I know of someone who says they listen to Joe Rogan podcasts (political I assume) but I don’t know what this means or what the connotations are. Both this person and I live in east asia.

    Which is the obvious problem: you know not to like when guests like Alex are on, but Joe doesn’t do enough to push back against other more palatable bullshit artists like Musk, so you end up thinking better of someone who’s just gotten one over you and Joe.

      I don’t know why I have to come to a judgment over anyone for a random JRE appearance. It’s not like I treat the podcast as a good primary reference source on any topic. Musk has been quite capable of demonstrating his character flaws in a very public ways since his appearances on the show.
