Rogan promoted the conspiracy theory that Epps was an “agent provocateur” for the feds, a baseless claim that has led to a defamation suit against Fox News.

    It’s a fact that Joe Rogan is an idiot.

    He even said so himself. Literally: “I’m just an idiot, you shouldn’t listen to me.” He said that in a stand up special. It’s still true, too, so I don’t know why people even listen to him. He specifically requested people not to.

      Was he not the guy who got millions of parents twisted up about litter boxes in schools only to find out he made the whole thing up?

      Do people listen to Joe himself? The only times I’ve ever listened to his podcasts is when I’m interested in whatever guest he has on.

        This is really the only way to consume his media. People would be wrong if they said he wasn’t entertaining during his interviews. He is exactly like I was when I was a burn out stoner, and I find that hilarious.

        But people forget he isn’t an intelligent or educated political commentator. He’s literally just a ‘Joe’ and I wish he would understand that his opinion impacts millions of dipshits who hang on every word he says.
