Joe Rogan Mistakenly Blasts Biden’s Mental Fitness Over Something Trump Actually Said
Joe Rogan questioned President Biden's mental fitness but in trying to prove the point he incorrectly attributed to Biden something Donald Trump said.
To that, Rogan responded, “Oh, so [Trump] fucked up.” Nickal commented, “That’s the thing about media these days. You gotta look into it.”
Hey fucko, you're a part of the media
The ol' Fox news switcheroo.
They brag about being the most watched news on television and also tell their viewers to not trust mainstream media.
"most watched news"
"don't trust media"
"we are for entertainment only not news and no reasonable person would think so"
Until they are in a courtroom then they're entertainment
Yeah, and it works wonderfully. Why wouldn't they roll with it?
We libs think we score some kinda "gotcha!" by pointing to the hypocrisy. It's not working for us.
They got a formula that works. We do not. Isn't it about time to abandon the high road and engage in lying, cheating and stealing? Hell, they already think we're doing it.
Not only that, with being one of the most popular podcasts ever you could even call it mainstream.
Yeah. His show is the most advertised podcast of all time. You're not getting 200 million for an indie show
Apparently, the misleading part of the media they are complaining about.
Hey fucko, you’re part of the media
Bo Nickal said the second quote referring to the media. Not Rogan.
What's fun is the moment he realized it was Trump. He went from Biden should be removed because mentally unfit, to well Trump just misspoke
I'm going to just trust you that he said it because I can't listen to that dumb fuck ramble all day.
To that, Rogan responded, “Oh, so [Trump] fucked up.” Nickal commented, “That’s the thing about media these days. You gotta look into it.”
Ah, a perfect example of people not checking their sources themselves /s
Is he still claiming to be left-wing?
He claims he voted libertarian in the last election but I feel pretty confident that won't happen next year.
Joe Rogan calling people out over mental fitness is a prime example of a pot calling a kettle black.
A kettlebell black. (I kid, I kid.)
Prime example of a pot... cough cough cough hack hack cough haaaack cough cough cough... pot calling... haack haaack.. black. Huuaaah. It's just allergies.
Not directly related beyond steaming and podcasting apparently rotting people's brains, but I just watched a stream where a guy tried to cough up a lung and then said "it's not allergies, chat, it's just hay fever"
Like, damn bro. You're about to get clowned on by thirteen year olds with more medical knowledge than you.
There's no mistake. It's his intent to blast Biden, not to speak the truth. He 100% achieved his goal.
If you read the article, it says he was corrected and acknowledged the mistake.
You are mistaken in thinking that changes anything.
Fascists only need to blast their message. Any incorrectness or recanting is 100% irrelevant and inconsequential.
When the nazis roll over the government and burn it all down, I swear, there'll be this 10% subset of people befuddled that this could be happening after all of the recanting. It doesn't matter. Don't let them convince you it matters.
Maybe Rogan needs a new, younger, fresher host on that show.
Rogan should step down as we see his mental facilities are in decline.
It's depressing to watch a thumb get old.
Maybe a rival podcast should call for rallies, then storm the JRE studios and overthrow him. I be the Behind the Bastards gang could sort this out.
oh, cruel ironic fate - they're called faculties!
;)
It's not just his faculties, but the entire facilities that keep him running!
I seen a bit of this interview yesterday. The article doesn't cover it all. As soon as these 2 knuckleheads started spewing airports and it was Biden that said this I was confused as this was something Trump said a few years back. Didn't they know? They ride the media for skewing things and they weren't even aware of how Trump was called out in the same media for this some time back.
Below this fellow breaks down the double standard in more detail than the article does. It covers how Rogan and his Guest said no one should listen to Biden and how he is unfit for office due to this airport thing. Then when the producer points out to Rogan that Biden is referring to what Trump previously said, it wasn't a big deal all of a sudden to Rogan and the guest.
Trump gets a "whoopsie doodle" pass and Trump is still the better choice in his mind I'm sure. Not saying Biden is a gem of a rose but with how hard the right are trying to pin anything on Biden and failing, Trump is still a rotten to the core choice for endless reasons.

In short: Joe Rogan is a crypto-fascist.
Its always unfalsifiable. They're right no matter their position, $100 million > objective reality any day /s
Thats why estoppel in the legal system and the legal system in general are Trump's kryptonite, even if it looks like hes constantly usurping it. Make him pin down himself and he just can't do it so he loses cuz he can't stop himself from hedging or being sure what he says is going to be universally adored by those he "represents"
Also, like those Targets that let you steal until its a felony and both of you hit the big time 🎬
Never seen a clearer example of someone not being objective.
Rogan is a truly horrible human being. I absolutely cannot stand that asshole. He is the walking and talking Dunning-Krueger Effect. He is a washed up comedian who moved on to making people eat disgusting stuff on a shitty reality show to thinking he is some sort of brilliant host.
He’s like the unfortunate result of Jerry Springer, Rush Limbaugh and Morton Downey Jr spreading idiocy and bullshit everywhere, setting the stage
Even before that, Rogan’s show is modeled off Coast to Coast AM, a show well known for pseudoscience and conspiracy theories.
I feel like somone correct me if I'm wrong, that early on he was decent. He listened and had good long interviews.
But, somewhere along the way he started to like the smell of his own farts and things when down the crazy hole.
I share that opinion. The shat began a bit before the spotify deal, but after it was downhill via log ride off shit mountain.
You probably grew out of it and realized he was shit all along.
I listened to him for a while, then found him complaining more and more about the left. That was mostly fine since he complained about conservatives as well and he supported Bernie Sanders, but I got fed up with him because he wouldn't have liberals on the show to discuss the topics he clearly knew nothing about yet loved to bring up constantly.
He's a guy who touts himself on being open, curious, and willing to learn, but what I found was the exact opposite. Any time there was a guest on his show who disagreed with something and the conversation turned into more of a debate, he'd say that having that person on was a mistake. Ultimately I stopped listening when he proved himself to be a blowhard hypocrite.
I miss the days when he had interesting long form interviews with unknown people instead of the echoput of Reich wing nonsense they are spewing.
Give it some more time and Rogan will most likely have his own sandy hook denial-esque moment and get sued into oblivion.
I miss the days when he was doing stand up and straight up telling people "I'm an idiot. Please don't take me seriously." It definitely is better than now, where he is still an idiot but people do take him seriously.
Nah fuck that. That was always his trick, he doesn't actually think he's an idiot, it's just his get out of jail card.
Even worse, nowadays he thinks he’s a genius because he’s super rich.
That idiot is the reason I dropped Spotify. I don't want my money funding such a dipshit.
I also hate how he's appropriated the acronym "JRE" from programming to a right wing conspiracy show. Say what you want about Java but it doesn't deserve this.
The Java Runtime Experience podcast
Huh, 'JRE' is a reaction YouTuber to me.
I can't believe I used to listen to him lol he got me with the scientist interviews... Like not the Egyptian aliens types, but people like Neil Degrass Tyson.
Then I listened enough to realize he's a jackass right winger pretending that liking weed puts him on the left somehow, kinda like Bill Maher. Yeah yeah Bill you're tolerant of "the gays" and you like weed, but he's center right if anything, again pretending he's on the left for his ratings.
hmm its almost like joe rogan is an aboslute idiot and the real life embodiment of a thumb-thumb from spykids
I keep getting videos of Rogan pushed on YouTube, while I constantly mark them as "not interested" of report them as "fake news". He's like a horrible decease you never can get rid of.
YouTube needs content filters
Your mistake is interacting with them at all.
The algorithms know that people who dislike something enough to click a button will be primed to potentially do something like hate-watch or open the video to leave a comment, etc so by interacting you are telling it you were emotionally affected.
The best way to avoid getting suggested videos like this is to completely ignore them. Do not open it, do not click any buttons on it or hover over it long enough for the preview to start.
Eventually you'll only see suggestions like that if you are a regular watcher of videos on the opposite end of the spectrum.
I've been telling YouTube not to recommend these types of videos and it seems to work well with minimal effort on my part. When I look at the homepage, it's all cooking and math videos, and it's been that way for years now.
Alternatively, I tell YouTube to not recommend a channel and it... doesn't recommend that channel.
Doesn't work with shorts, then you just get pushed junk
Ironically, you marking them as not interested and reporting them probably counts as engagement to show those videos more often.
It shouldn't, I don't see them anymore by choosing the don't recommend this channel to me anymore. And I do bij so watch a ton of bjj videos, so anytime some channel pops up that uses his clips it's recommended to me. Still his own channel and that main clipping channel are things I haven't seen in a long time.
Here's a direct excerpt from the article OP linked:
Shortly after the exchange during the show, “The Joe Rogan Experience” producer Jamie Vernon cut in to correct Rogan. Vernon played a clip that Rogan had cited, which was in fact a video of Biden mocking “stable genius” Trump for the comments about airports in the Revolutionary War. Then Vernon ran a video clip of Trump’s “Salute to America” remarks from July 4, 2019, in which the former president praised Americans’ military efforts in the war against Great Britain.
In the speech, Trump said in part, “Our army manned the air, it rammed the ramparts, it took over the airports, it did everything it had to do, and at Fort McHenry, under the rockets’ red glare, it had nothing but victory.” (Meanwhile, Fort McHenry was the site of a key American victory over the British navy in the War of 1812, not the Revolutionary War.)
To that, Rogan responded, “Oh, so [Trump] fucked up.” Nickal commented, “That’s the thing about media these days. You gotta look into it.”
I dont watch the podcast, but please: let's exhibit some media literacy while we criticize others for their supposed lack of media literacy.
Not happening here, once people get a hate boner for someone or something... they're full on blind to the nuance.
Yeah it's the "media". You have the #1 podcast in the world spreading misinformation. Unfunny fuck nugget prick Rogan.
It's only misinformation if it's consumed as a soundbite devoid of context. And since you're commenting on my comment highlighting the context, I am legitimately confused as to your issue. If near real-time fact-checking on the very same podcast episode isn't enough for you: then you may just have an issue with conversational podcasts in general. Stick to printed news.
This perfectly showcases the multi tier belief system from Joe and his goons…
Always has been
This guy right here is the reason some 1,500 jobs were lost from Spotify.
Talk about overpaid piece of shit.
Wonder if the guy who greenlit this shit idea also saw the axe
I hope that guy received the none metaphorical kind
I don’t see reports on a direct connection - remember where you heard that?
Not the original commenter here but this one doesn't make a direct connection, but certainly says Spotify blew money poorly that they are trying to make up for, although it mainly mentions cuts in podcasts. This one make s bit more of a correlation saying "The cancellations coincide with jobs cuts at Spotify Monday that eliminated 17% of the streaming company’s staff, or around 1,500 people. Spotify has undertaken several rounds of job cuts since October 2022. " https://fortune.com/2023/12/04/spotify-podcasts-cancelled-heavyweight-stolen/ However you're not going to find much more than that because it would require a degree of openness and honest that a shitty company isn't going to give. So it's hard to say a direct connection doesn't exist when all the data on that is kept secret by the people who profit from it.
It is crazy how large of an audience he has. When he clearly worships Trump, his reaction to finding out it was Trump's words said enough. Idol worship is an ugly thing.
Like many other public figures, his rhetoric matches the need for confirmation bias among his listeners. It's a business based on telling your contingency what they want to hear. Cletus and Merle are your football fans for team MAGA. They'll be on your side whether you win or lose.
I don’t think he worships Trump. Unless of course you can provide evidence that he’s even in favor of Trump.
You won’t though.
Dude is a full moron.
He seemed significantly more intelligent when he was doing more DMT.
Can you explain this idiom to me?
Full moron is more than partial moron.
A partial moron might believe whatever he's told but then have a "wait a minute, something's not right here" moment. A full moron doesn't have that moment and spreads the problem to others.
Another example would be a "leopards are my face" moment. A partial moron would be surprised that approaching a leopard caused them bodily harm but learn not to do it again. A full moron would sue the leopard but do it again with their child.
Another example: a partial moron gets directions, sees the distance, thinks a half tank of gas will get them there and back despite prior trips showing the opposite. But they have a Jerry can in the trunk. A full moron wouldn't have the Jerry can and buys a bigger vehicle with a larger engine because it comes with a bigger gas tank and then blames the liberals when they still run out of gas.
Partial = recoverable, full = hopeless
JustZ is only saying Joe Rogan is a moron. The term "full moron" isn't a commonly used phrase on its own, but the word "full" followed by an adjective or noun can be used to enhance the descriptive word, such the quote "never go full retard" from the comedy movie "Tropic Thunder". The context is that an actor played a person with a mental disability in a movie, but they tried too hard, and the performance was uncomfortable for some people.
I feel compelled to note that I don't condone using hateful or disparaging language when describing the differently abled.
The problem is, none of his listeners will care, he'll go back to blasting Biden tomorrow and supporting Trump. And his listeners eat it up...
Look about how serious he was talking about Biden with his anecdotes and shit and how dismissive he was of Trump. He's a prick.
Toxic meathead does not belong anywhere near a microphone. Yet here we are.
I all for the Rogan-bashing, but had he not since admitted he's seen enough evidence to realize that the moon landing was real?
However, knowing full well that he, although he considers himself a "sceptic" (in the modern sense of the word, where no actual scepticism is involved), was taken in by a conspiracy theory made up of whole cloth, it doesn't make him the least bit less likely to fooled by other conspiracy theories – probably because they, mistakenly, makes him feel smart.
I watched a couple of episodes years ago. One with Wim Hof, and one with a guy talking about Terrence Mckenna. They were interesting enough, but I never got hooked. It sounds like the show has gone downhill from there.
He really fell into the alt-right "manosphere" crowd after Covid restrictions started rolling out I think. Those really put a damper on his two business and personal interests outside of his podcast: stand up comedy, and MMA. It was so much he moved his studio from LA to somewhere in Texas where they obviously didn't give a shit about Covid.
Well what do you know? Those are also the only episodes I ever went through. Maybe also one about Bitcoin... was Andreas Antonopoulos ever a guest? But don't answer that, it's not important, what's important is that this toxic meathead detoured into q-anon territory, then went off like an excrement bomb on the internet, not unlike infowars a few years earlier, and I have no interest in either, may they rot far away from my mind.
To be fair Rogan is a raging dipshit that was not quite as funny as Andy Dick. How he achieved an actual following is mind boggling.
There are a lot of raging dipshits to make an audience out of.
Yeah fair point
Add Jon lovitz to the mix, and News Radio really spawned some characters. Yikes.
This strikes me as a particularly ahistoric take. I'd like to make two points in that regard.
News Radio was the biggest gig yet for both Joe Rogan and Andy Dick, who played main characters on the show from the start. Jon Lovitz was already well known from his time on Saturday Night Live -- arguably a higher-profile position than the one he took on News Radio.
Jon Lovitz wasn't spawned by News Radio, is my first point. To the contrary: Lovitz was brought onto the show as an established big-name talent after (his friend and fellow SNL alum) Phil Hartman died.
And how did Phil Hartman die? Phil Hartman was shot and killed by his wife, Brynn Omdahl, who struggled with substance abuse. According to Lovitz, Andy Dick was said to have shared cocaine with her at a Christmas party at Hartman's house.
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/lovitz-speaks-out-on-dustup-with-andy-dick/
"[Andy] was just complaining and really giving me a hard time for no reason. Phil told me that they had a Christmas party and Andy was doing cocaine and he gave it to Phil's wife Brynn, who had been sober for 10 years. So Andy said to me, 'Well, you shouldn't be here,' and I said, 'Well, I wouldn't be here if you hadn't given Brynn coke in the first place.'"
After this on-set exchange, Lovitz and Dick were said to have made up and were able to work professionally together on News Radio. Later, however, when Lovitz was out at a restaurant, Dick came over to his table and invoked his ostensible involvement with Hartman's murder:
"He's standing there with liqueur dripping down his chin and he says, 'I put the Phil Hartman hex on you, you're the next one to die,'" said Lovitz. "And he's smiling, and my blood just went to my head. I wanted to smash him, but if I hit him he would have gone flying into the table behind him. He was really drunk."
My second point is that, while Jon Lovitz maybe be a "character," he's an entirely different class of character than Andy Dick. (Or Joe Rogan, for that matter, just to pretend this whole long reply still has something to do with the actual OP topic.)
I never heard of Lovitz being a dick…hell, never heard anything about him at all after that Critic show he did.
Joe Rogans mental decline in the last few years is astonishing.
"Joe Rogans truth is recently revealed."
FTFY
On the Dec. 21 episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience,” which has been the No. 1 podcast on Spotify for the past three years
It should be noted that Rogan has an exclusive deal with Spotify so Spotify is the only place you can listen to Rogan, which is probably largely responsible for his #1 spot on the platform.
I believe that deal ends later this week. I haven't seen anything to indicate it will be renewed.
Spotify cancelled one of the top Gimlet podcasts, Heavyweight, this week, they are really bowing out of the podcast industry I believe. I hope Rogan gets cancelled and fucks off into hell.
One of the most punchable throats in media makes nonsensical noises. Film at eleven.
Dude doesn't even have a neck. He literally has one of the least punchable throats.
Edit - he's like a turtle with his head retracted. Just a forehead sticking out of a wide torso
All glans, no shaft.
What a dolt.
Joe Rogan has never suffered from Imposter Syndrome.
Because that is EXACTLY how he should feel about himself at all times.
Does he still have Young Jamie fact-checking and pulling stuff up? Its hilarious that Jamie let him prep his own noose and reinforce/double-down and then let him pull the switch
Edit: i do want to credit Rogan for keeping Young Jamie around, its the only way I ever listen to his podcast. There needs to be an adult (Young Jamie) in the room to facillitate important moments like this and pushback on Joe's more freewheeling side where facts and interpretations are involved ans politically-influential
I do think Rogan retains a nominal openess that I appreciate altho its becoming less and less certain about how truly open he is in terms of hosting people he disagrees with like Bill Maher seems to do in my experience watching.
On the evolutionary scale Joe Rogan is second on the left.
Oh goodie, a mistake from the horse paste guy.
I hate the word blasts in this context. IDK why it bothers me so much
Maybe you would prefer "slams"? Just kidding I hate blasts and slams both in headlines.
Possibly because it's an overused, hyperbolic and mostly meaningless word, that really only serves to amplify the rage-bait component of a click-bait headline.
That's why it bothers me, anyway.
To me such language signals that the author's purpose is not to enlighten or dispell ignorance, but to get the upper hand, be the one who is "right" and the opponent is made "wrong." It's not only a lazy way of thinking, but it prevents anyone from actually learning anything. Instead we just get to be self-righteous for being "smart."
Any time I see an article that attempts to bash, slam, destroy, demolish, etc, etc. I cannot take it seriously because the author has convinced me from the start they are not interested in inspiring honest dialogue about a social issue. They just want to draw you into their own limited, biased way of thinking.
It’s called “editorialization” and it’s when you use colorful language to add meaning that doesn’t exist in the subject material.
In this case, I’d say it bothers you because there’s no actual definition of “blasts” that’s different from “criticizes” or “comments on”, and it indicates to you that the writer’s intent was to inflame rather than inform.
I guess this is what happens when you don't get vaccinated.
how is this at all surprising news
Looks like Biden, err, Trump should have taken his crab salts!

Thanks for confirming that I'm still safe getting my political guidance from the same place I keep up to date on all of the revolutionary breakthroughs in advanced water drinking and breathing techniques.
IMO the article doesn't read as onion-y and you served us an AMP page for some reason. Please don't do that, not only because of Google but because that serves us a mobile page on desktop.
wow lemmy truly hates joe rogan
I'd prefer not to meet someone that didn't
There's a healthy middle ground that everyone seems to be allergic to. Not wanting to meet someone because they don't hate someone is not healthy. The top thread here has someone making a joke about they wish he'd die. Most of these people haven't even watched his podcast, they just get told to hate him by the media. Article here is a good example of that.
Downvoting people that notice the toxicity and say something as simple as "wow you guys really hate someone" is a good example too.
