    Rogan just went full covid brainrot. I used to listen regularly during his early podcasts and especially the redban era when it was mostly just the wasteland feeling after Occupy Wall Street failed. Jamie curbed to show down the alt right pipeline and it felt less like comedians hanging out.

    It’s been weird where it’s been about a decade since I listened and it feels so remarkably different when I see a clip after he hits the news with some nonsense guest.

      Rogan claims Jaime was a lefty when he started the show, and Rogan pulled him right I believe. Unless that was a shitty joke he was making when I heard him say it one time.

        Maybe so. Though I feel it was likely just the natural result of clout chasing, which I think is more on Jaime.
