Of course, not Tomi Lahren though…

    Weirdest thing about listening to jre is that you realize that Joe is deeply unfunny. He has a few funny friends though.

      Even his old stand up was just not very good. He seems to be likable on a personal level though so he got along well with the actually funny comedians. I think the Golden age of his career started when he went on Tom Green’s internet TV show and got the idea to do the Joe Rogan experience.

        Tom Green is often unrecognized as one of the earliest pioneers of video podcasting or whatever you want to call it. His home studio and webcast show were quite ahead of their time, and also had some really great guests and content. I loved the one with Norm Macdonald

      Most comedians will bend over backwards to compliment Joe and gas him up about how influential a comedian he is, just so they can use his show as a promotional tool.

        He is influential.
        What other platform can showcase a comedians unscripted wit for 2 hours?
        Rogans just not a good comedian. He’s probably better than me, but I’m a pretty low bar.
