I had to find a link to it on the Rogan forums since they blocked it, but the Daryl Wright/porn star one wasn't nearly as bad as I expected.

Does anyone have a link to the Bone Zone #5? By all accounts that one was a complete train wreck and they immediately banned the guy that re-posted it on Rogan's board.

edit: Here's the Daryl Wright one if anyone is interested: http://tinyurl.com/IceHouseChronicles

What happened on the bone zone #5 or whatever?

Brendon Walsh drunkenly falling over and calling people "niggers" is what I've seen online. They pulled it immediately and banned anyone that posted links. If you have one, please PM me.

Good lord are the people on Rogan's board a bunch of cunts. It's like at least a 10:1 ratio of shitposting to actual posting, but this one guy basically nailed it on the head in regards to the AlphaBrain thing. They hired some dude as "Scientific Advisor" who has a BS from Brown (sorry for the wall of text but you need an account to view):

JamesMMA posted:

As far as the new "advisor" to the company, while I don't have any particular want or need to be uncouth as I don't know him, but the fact that someone with only a bachelor's degree in a field as esoteric and complex as neuroscience is being called a scientific advisor says quite a few things, among them being that Mr. Marcus has questionable judgement when it comes to what actually is expert scientific advisement. Again, not anything against the gentlemen in question, but as a more general claim in this context. If you want a real scientific advisor you find someone with some real and significant credentials and who is respected within the neuroscientific community. Someone with only a bachelors degree simply does not have the grasp of the nuances and even the total base knowledge to deal with the complexities of the neurological and physiological (and even psychological) components at play, not because he isn't intelligent, because he probably is, but even for a very intelligent person it simply isn't enough time to get a good understanding of everything involved (unless you're something of a savant).

This just seems like another marketing ploy (along with the potential for getting new criticisms with the probable goal of filling the gaps in his argument) with the aim of being able to say something to the effect, "We have a scientific advisor in our company and he has a degree in neuroscience." While technically true, and will sell to the scientifically uneducated (which I would guess is the goal) it doesn't tell the whole story. There is a drastic difference between a bachelors and a doctorate. That is why someone with a bachelors degree in psychology can't open a practice and accept patients. Yes, they have some credentials but they simply do not have the necessary knowledge.

To me this move does not give any clout whatsoever to the claims of Onnit and its founder and upon reflection and scrutiny should worry those who are aware.

tl;dr, make it yourself and eat at Olive Garden.

Duncan's Graham Hancock episode was great. That guy sure can talk. I cracked up a couple times at Duncan just not being able to get a word in.

I enjoyed the Cenk episode.

Where have all the fringe crackpot guests gone? The last one I really remember was the guy who though HIV and AIDs were not connected. These guests tend to be my favorite, but seems like there is a lot less of them lately.

Joe always talks about being friends with Alex Jones, but as far as I know he has never appeared on the podcast.

I agree he should do the podcast, but Joey Diaz and Rogan on Alex Jones' show is one of the classics:

Doug Stanhope is a relatively reasonable, if quite bleak, human being. Alex Jones is an insane man.

Wow, this is great. I always knew Jones was a little crazy but he is out of goddamn his mind.

Just finished listening to Doug Stanhope on Bert Kreischer's podcast and it's pretty loving great. I highly recommend it.

Rogan seemed overly argumentative with that Damer guy. I understand playing devil's advocate but goddamn did it get tiresome once he mentioned the singularity.

I just heard of some podcast called "The Dollop" and the one about John Lilly is amazing.

It's like this thread's opinion personified.

Don't know how I missed this. The first half is worth watching.

That was hilarious. Way better than their stand up.
