I had already devoted most of my podcast time elsewhere when the Spotify deal happened, but that was certainly the end of the 2nd era of joe, the normalization to facilitate sell out.
The Dan Aykroyd episode was particularly sad. Possibly the last time i attempted a full episode with hope for a good one.
Tbf isn’t that what chat shows do? Famous person shilling their latest film/product/project? Can’t hate on him too much for that without also taking on pretty much every celebrity from the last 50yrs.
Now rogan obviously isn’t your traditional chat show but this seems pretty damn tame compared with his usual shit.
Imo, joe has gone downhill since the beginning.

Oh no. Don’t tell me Elwood Blues has gone off the far end. I know he’s a bit of a UFO nut but hopefully he’s not gone full rogan!
Sadder. Full shill. Just was spouting bullshit abiut his alcohol brand, probably a tequilla ¿because TQ amd the blues go together?
And then just rehashed some already debunked UFO shit Dan had been clinging to from some Bolivian blowout in the 70s.
Just was an infomercial for Aykroyd to try to sell whatever crap products he put his name on at the time.

The Oprahfication of Rogan was definitley a thing.
This episods just was one particular fart that peeled the veneer from the facade, leaving me staring at a stinking manufactured pile of turd.
