I know of someone who says they listen to Joe Rogan podcasts (political I assume) but I don’t know what this means or what the connotations are. Both this person and I live in east asia.

    I used to watch his show on YouTube, not for Joe, but for the guests. I was pretty selective in who’s episodes I’d watch so I feel like I avoided a lot of the bullshit by default. But I did watch some of the real crazies just to see how crazy… very… the answer is very.

    I haven’t watched or listened to any of his stuff in a long time, probably since the start of Covid where he would push really hard that it’s fake and that freedoms were being impinged. We had some pretty tough lock downs in Australia but the vast majority of us could see why. What Joe was saying was being echoed by “the cookers” so he lost me.

    “The cookers” (as in Meth, as I understand it) is the nickname of the conspiracy theorists.

      Oh, he got way more unhinged during and since Covid. That’s when his conspiracy craziness took off for the stratosphere.
