Just like late night talk shows, I think a lot of these are scripted or guided to only discuss what is agreed upon.If you're going to do it though at least challenge him, folks don't seem to do that.

Fani needs to step down in the YSL Rico more importantly. She clearly cannot be trusted to do her job in an ethical way.

Absolutely. How many people eating up far right talking points are actually “non-political”?Secondly I think people are over estimating the political benefit to going on Rogan.
From what I remember from 2016 and beyond is that the people that eat that **** up weren’t into politics whatsoever priorAbsolutely. How many people eating up far right talking points are actually “non-political”?
I don’t doubt Rohan is at best loosely scripted, but I remember being pretty surprised to learn that those classic Andy Kaufman appearances on Letterman were all pre-planned.

You are a political person though. I didn’t say anything about the reasons that you listened. You said his listeners were filled with non-political people, which is what I responded to.I think some people have a hard time believing that people listen to Rogan for non political reasons. I know plenty of them. I'm one of them..
I listen when he has an interesting guest. I don't care about what ever goofy politics statements he makes in the same way I don't care about him promoting quack carnivores diets.
Those people exist. The idea that they are unreachable or un persuadable just seems incredibly defeatist to me.
Interesting article.

I guess our disagreement is more about what non-political means in this context. If you’re a self described free thinker, but your politics tend to align with all of the right wing nut jobs — I don’t consider that person non-political.
Yea, I think that there are some for sure. But by and large, especially with what we’re seeing on the shift in conservatism amongst males pretty much globally, I don’t think that describing swaths of Rogan listeners as non-political in this hyperpolarized world we live in is really accurate. Sure, they might not describe themselves as members of the Republican Party but I’d imagine parsing through political leanings and voting habits we’d get to the same point for the majority. Maybe I’m just way wrong.Sorry to be clear, by "non-political" I mean a person that doesn't have strongly ideologically coherent political attachments.
Everyone has political opinions or thoughts.
When I think of a highly "political person" I think of someone highly ideological and highly informed on politics.
I'm a political person but I don't listen to Joe Rogan for it's political content. I'm not right wing, I'm pretty far to the left compared to the median American, and unless you think I'm some unique snow flake I think it's reasonable to guess there are people all across the spectrum who listen to Rogan and aren't right wing ideologies.
All the other people I've heard talk about there experience say it's turn on the mics and go.

This is an important pointEven when Rogan had people on who'd strongly disagree with some of his statements, he'd made sure to keep it light and stay away from politics with them.
Maybe if a big name was asked to do his show and said no cause you're a f`in racist Joe, that would send a message (to Rogan anyways) better than doing 3 hours of talking about DMT, ufos, and elk meat, if he even still talks about that stuff.
To be clear, I think you’re right about RoGan’s ad hoc approach.
Serious question: why do you listen? Years ago the expected group of “bros” in my circle recommended him to me and I couldn’t get through 10 minutes. He’s just so aggressively dumb.
I got ths from myself. Ive always had this opinion.of Rogan. This opinion extends to basically every other case of boycotting or problematic artists and content in general. I feel this way about dave Chappelle, or insert any other problematic person or idea.osh kosh bosh got this Rogan thing from Mathew Yglesias that I believe he still has not properly scrutinized this Rogan argument.

Specifically, regarding Rogan, I think Osh's argument does a ton of handwaving, guessing, and overestimating to make it seem like the issue is liberals/democrats poorly purity testing to their detriment, and are defeatist
