he's the broiest of the tech bros. I think he's incredibly disingenuous about almost everything he does or says. - mafic Sep 7, 00:18 12
- I have to say he came across as the opposite of a prick in this podcast. He seemed at times depressed or disillusioned. Definitely not cocky. -- nm - Facto Sep 7, 00:30
- and I just generally dislike Rogan. anyone who counts Alex Jones as a friend can fuck right off. -- nm - mafic Sep 7, 00:22 10
  - But they befriended back in 1999 or so, back before Jones was in A Waking Life. It's the "going way back factor". Rogan is clear on Jones saying lots - Facto Sep 7, 00:29 7
    - Before 1999, Alex Jones had already claimed the OKC bombinb was the government's doing; and tried to build a Branch Davidian memorial - Will Hunting Sep 7, 04:52
    - *shrug* still gave him several hours of unchallenged conspiracy garbage on his podcast a year ago. being old friends doesn't cut it. - mafic Sep 7, 00:43 5
      - yeah, the first time he went after the school kids parents should of been the deal breaker. (and I like Rogan) -- nm* - Beaker Sep 7, 05:35
      - Rogan opposed him on just about everything regarding those conspiracy theories though, in those podcasts, from what I've gathered (haven't bothered to - Facto Sep 7, 01:16 3
        
        Rogan didn’t challenge him on anything. The extent of his disagreement on air was the occasional incredulous “no!” - mafic Sep 7, 06:34 1
        
        Must be different "episodes" -- nm - Facto Sep 7, 17:02
        
        Damage is already done. He gave him a huge audience to speak to about his ideas. -- nm - Krusty Sep 7, 05:37
  - They're not super-friendly at the moment. Rogan has stated he won't have him back on in the foreseeable future. -- nm - Facto Sep 7, 00:26 1
    - So Rogan put the sociopath on pause? - Will Hunting Sep 7, 04:46
