    I listened to him, Joey Diaz, and Bill Burr for years. I stopped listening to Joe around 2015/2016 when he went from having interesting, maybe occasionally off-kilter folks, on for fun discussions where he listened, to asserting half baked opinions as facts and platforming people like Alex jones regularly. That second one is what really got me. Prior to 2015 or so I hadn’t really clocked how close they were and how often he had him on.

      To really blow your mind, Jones directly attacked Rogan multiple times because he wouldn’t bring him on his show again before he finally did and they were all buddy buddy.

      Roe Jogan is a fucking moron, and I’m using that as a compliment.
