Man, Joe Rogan had his chance to be a unifying voice for America 3.5-4 years ago, but that fuck decided to take $$$ instead and now spouts non-stop garbage nonsense like this.

Rogan's been a dickhead for decades. Here he is appearing on Alex Jone's show Infowars back in 2010. According to Alex Jones, him and Rogan are great buddies and talk/text all the time.

Note, the podcast I linked is called KnowledgeFight and is two comedian types covering Infowars. Just letting you know if you listen to that you won't be exposed to a straight feed of Infowars nonsense, you'll have the filter of two smart and funny guys giving context and breaking things down in between clips.

It’d be really interesting to see what he’d be talking about if the Corona pandemic never happened.

It would still be "I'm just asking questions" about whether or not the moon landing happened and if lizard people exist.
