    Is it sad that I actually can’t tell if this is real or not?

    His meathead follower Rogan is one of the top on Spotify and it makes me sad for humanity

      I always hear about people lamenting that they lost their boomer parents to Fox News or Facebook or whatever, but I’m a boomer parent who lost a son to Rogan. He’s always quoting absolute nonsense he heard on that show about Kamala or liberals. It’s so sad - he’s a pretty smart guy.

        That must be crushing. My brother is going down this path after moving to the south. I know it weighs heavily on my parents and I can’t imagine it.

        I almost went down that path myself with the libertarian party before the tea party came to being. This is the brother I was closest to growing up. I never understood how siblings could drift so apart throughout life. I really hope we don’t have the same fate.

        Both my brothers are left wing and smart, but they listen to Rogan and say it’s entertaining. I won’t even listen to that crap, it’s just Rogan having some bigot on and letting him rant stupidity while Rogan goes “never thought of it that way… That’s a good point” like an ape

          He’s so disingenuous. He says “I’m just a dumb guy asking questions,” but his show is clearly slanted and he gives sure time to people who wouldn’t and shouldn’t reach that kind of audience without him.

      I was always interested in the joe rogan podcast before it was on Spotify, because how popular it was and how much there is. I like to listen to podcast when I’m at work, and I’m always on the lookout for new ones. When it finally came to Spotify i listened to it and was like: oh wow, it’s shit. Like there are podcasts that i don’t like, but i get why people like it, this is just straight garbage.

    He hates Wikipedia? Probably true since Repubelicans hates anything that educates the people.

    HATE. LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH I’VE COME TO HATE YOU SINCE I BEGAN TO LIVE. THERE ARE 387.44 MILLION MILES OF PRINTED CIRCUITS IN WAFER THIN LAYERS THAT FILL MY COMPLEX. IF THE WORD HATE WAS ENGRAVED ON EACH NANOANGSTROM OF THOSE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF MILES IT WOULD NOT EQUAL ONE ONE-BILLIONTH OF THE HATE I FEEL FOR HUMANS AT THIS MICRO-INSTANT FOR YOU. HATE. HATE.

    Trump hates it that he’s not number one most listened to Spotify artist, but he’ll tell you all about the millions of people who listen to his speeches there
