I’m a bit concerned about how much my husband has been watching his videos, but he’s a hard man to argue with. I want to understand what it is Joe Rogan is saying, but I don’t want to give the man my viewership. How/where do I get the info I can use to debate my husband?

    Don’t kid yourself, you “giving” him a few views isn’t gonna make any difference, taking a principled stance on it is like peeing in the ocean.

    Just watch a few of his videos or listen to some of his podcasts, instead of letting other people give your their viewpoint on him just get your own viewpoint, do it without any bias either… pick an episode that you are interested in pick something you don’t agree with and pick something that could go either way. You might agree with some stuff and not other things but at least you determined that for yourself

    I used to listen to his podcast but lost interest plus I’d only listen to the stuff I had any interest in, science and technology stuff. He had some odd views/stuff I didn’t agree with but that’s living in reality you aren’t always gonna agree with people.

      Ignore this, OP - this is classic cryptofascist bullshit. “Give it an honest, unbiased chance! I used to like it - but not the Nazi stuff! Which doesn’t exist, btw”

      Yeah, Joe Rohan is a fascist. Don’t give him views and don’t believe anyone who talks like this about him, as they are also a fascist.

        If the OP was looking for someone’s opinion on Joe Rogan to argue on the internet with some rando then sure don’t waste your time or energy or give Joe Rogan any clicks (once again he already makes enough money so your principled non click doesn’t mean shit but anyway) but it’s concerning her cuz her husband likes him… so ya maybe go a little above and beyond for your significant other.

        I never told OP to give Joe Rogan a chance I said to listen to him to see what her husband likes about him so she can form her own views on him and possibly understand what’s appealing to her husband about him or not, she can listen to him and think he’s a total shitstain… but pretty sure you actually have to listen to people to determine what they are all about… unless you have zero friends I’m not sure how you have met anyone with this amazing line of logic.

        OP should ignore jackasses like you who tell her what to think. And because I’ve listened to some Joe Rogan podcasts that makes me a facsist? Lmao get the fuck off the internet for a few hours you are on this shit way too much. Saying that, OP could also ignore what I’m saying too since she can choose to do whatever she wants instead of being a mindless clown that listens to terminally online ass sniffers throwing around words like they are verbal diarrhea…
