Joe Rogan is the single reason I won’t touch anything Spotify with a 20 feet pole anymore.
Yep, cancelled my 10-or-so-years subscription in part because of this clown. Tidal is just as good tbh
Same here. It was extremely easy to import my playlists. I can’t recommend Tidal enough.
This might be asking a bit much but could you try to sell me Tidal, if you got the time? I thought about quitting Spotify for some time but have not so far.
It also pays artists a larger cut than spotify.
It costs the same (or even less by now?), has virtually the same library and (if you are into that) offers higher quality music files. Oh and the biggest plus: doesn’t platform nazis like Rogan.
Does Kanye own tidal?
He left in 2017, according to goggle.
Sounds good. The last point brought it home.
For an alternative, I went to Deezer and love it. You should look at some comparisons to see if one is better for you.
Yeah thanks i will do so on the weekend. I have also not done so yet because i share a family account (that i pay for). I am sadly a person that fears conflict of any sort so wish me strength…
Sure thing. It’s the same service in pretty much every respect. Except without Joe Rogan profiting from it because of some insane $250 mil agreement to push his toxic right wing misinformation show.
They have the same music, the same podcasts, same general search and playlist features. They don’t ever try to upsell anything or play ads. They’re also $3 cheaper than Spotify.
Even without the Rogan nonsense, I would have switched to Tidal if I had known about it.
Oh! So you agree with Kanye then?
I must have missed the part where Tidal paid Kanye 100 million dollars for exclusive rights for whatever shit that birdbrain puts out.
Samesies.
Yep. I had enjoyed the podcast early, when it was aliens and comedians and good old government conspiracies. Not so much the mma stuff, whatever.
Then it got big and he started enjoying the smell of his own farts ( or something, allegedly). And stopped using the dmt. And it went downhill in a random walk down.
Them came spotify and i knew it was all crap from there on out. A few episodes here and there that make it to youtube ive watched , but meh.
Fleshlight Joe was great, it started going down hill when he started selling brain pills.
These kind of headlines really make us look like crackpot to the right. Joe Rogan is not one of the worst people ever.
He’s a self interested comedian and Podcaster who platforms people indiscriminately. The conservatives have made themselves available to him, and he has shows to make. He has plenty of liberal guests that don’t get confrontational or hostile interviews and most of his personal politics are pretty liberal.
Rush Limbagh, Alex Jones, Bill O’Reilly were all actually conservative right wing monsters.
Joe did buddy up to Alex pretty good.
Yeah, though in his (incredibly lukewarm) defense he seemed more interested in the batshit crazy aliens-control-the-government theories than the more pedestrian conservative stuff, although the line between the two has greatly narrowed over the years.
He’s making entertainment. But he also pushed back on him alot, or at least he used to. He really lets people go off though because it’s a 3 hour talk. He doesn’t have to keep them on track or concise. There are lots of episodes where crackpots come on and the reaction isn’t “this guy is right”.
It is a really long format show to watch and actually get context for if you don’t enjoy him at all. Too many people consider him a monster just from snippets or articles, which is why I wish people would chill with the hyperbolic claims.
He’s friendly with people who are nice to him and help him provide good content for his audience. Unfortunately, the more he’s villianized the more that becomes exclusively right wing shills. He’s not just gonna stop the show because the people willing to book skew right. He was booking Elon before he became so publicly problematic. He is also the reason Neil deGrasse Tyson was popularized. And he has research paper authors on fairly regularly. It’s a mixed bag.
It did create a truly amazing night of comedy.
spoiler
Stanhope wanted the biggest hole to dig himself out of, bored with winning over happy audiences
Joe was also on Alex Jones show for 9/11, so they’ve known each other for a pretty long time. Just back then Joe was just a buddy and not someone he could take that much advantage of. In addition, Joe pushed back more back then, but was still somewhat problematic anyway.
Inviting the loons from both sides of the aisle is why he was on horse paste during COVID. His lack of fact checking give oxygen to some of the worse people.
Really? One of the worst people ever? That’s the top of the chart; Adolf Hitler and Joe Rogan?
Garbage “journalism” lmao
It’ll be a groundbreaking interview from one of our times greatest journalists /s
Joe Rogan belongs in the Bag of Shit Hall of Fame. First ballot hall of famer, alongside Musk and Trump.
Don’t forget everyone’s favorite benzo brained bedmaker Jordy Peterson!
That might be the single worst photo ever.
Give them a break, They used all the polygons rendering their beer bellies. The car looks better in isolation.
The thing is that The Homer did everything that it was promised to do. Most of the things promised were stupid, but engineers came up with working solutions and the car actually functioned. It was just ugly and no one wanted such features.
The Cybertruck does not have as much going for it.
beer bellies
Pretty sure that’s a side effect of HGH
And from left to right ketamine, benzos, and DMT.
Hey now, no need for ketamine and DMT to be catching strays because a few morons are vocal about using them…
I’m not a big guy but it still surprises me every time I see how small Rogan is
I… does he have dwarfism? I don’t think I’ve ever seen him standing next to anyone else.
Is his Napoleon Syndrome the reason we’re in this mess?
He’s 1.72 so not too tall but way taller than a lot of guys. The other two are just taller.
Look up crappy that cyber truck looks behind them. The door panels are already rusting.
This moment right here, time travelers from the future. This moment.
I am also a time traveler from the future.
I am here now, in the past.
Tomorrow i will be in the future.
But I will have been in the past.
…
Collectively, they’ve done enough drugs to think yesterday was the future and believe themselves to be 20, tall, and fit.
And at least 2 of them have very questionable ties to Russia.
I agree, but I think that they all share the something of the same clown quality.
I actually liked Rogan on News Radio (90s sitcom) where he played an idiot-savant repairman who could fix anything electronic, but everyone acknowledged that it would burn the place down in 48 hours if left as is. For reference, Andy Dick was also on that show. He looked competent next to Andy Dick, but not nearly as funny.
I thought Rogan really found his calling on Fear Factor, where he just urged people to eat maggot infested cheese. If that show had gone on, how different would our world look like today??
We also watched the Apprentice, but I remember it as a comedy with Trump as the butt of the joke. Did no one else get that joke?
Musk - crap on a cracker. I’ve heard a lot of comments on how his “pedo guy” comment changed peoples’ perception of him, but holy crap. It should have come even a little bit before that. There were about a dozen children trapped in a cave in SE Asia with “hours to days” to survive, if they had even made it that long. This cave had something like a14 inch vertical choke point and muddy conditions throughout.* What does this lackwit do? This absolute knob releases footage of a prototype submarine in a swimming pool in California, being guided along by human divers and says “EMERGENCY RESPONDERS STOP WORK. I’M YOUR ONLY HOPE.”
Point being: This moron does not understand what a cave is. Probably coupled with “and no one is going to tell him that.”
That’s what podcasts are
Edit: morons on here are no different than the ones on reddit. Nuance means nothing if anything potentially has anything to do with politics, so dumb.
Edit: I will happily leave this so everyone with more than a few braincells can see how dumb Lemmy’s “masses” are
Maybe you’re the one with the shit podcast taste
I like dynamic banter, Conan needs a friend, you made it weird, harmontown, the weekly planet, smartless, and occasionally listen to the podcast version of the daily show. Other than the daily show podcast which isn’t really a podcast, it’s just an audio version of a real show; some of them are more organized or have a more narrow goal, but everybody on all those podcasts would agree they’re just shitting in a mic. The one thing they all have in common is they are meant to be funny and as unfunny as he is, Joe Rogan is a comedian that shits in the mic like every other host of every other comedy podcast.
So you don’t like podcasts, you like… podcasts?
'Cause I hate to tell you this about just one of the multiple shows you mentioned (and actually all of them), but you should check its URL: https://teamcoco.com/podcasts/conan-obrien-needs-a-friend
Who said I didn’t like podcasts?
Edit: someone said I have shit taste in podcasts, so I listed some of my favorite PODCASTS. Reading comprehension isn’t a strong suit for most people on here but I don’t even know where you got the idea that I don’t like podcasts
Well, someone showed a meme of someone listening to Joe Rogan out of another person’s asshole and you said that’s what podcasts are, so I think it was a fair assumption that you didn’t like them, especially since you didn’t name any podcasts that were just a bunch of fart noises.
Because that is what podcasts are, I already said that. That doesn’t mean their bad, again, nobody said that. It means they shouldn’t be taken seriously. Whether it’s Joe Rogan or any other comedian, they are shitting in their mics, that is the only thing every off the cuff and improvisational podcast has in common. The only thing special about Joe Rogans podcast is that a lot more people listen to it than other ones, it doesn’t mean he’s not shitting in the mic like EVERYONE else with a podcast. My point was: that meme could have any podcast in place of Joe Rogan and it would be just as accurate.
Hey everybody, we got a pizza cutter over here!
Not All PodcastsEducational podcasts shouldn’t, but any podcast hosted by a comedian usually is. It’s not unique to the bald ape on steroids
Understand that trump is doing this: speaking directly to his base, because he assumes he’s going to lose the election, and he’s trying to lay the groundwork for Civil War 2. There is no other explanation for him to only be speaking to his base for the last 4 or 5+ interviews. He’s not going after undecideds or urban voters. He’s already lost in his head, so he’s going to rile up his base and convince them to try another Jan 6th, but this time, with more prep and planning involved.
Not the only explanation. It’s all he’s ever done. It’s how he lost to Hillary Clinton and still got handed the presidency anyway in 2016.
Right, I don’t disagree that this is all he’s ever done, but he also attempted a coup last time as well. That’s basically what I’m saying.
He’s doing it out in the open right now. Absolutely no political strategist would have ever cancelled the 20/20 interview, or any of the town halls he’s cancelled lately, 2 weeks out from election day. It’s batshit insane. He’s not even campaigning in swing states right now. Musk and Tucker and others are doing that for him.
He’s speaking to his base nonstop, because:
- He’s a narcissist and needs the attention
- He’s laying the groundwork for his next coup, just like he did the first one, except way more in the open and well ahead of time.
I am constantly dismayed when I see Rogan on he top of the charts every week. It’s worse when I hear my generally reasonable and Democrat friends say they listen and that he’s funny
I don’t even give him the time of day anymore. The moment he comes on I just shut it down. I don’t want to ever hear his stupid voice pondering if transgender aliens butt raped him cause his ass hurts so bad again.
Why the fuck would I want to hear a punch drunk future dementia patient interview people? The hawk tuah girl has ten times the charm he does and her only claim to fame is spitting on dicks.
The hawk tuah girl has ten times the charm he does and her only claim to fame is spitting on dicks.
And she hasn’t said anything AFAIK about the gender of the dick carrier.
It’s almost as if he’s appealing… 🤯
Yes, I think that is what they are dismayed about.
Good. Have Harris go after and show the contrast between the two. She’ll mop the floor with Rogan and get the last word with his audience.
Joe Rogan was never going to let Kamala Harris on the Podcast. He knows which side his bread is buttered on, and that would piss off his base. All he cares about at this point is money. He gave up the “I’m a socially liberal populist” bullshit after 2016 basically.
I would be surprised if he let one candidate come one and refused the other. Rogan has worked pretty hard not to appear openly partisan. He also wants the views. He could pull in a shitload of viewers with a Harris interview, just like Fox did with their interview.
Basically, yeah Rogan is clearly a piece of shit but his bread isn’t buttered the same way other right wing influencers are.
Agree to disagree.
Fair enough. Let’s just hope that whatever happens it hurts Trump or boosts Harris.
On that we can agree.
Idk, it’s been a looong time since I listened to his show, but I always got the impression that a good performance there just meant smoking a bowl and telling some crude jokes… I think she’ll come across as presidential, which is exactly what that audience doesn’t want
Headline “Man already continuously carrying so much water for fascist pieces of shit, carries just a single drop more water”
I’m a centrist lean left I swear
Trump cancels his events for… Trump?
This is going to be a love fest. There may be hugging involved.
“I’m not biased though guys, I like weed and drugs so I’m actually not a far right hugging asshole!”
Omg can you imagine if Rogan fiees up a dutchie and Trump, feeling like he can’t be outdone since he’s the “alpha male,” gets way too fucked up and let’s all his bullshit out like “yeah I’m only doing this for the pussy, Joe. I love pussy bigly you know I used to grab it accordion hands”
I may also be fucked up on the dutchie
to be fair: that’s how most maga see themselves.
Uh, rules and laws are only for democrats, poors, and minorities.
It’s going to be another Musk interview with good ol’ Joe gargling Trump’s balls…
Ugh. I hate that I just visualized Rogan sucking on 2 tiny orange tic tacs.
I also hate that I did this to us.
Will do nothing for his chance of winning. Either the guys were already voting for Trump or they can’t legally vote.
Bonus: Trump will probably say something so stupid that it will be used to make fun of the UFC bros. Something so cringe like he could take Tyson in his prime.
How cool would it be if he takes this opportunity to do the right thing and publicly denounce him to his face?
He’s going to give him three hours to yap. That’s a lot of rope to hand Trump.
Three hours is a long time for someone so old. Maybe two one-hour yap sessions split up by a one hour nap session?
