Did Rogan do standup before the UFC?
Yes.
I don't like his humor, for the most part.
Did Rogan do standup before the UFC?
He's average, most people are average, that's why he is big.
Hard worker that got to wealth solely due to the UFC
a while ago I could have given you many reasons. I like the more humble and mellow Rogan. He was a smart ass know it all and talked out of his ass on a lot when he was younger. Goldy was there to make him look good. Someone had to be the fall guy. He could call it on BJJ tech I will give him that.Why shit on joe, he’s doing a fun entertaining job on podcast and has the greatest side gig ever , who wouldn’t do his job given the chance
Rogan would be nothing without the UFC.
You nailed it brotherThis.
Rogan exploded in popularity much like a lot of famous people on the internet: by putting out shockbait content that caters to tons of idiots.
He's just a dollar store Art Bell. It's been done before and a lot better. But he does have a quality of sincerity in his voice that makes you want to agree with what he is saying. He's smarter than his average listener but not much more.The other way around. I honestly can’t go through a full episode of the Joe Rogan experience without getting insulted intellectually for many reasons. The 2 obvious ones are, Joe talks like he learned English on Sherdog. The second is he interviews people like Bob Lazar and then uses their accounts to discuss the legitimacy of aliens with the likes of GSP as a source while he evades the questions if he believes Lazar!
He basically goes with the popular narratives but keeps other options open just in case he is proven wrong.
Case&point, almost every Sherbro uses the same tactics in their predictions for example, fighter A should win via KO, but won’t be surprised if fighter B wins via such and such!
So my question is, what makes Joe Rogan so successful when he literally sound like the average Sherbro?
he wasn't mega rich, but he made decent money.Joe Rogan was a millionaire before the UFC gig. He was a co-star on a long running sitcom for years. He also did Fear Factor, which was also a popular show. Not to mention his comedy gigs, which is how he got his foot in the door in Hollywood in the first place. Most people might be average, but you sir are well below average.
Bob Lazar is a narcissist without empathy just like a serial killer who when caught have no empathy and completely deny all accusations while smiling right in your face. Don’t be that gullible. Lazar was a nobody who wanted fame and attention so he made up a story. I also saw a being from another dimension but I won’t say anything until I take a video of him if I ever got to see him again. Though, the being is completely different than anything u have heard offLazar's story is interesting. He did work for the government at Area 51 so there could be merit to his stories. Either way you are trying to discuss something that can't be proven either way. If there are aliens and general public doesn't know about it, there's no way to really prove that. Also there's no real way to disprove there aren't aliens, to do so would just show the lack of intelligence by trying to come up with a concrete answer for something like that when the universe is so vast and we know very little of it and haven't really been able to explore any of it.
Other topics he brings in experts that both agree or disagree with the narrative and he tries to be balanced between the 2. Just trying to throw questions to each that are common questions that may contradict their beliefs/narrative. He tries to use as much facts as possible that's why they are always fact checking everything because he understands facts matter.
The problem I see most with most people and their issues with Joe Rogan is that people don't agree with his views, even though they can't disprove them or he actually proves it to be factual. So that's the reason many don't like him from what I've seen. He doesn't seem to follow the narrative just for the sake of following the narrative like most people like to do. If something doesn't make sense he calls it out while others ignore it.
Also his success is a mixture of Podcasting, Fear Factor and UFC, but it's really his podcasts that got him his following and the most success.
Very trueHe's just a dollar store Art Bell. It's been done before and a lot better. But he does have a quality of sincerity in his voice that makes you want to agree with what he is saying. He's smarter than his average listener but not much more.
Joe Rogan is destroying our society as humans??That’s not the problem, the problem is in the comments. People believe everything they watch and it’s what’s destroying our society as humans. There are people out there that are extremely gullible even with WWW at their disposal to do their own research but they take the words of an entertainer and live by it! It’s very dangerous for our society really
So you absolutely dont give a fuck about his podcast but have listened for yrs and still pay attention to everything he does?I shit on Rogan's commentary because it's been awful for years and has gotten progressively worse since he cut back his UFC duties.
Don't give a fuck about his podcast one way or the other, and I think that the people who are hysterically opposed to it are mentally ill. I really liked it 5-6 years ago, but it got stale for me.

You're such a sensitive pussy.
Just out of curiosity, what opinions Rogan do you strongly disagree with?I still watch the podcast, but like others have said, lately Rogan just spouts his opinion off as fact. That because he's had all these smart people on his show, that he is now this educated person that can take all these firm stances on complicated subjects.
Nah, Rogan was a HUGE celeb from Fear Factor. Literally, everyone knew him name. UFC benefited from having such a mega-star join the team.
