Considering the quality of the information and presentation in the corporate press is so terrible, in comparison Rogan does a stellar job. I disagree with your characterization, too. He has on people from all angles, including e.g, Dr. Sanjay Gupta from CNN, and he gives them a fair shake. And yes, considering how "rare" vaccine adverse reactions are supposed to be, knowing multiple people who've experienced significant adverse reactions is quite unusual. Worth talking about even.

He has people from all angles, but most of them are right wingers. He brings on a Liberal every now and then and if they don’t hate the Democratic Party he hardly lets them talk and uses the typical right wing gish gallop tactic to pretend he’s owned them at the end of the podcast. Rogan does a stellar job, lmao @ that. He does a stellar job pushing the current GOPs agenda. Because he’s able to have people like you arguing that isn’t what he’s doing.

  You don’t sound like you listen to him, your post indicates you don’t listen to him and are just repeating what an uninformed critic smears him with.

    Bullshit I listened to Joe religiously until 2018, like every day he put out a podcast. I realized around that time that he was beating a strawman about “crazy” democrats while promoting a trove of right wingers and disinformation. He couldn’t go an episode without bringing up how some tumbler person thinks there’s (n+1) genders and when he did bring on a “democrat” it was someone like Abby Martin or Tulsi Gabbard who hates the Democratic Party. With this, combined with the cringe ass “intellectual dark web” bs, it became increasingly obvious that Joe Rogan wasn’t some moderate but instead that he was pretending to be one while pushing a right wing narrative to his viewers under the guise of “just asking questions” and “how do I know I disagree until I talked to them?” Your accusation is typical of Rogan fans who want to shutdown any criticism of his very obvious grifter status.

      Yet you state he's got a "GOP agenda"? I don't believe you at all. Hes already contracted by Spotify, what you're spewing is more generic anti-Joe smearing that shows me that you never listened to him.

        Yeah okay. Your Dave Chappelle comment proves you are arguing in bad faith. You know I’m right and that he’s a right wing grifter posing as a moderate, that’s why you’re strawmanning about me not “actually have ever listened to him.” I saw through him just as I easily see through you, I’m just upset it took me four years of listening to him everyday before it became obvious.

        You only talk about politics, its so boring that you don't have any real talking points aside from regurgitating some complaints someone else had that you don't think up for by youself, and trying poorly to pretend you ever listened to the show. You used a talking point someone else made and haven't listened to him ever, why is that worth lying about when you can't name any episodes and just named politicians someone else listed to justify the conclusion you are pushing?

        I’ve named half a dozen episodes. Abi Martin, Tulsi Gabbard and Eric Weinstein are fake democrats he brought on to talk about how crazy the Democratic Party is. Jordan Peterson he brought on 4 times in 2017 alone to argue about the trans issue and “cultural Marxism” (he brought Ben Shapiro on to do the same.) I’m not doing this with you, you are arguing in bad faith because you know Joe has a right wing agenda. I don’t have to lie or copy what anyone else said because I listened to it first hand and for a time I (regretfully) actually fell for his “the democrats have gone crazy” routine. Joe Rogan painting Hilary Clinton as evil (he constantly brings up her paraphrasing Caesar at the death of Gadaffi) convinced me to vote for Johnson in the 2016 election. Like I said, I don’t know if he’s paid by a GOP/conservative organization but it’s awfully convenient for them that the largest podcast just happens to push an exact replica of their narrative.
