Who is Joe Rogan? Educate me please!!

Listening to Rogan right now rave about Floyd beating Shane Mosley in his "prime." But it isn't just made up facts Joe brings to a discussion.. Expect plenty of adjectives and phrases like "destroyed" or "horrifying" and "the best ever" or "the worst beating of all time" so he can really drive things home.. :lol1:

You seem smart. Smart enough not to get my information fed to me third hand through average idiots. If I'm going to form an opinion about something I go to the source.

I imagine he banged heaps of the hotties that were on fear factor...and i give him props for that.

I'm m blessed beyond belief. VJ Anma called me, said cuz he knew me... His life is amazing... I cried... Always cry for love..surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life... I'm blessed. Fantastic. Happy for you. :)

All good, sir. How's the day/night treating you? Everything good? I'm m blessed beyond belief. VJ Anma called me, said cuz he knew me... His life is amazing... I cried... Always cry for love..surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life... I'm blessed.

Thanks my brother... All good, sir. How's the day/night treating you? Everything good?

In the context A-Wolf used it in, it means sarcastic or disingenuous. At least I assume that's how he was using the word. Thanks my brother...

Alex Jones: It is literally all spelled out in Rogan's podcast. At one point, you literally have to tune him out content-wise bc he's raving about Chem trails and alien politicians controlling us, and the government controlling the weather (not humans ****ing up the climate, literally govt controlling the day-to-day weather). So, and bc you recognized my flare for intellectual curiosity, I should tell you that I did not see him as black & white as a person. I don't know him personally. But he did willfully disclose a lot about his personal life, and I can only take him at his word. He comes across, on that podcast & in other interviews, as an obsessive researcher with an incredible recall of facts; dude has a steel trap for a brain. The problem is, and there are many, is that he draws the wrong conclusions from them. NASA faked moon landing footage = NASA faked moon landing. No it doesn't. There are a number of explanations for this. Point being, he draws extreme, alarmist conclusions from his compulsive desire to destroy power structures (to start his own btw (those are his own words) Shall I continue with Milo taking 30 minutes to explain why him getting raped by a priest when he was a pre-teen was completely excusable on the priest's part. And he was serious. This is an example of an extremist viewpoint of an issue that is (admittedly) not always black & white. As a liberal, I am 100% in favor of absolute, freedom of speech, and so I always support people like Milo's right to speak. So, here again, I also took a lot away from this podcast. This was incidentally around the time that he was getting crushed under the weight of his own persona he'd created. It seemed over those two hours that he had trouble knowing when to take which position. But again, if you want me to list the positions I vehemently disagree with him & Graham Han**** on, then it would be a lot easier for you to have at least watched these guys on a podcast or read one of their books. Hanc0ck is as triggered as they come. He believes that aliens communicate with us through DMT, and that is how the ancients knew to build the pyramids. And that's interesting enough, but then he argues that long before the Egyptians, humans figured out how to communicate telepathically. Come on, man. I can keep going if you wish, but I hope this makes the point. No. Those are TALKING POINTS. You have not researched these guys. It's obvious. You and Rogan would make a good couple.

Hey TS, This, right here exactly. If you're anything like me, this is precisely the response that you'd expect from a simpleton--someone without nuance in his life--an adult who nicknamed himself A-Wolf, and who spends his life posting over 5,000 times on a boxing forum in just over five years. How the **** is that even possible? Well, take a gander at the bipolarity of his thinking, and it's entirely possible that you're listening to a dim-witted obsessive human. Now, back to the intellectually curious among us--which is different than being an intellectual (as our very own A-Wolf neglects to understand). In any event, in no way, shape, or form does Rogan ever claim "expertise" on anything outside of BJJ, bow-hunting, cars, et al. What he does instead, and to answer your question, is he uses his platform to get specialists & experts in fields he's interested in, to sit in a laid-back environment with him and converse (and yes, sometimes they share a joint together, so I guess that makes him a pothead now?). There's no script, no rules, no structure. And sometimes it's a fail. The ones where he has his friends on are usually just them talking **** about stuff in the news while drinking beers & getting stoned. It's what my friends and I do, and our opinions are sometimes viable, and sometimes stupid. He happens to record them; I skip these. His most recent with Jamie Foxx was awful bc Jamie, as it turns out, is about as shallow as it gets when you dig beneath the surface. His early podcasts were MISERABLE for many reasons (yes, including his own ignorance) because, well, as you'd expect, his brain was learning how to use this platform, and how to ask better questions, & feel more comfortable defending his own positions. He's often the first to admit when he's wrong, and he's does it publicly. I can point you to many occasions just off the top of my head. And for those who claim that he's wrong about stuff: What person in the world (yourself included) do you know who is right about everything? Not one. I tune in from time to time specifically to disagree. His obsession with Graham Hanc0ck, Milo, Alex Jones, & other conspiracy theory wingnuts is interesting bc it gives these people a platform for him to expose them as the hucksters that they are. If you're a huckster, the Rogan podcast is often the perfect Chinese finger trap for your position. The way he strategically set the stage for Alex Jones to self-destruct before the very eyes of the viewing public was rhetorical brilliance. All of that to say, I'm obsessed with astrophysics, health, nutrition, evolutionary biology, psychedelics, and a host of socio-political issues. If you get curious, his podcasts I'd highly recommend are: 1) Lawrence Krauss 2) Neil Degrasse Tyson (the most recent one) 3) Brian Cox 4) Dr Carl Hart 5) Dr Ronda Patrick You'll come out of each of these so much smarter than you went in--guaranteed. And it will dispel ANY of the nonsense you read on this read. A-Wolf, on the other hand already gots all da intellek he be needing. :lol1: Ok, Mr. Intellectual. Let's test your intellect. WHY are the people you referred to as "wingnuts" not to be taken seriously? What is your BASIS for that kind of statement? You're proving me right already but I'll let you step completely in the sh*t you're already toes deep in. Answer the question.

His podcast can be entertaining when there's a good guest But... while he knows a fair amount about boxing and boxing history, his knowledge really lacks depth and detail. Everytime he discusses boxing you say to yourself "actually..." its like he's going off fuzzy memories when talking boxing but he speaks very matter of fact-ly Just take everything he says with a grain of salt and he can be entertaining

He's alright. That Ronda episode will haunt him to his grave.

From 2006... Joe Rogan - "Who's Marshall Faulk? Dude, I hate sports. Unless you're Micheal Jordan, I have no f*cking idea who you are. But I'll talk, I know little tiny Mexican Boxers..."

Here you go lmgtfy.com/?q=Joe+Rogan

Jim Lampley of MMA, LoL. Just promotes their company guys, the fanboiys don't realize that. I used to catch up his talks on youtube but then I realized he was just DELUDED. He used to praise Ronda sky high, saying stupid stuff like she would beat half of the male mma guys easy. After she lost he acted like he always been saying Ronda was a bum LoL. You don't know Joe Rogan. He's actually the only/the most impartial UFC employees. Rogan is for the fighter. Rogan has always, and still does, speak well about other MMA promotions --Pride, Strikeforce, Bellator-- which were technically "rivals" to the UFC. He got carried away with the "Ronda can beat male fighters" commentary... and he admitted it. He's not the guy who runs from his comments, or who can't admit he was wrong. P.S. I hate Dana White and the way the UFC screws the athletes.

I think he's alright. Iv'e never heard any of his stand up, but i like him doing commentary and i also like his podcast.

Pick an episode, any episode... https://www.youtube.com/user/PowerfulJRE/videos?sort=p&flow=grid&view=0 He's an outstanding podcaster... He's a great color commentator... He's a mediocre comedian (at best)...

He had a thing about passion, depression and following your dreams or something to that extent that I actually enjoyed. It was fairly inspirational in a very relatable way.
