I've been wondering the same thing for some time now. There was a time I thought he was just a dude that maybe didn't know a little about a lot and was just trying his honest best to figure stuff out but it's getting pretty hard for me to have that same view over the years. There's just too many examples where he'll say things that have been clearly and repeatedly demonstrated to him to be false on air during his own show and he'll just keep repeating the same bull crap over and over. His guest lineup is kinda telling too lol.
I had the same feeling! I think he actually was back when he was kinda apolitical, back when he was openly a dem voter but largely refrained from really talking about politics
Now… Yea he is getting paid good!
I've barely watched him over the years but when I first listened to him I fell into the trap that he was just chill guy being cool with his guests. It definitely soured pretty quickly so I know what you mean.
I'll jump in the cage with Rogan. Problem is, he's never really fought in his entire career. He's a sham and weak. Why won't he get in the cage?
He's talked about how awesome he is, don't forget about that. Be careful, he knows how talk about fighting
Agreed, but until youve actually done it, you don't really have experience. You can watch and train all you want in something like that, but nothing beats experience in hand to hand combat. Punching pads isn't the same as wrestling a gun or knife from someone who's willing to die to kill you, or thinks their life is on the line because you exist.
It's a different world, with different motivation and different experience. There's no tapping out when someone wants you dead. Jake Paul has more muscle than me, but I would never bet on him over me, ever, because of my force of will, and experience. It's really hard to explain the difference to someone who's never been in that position. Sometimes it's skill, sometimes it's luck, sometimes it's sheer force of will.
So, what you're saying is, don't fuck with P00ptart.
Got it.
Oh there are plenty of people in the world who could beat my ass lol.
