That isn't "presenting both sides" of a debate. It's giving an undeserved platform to a Fing nutjob and somehow pretending like he's on equal footing as experts in the field.

This is who Rogan is, he's always been a contrarian dispsheet who smokes some DMT and suddenly thinks he has all the answers in the universe. I know the harm to public health isn't the same but he'd regularly have on guys that claim they've been abducted by aliens and then try to use that when discussing the topic with guys like Neil Degrasse Tyson. The only crazy part is how people are naive enough to keep agreeing to do the podcast.

You wanna smoke weed and talk about conspiracy theories with crazy people and astrophysicists, go for it. You wanna promote batshit crazy people like RFK and give them a platform on issues that genuinely effect people's well being than you can get Fed.

June 22, 20232 yr You guys are so afraid of open communication and dialogue. If someone is being ridiculous then he/she should be heard and people can judge for themselves. The idea that a scientist shouldnt debate a non-scientist is ridiculous. Now getting to the most important stuff--are Musk and Zuckerberg going to right and if so, who ya got?
June 22, 20232 yr I'm sure absolutely nobody is surprised that a toothless rube from the dumbest state in the country would go to bat for someone who thinks WiFi opens up the blood brain barrier.
June 22, 20232 yr Australia gives Twitter 28 days to clean up ‘toxicity and hate’ https://www.euractiv.com/section/platforms/news/australia-gives-twitter-28-days-to-clean-up-toxicity-and-hate/ Quote In November, Musk declared a broad amnesty that allowed tens of thousands of suspended or banned accounts to rejoin the platform. "Twitter appears to have dropped the ball on tackling hate,” said Inman Grant, who worked on cyber safety at the company after 17 years at Microsoft. She said the watchdog was "far from being alone in its concern about increasing levels of toxicity and hate on Twitter, particularly targeting marginalised communities”. "We are also concerned by numerous reports of content remaining widely accessible that is likely in breach of Twitter’s own terms of service.”
June 22, 20232 yr WVMike wants to give real life Communists bigger microphones. How surprising, comrade.

I enjoyed his BS talking with other comedians and dumb guests while in the car pre COVID but during and after COVID, dude is now an expert in everything and just comes off as a pompous rich a-hole.

Yeah the only time I'll watch an episode is if someone like Chapelle, Burr, Segura or Bargatze are on. I don't think Louis has been on yet oddly enough despite him being on other podcasts like YMH, 2Bears, Theo's, and Shultz'. Wonder if there's some bad blood there.

The thing with Scientists debating Rogan is, he isn't having them on to have his audience be persuaded by the science, he's asking them on to present some asshats combination of conspiracy theory and anecdote wrapped up in made up stuff as having equal intellectual weight as peer reviewed rigorously documented scientific results. The fact that there are large media organisations and prominent social media influencers in America, dedicated to making American's dumber, to deliberately misinform them about politics and economics is bad enough, but to do it with medical science and climate science should be a huge concern to American people and their government.
June 22, 20232 yr Impregnating 4s To be fair though, one of his wives was pretty decent Edit: it was Talulah Riley. She ain't no 4, fam.

That's the **** part of it, his interviews with comedians were genuinely entertaining. And his new comedy club is apparently amazing. It's a shame it went to his head.

The way he was cracking up when Bill Burr wouldn’t take the bait on the masks leads me to think to him it’s just a way to get clicks.

Me posting here is proof that Im not afraid to debate with absolute morons like you, and scientists should be able to do the same. The answer is never less open dialogue and "bro, believe me bro" science. My point is that it should be spectacularly easy for an educated scientist to show up and humiliate this guy on his own podcast. He should be able to make short work of him. No reason to run and hide.

But that's who people are listening to. Ive actually never listened to a podcast in my life. But true intellectuals shouldnt be afraid to engage in open debate with anyone. Running away from the problem doesnt make it go away

June 23, 20232 yr Tale of the tape: At an estimated 1.87 metres (6ft 1in) and about 85kg (13st 5lb), Musk is several weight classes above Zuckerberg, who measures 1.71 metres (5ft 7ins) and less than 70kg (11st) Musk is a lot bigger but 12 years older. Zuck has apparently been "training" but Im guessing thats with a bunch of dudes who he pays to make him feel like Steven Segal. Id say if Musk didnt get him early, Zuck probably wins in the late rounds. Or they both just stroke out.
