      The Left pushing Joe Rogan into an Alt-Right Echo Chamber was one of the worst disasters to happen to a Podcast. He used to hear from both sides, but then people started cancelling him and Left-leaning figures boycotted appearances on his show…

      So he went further and further right as those were now the only guests he had…

          No I’ve held this view for awhile…

            Fair enough. Honestly the only episode I ever watched was with Survivorman Les Stroud. Les seems absolutely convinced there is a rare ape species in Cascadia, and he convinced me. So many years ago. Now that I’m a stupid old man, I realize he was playing a bit the entire time.

            Here’s the whole thing. Which I haven’t watched in forever. I’m stoned. I’m not going to look for the part anymore.
