Damn this one took a while.

Scheduling problems... Audio issues... Editing problems... Output problems...

Sorry about the slightly below par sound, normal service will be resumed next episode.

And thanks for your patience!

Interested in any comments/thoughts!

Cheers! Thanks guys :)

I came here to say the same thing. I'm grateful for all the work you put into getting these things out! Y'all are amaze-balls. Many thanks.

Love it! Never figured out the release schedule anyway. Still working my way through the catalogue. These are evergreen, so don't worry too much about on-the-day consistency, not why I'm support the Patreon. Cheers!

Looking forward to it. Anticipating that I will feel grateful for not taking Rohan seriously when I was in my early twenties.

Louise

Over three hours? It is like Christmas has come early! Will look forward to listening to this episode.

Your sins must have been vast and varied because the penance is a doozy! Cheers guys.

Thanks guys - that was very well balanced I found.

The self contradiction even in one line! "Apple has more money than any corporation on earth, they're not the richest but..." or "I haven't been sick a day in the last 7 years, I had covid but".

Thanks for a great episode, I was convinced that I could never enjoy a piece of content featuring the asshat Joe Rogan, and you’ve proven me wrong. I’m sorry that Matt had to suffer through two episodes of this nonsense, but thanks for taking on that suffering for those of us who just can’t.

Gents, this is where I feel this show moves from enjoyable entertainment to valuable, useful and important information. As a former JRE fan I'm really grateful that you guys have put this together. At least now I can point my friends who still listen to Joe to something concrete that demonstrates the dangerous bullshit he's putting out now. The fact that Matt, of all people, cut Joe to the fucking bone tells me so much about how much of a shit he has become. At one point Joe, for the most part, was a reliable source of light-hearted entertainment. He's now deliberately making the world a worse place for his own enrichment and to enlarge his own ego. And he looks like a broken thumb on steroids. Well done.

Thank you for making this podcast. I have never listened to Rogan. I do listen to the podcast "Jocko Unraveling" which has a quite different tone. As I listened to the subject Rogan podcast, I found comments pertaining to the relevance of U.S. WW2 armaments capacity to future war especially dissonant given 2021 weapon systems technology. It really hurt my head to hear what Jocko said. I doubt he would say the same in discussion with his "Unraveling" co-host. Guess this is an example of the value of your podcast.

Are we sure Joe is as big as everyone, himself included seems to think he is? As mentioned in the episode, he got behind Tulsi pretty hard in 2016 , (Yang too) and it didn’t really help either candidate. I vaguely remember Bari Weiss reporting from a yang gang meeetup and she said that the majority of people there had heard about Yang via JRE. yang was polling at less than 1% at the time I believe.

He's really , really bad now. Well done - definitive decoding and would have been hard to do if not for Covid and sharp focus that Covid Times have brought to real life damage these a-holes are capable of which was more nebulous if just culture war bollocks. With Bob Wright decode ( i admit to also being a fan..) but re-listening to your JBP / Brett WineSteen episode and JBP's teleological narrative around the universe and evolution going in the direction of Christ aint too far away from the Dharma of Bob's albeit hard-to-pin-down teleology on an intelligence / arc/ purpose for evolution of life and universes having a direction. Be interesting to see what you make of that when Bob thinks it- but hey , just asking questions... Great show lads....

Like everybody above, I want to "thank you for your service" for listening to this shite so I don't have to. And Matt's right, the Patreon dollars are not nearly enough to compensate for that pain. On Joe himself, never listened to his stuff, but obviously aware through the general online backchat. On the whole I didn't find anything too surprising. Apart from his apparent penchant for inserting the antisemitic Soros conspiracy into all kinds of random conversations. That was an unpleasant surprise. I'm guessing him moving to Texas to spend more time with his network of deplorables, like Alex Jones and co, is not going to improve his ideological slide to the right.

I just checked in with Joe and Tim Dillon...didn't take them more then 2 minutes before they were talking about the draconian Australians and their mandates. He's really gettin some gooch tickling from somewhere.
