The following post was brought to you by the Fleshlight. If you go to JoeRogan.net, and click on the link for the Fleshlight, and enter in the codename ROGAN, you will get 15% off the number one sex toy for men! And you can shoot loads into it, at a discount, son!

I picked this podcast up a couple months back and I'm hooked. I'm very interesting in pretty much everything he has to talk about.

I've only heard a few episodes but when they have a good guest on, this podcast is really cool. Rogan knows how to have a conversation and has something to say about most topics that are brought up. But when the conversation veers towards drugs I have to switch it off. Not that I'm a prude who hates drugs, but I've never heard anyone who is so annoying about it. Well, other than Kevin Smith.

See, I'm the opposite. As a supporter of psychedelic drugs in general, I love hearing him talk about mind-opening hippie experiences. On the other hand, I zone out whenever he goes on about UFC matches and fighters. I just don't watch those, so to hear him rattle off names and fighting styles bores me to tears.

For me it's the capitalist/libertarian chat and misogyny when they get on the subject. I can understand how he developed those positions, being a millionaire who has spent the majority of his life surrounded by machismo but I just have to tune out for a while until they get past it.

This too. I'm all for Bro-ing out and machismo, but he uses the word "oval office" a lot, and not just "cunty", which he's tried to show a difference between. Every other word when talking about some woman in the news who's slighted him is bitch and oval office and whore.

I just read on the joerogan.net forum that Redban makes more than $80k a year (according to one of the videos he made a few years back).

:negative:
I wonder how much his living expenses are. I remember a recent podcast in which he said Joe paid for all their meals and he felt bad ordering things he would never order if he were paying. But 80k is more than enough to eat comfortably for most people.

This was one of the funniest bits on Joe Rogan when Joey Diaz lost his poo poo over terrible weed. In case you missed it

I remember this from a few weeks back but Rogan really blew it out of proportion. Diaz was joking the whole time, he has a really Kinison-esque manner of yelling when he jokes and Rogan should know this better than most but he got super defensive. You can tell when Diaz starts backpedaling and explaining his Laurel and Hardy joke that he isn't actually yelling at a man on his own podcast about the quality of free weed. And on later podcasts Rogan brings it up several times really drama queening it up like he was accosted on his own turf. Sometimes Joe really is the most insufferable one on his own podcast.

It's pretty funny because for all his crackpot theories about the moon landing and Sept. 11 attacks, he's the first to loudly mock and ostracize Alex Jones with an obnoxious mocking voice.

I'm not one to bitch about plugs and poo poo on podcasts, but for the last couple weeks Joe shilling for Alpha Brain sounds so desperate

I actually prefer his shilling to the ones on other podcasts. Adam Carolla might be my favorite person to listen to of all time, but I actually can't listen to his podcast because his promos are so loving horrible. He'll be talking to some interesting guest and right in the middle of their discussion he'll casually lead in to "Oh, you were in a movie last year? You know what else is good news? Gotomypc.com is having a half-off sale! So go download their app right now! You can access your work pc from home and-". I seriously didn't think I had a problem with this kind of stuff, but it makes me cringe. Rogan gets his out of the way at the beginning and end where you can skip them easily, and the only time he discusses them at all is if someone else brings them up, and if he doesn't truly believe in brain pills and rubber vaginas, he's the best actor I've ever heard, because he talks about them with the exact same intensity and passion he uses when he talks shop with a UFC pro or about the newest season of Fear Factor.

Just watched Rise of the Planet of the Apes, and I remember Rogan talked about it a couple of times. One time in particular he went in depth about the plot and his concerns with it. Does anyone know which podcast this was?

Especially Brian with the way he searches.

But seriously I've used PCs my entire life and have never gotten a virus browsing the internet. The way he talks, you get one every single time you connect to the internet. But there are no viruses for Macs!
I have to admit, I considered myself pretty savvy and I got tricked once. Was on a roommate's laptop and a prompt to update Adobe (or so I thought) popped up. I got her a pretty nasty piece of malware that was really popular last year or so.

:v:: A woman wants to be in power? She wants to make decisions? Come on, that's not right.

Rogans woman-hating is probably my biggest peeve with the show.
Yeah whenever he speaks in a derogatory manner about someone, he does this thing where he breaks down what they're about in a way only a guy totally high would do. For guys he always calls them "dummy" but for women it's almost always "some BITCH".

Example: "It's just gross. Here you have this dummy, this guy with no idea how to x, and he has influence over thousands of people, just polluting civilization with his dummy ideas."

He was just some guy before Joe picked him up, right? Is that how he met all the pornstars he's been dating? He's attractive enough to them for some reason.

I'm torn on Redban. On the one hand, he is annoying as poo poo and acts like a petulant child when he doesn't get his way. He talks too fast when he gets excited and trips all over his own ADD, which is also annoying.

But he's also scolded far too much by Joe lately. Whereas a few months back Joe would laugh and poke fun at him whenever he had some bonehead idea and would make it like something he did on purpose, you know, good-naturedly, as of late he gets seriously angry and calls Brian some mean-spirited and personal things. Really calls him out on being uninformed and childish. It gets to be so bad I'm shifting uncomfortably in my car driving to work. Joe tries way too hard to look cool and open-minded to his guests, I sort of miss when they were a team and not Joe inviting one of the cool kids over and shunning Brian.

Often times he's just being silly or playing Devil's Advocate to hippie talk and thinks it's funny, he's not trying to gently caress things up. Joe acts like he's ruining The Great Podcast of our time by being a stoner and throwing in his Olive Garden joke.

Yup, definitely. After listening to dozens of these podcasts, I almost feel like I'm a half-member of the "stand-up" clique.

I also enjoyed the recent episode with Deadmau5 and Bravo, and I absolutely am hinged to anything Bolelli does.

I don't mean to sound like a dickweed, but I used to go to raves a lot and the general consensus is that deadmau5 is a sellout and a loser. I never subscribed to those ideas, he makes good music, and I figured I would probably try to make as much money as I could too in his position, so who was I to judge him? But listening to the podcast made me lose what respect I might have had. He has the single most ignorant view of mind-altering drugs I've ever heard. Considering his success being due largely in part to people dropping E or smoking weed and going to raves to listen to him, it blew me away that he has this mindset that his music is "above that" and that you "don't need those things to enjoy his music like some other music out there" because it's so technical or advanced or whatever the gently caress he thinks. Not to get all :joerogan: but the afformentioned drugs make virtually any and all music better, hands down. They stimulate the mind in such a way that it's like observing the music with a different sense or something. Or maybe you're just hosed up. Point is, he's the last artist who can say he's above that poo poo, and he just came across as totally condescending.

It's astonishing to say condescendingly that she's below Rogan's level when she's really quite gorgeous. I'm proud of Joe for locking that down.

I think Dice is a guy who had a character that was so successful, he became him.

It's also possible he stayed in character assuming that's what Joe wanted for his podcast. Which is probably right.
