it was some completely unrelated field.

To really blow your mind, Jones directly attacked Rogan multiple times because he wouldn’t bring him on his show again before he finally did and they were all buddy buddy.
Roe Jogan is a fucking moron, and I’m using that as a compliment.

I don’t think he’s ever had a plan - so while that’s his schtick, I don’t think it’s like a smokescreen or anything. He’s just some dumbass who wanted to start a show to interview interesting people and smoke weed. But, when you’re interviewing fringe political figures, racists, snake oil salesmen, etc. you have a journalistic duty that Joe Rogan: dumbass, was not prepared for and didn’t understand. Now he’s in over his head. People take him seriously, and he agrees with some of the crazy people he’s brought on because he’s a dumbass
Yeah he is basically just JAQing off.
In fact, you’re safe to believe the opposite of whatever bullshit this moron is spouting.
