Lex wants to be Joe Rogan so bad.,(reply>), @Carlos I agree we need the open forum. But Joe himself is interchangeable or rather not even necessary. The issue is the networks, or apps, or sites censoring the transmission of ideas. In that regard all have failed. I will note that many of the people you listed some of which I like, are all biased some quite heavily. <br><br>Joe is ok, he just receives way too much adoration that should be directed at his guests. The Joe Rogan podcast is nothing without the guests but an ape talking about weed and shooting stuff.<br><br>We need more people like his guests, not more people like Joe.,(reply>), @Kyle Gushue Having spaces in which people can freely explore ideas (even if they are wrong) without the fear of being fired or canceled is extremely important. That's what has been driving progress in the last 500+ years since the Renaissance. Joe Rogan is willing to have those difficult conversations openly and in good faith. Does he miss the mark sometimes? Yes, who doesn't? But who is doing a better job than him? CNN? FOX? Evergeen's Gender Studies Department?<br>You don't like Joe, that's fine. Here you have Lex doing a great job. There is Sam Harris, Jordan Peterson, The Weinstein brothers, Ben Shapiro, Neil Degrasse Tyson, Alex O'connor...<br>You may not agree with some of them (I sure don't), maybe you don't like any of them. But they are out there trying to have open conversations about difficult topics. And that's is what I think we need more of.,(reply>), @Carlos we don't agree just curious about your reasoning. In my view there are more than enough potheads sitting around talking. Joe has done nothing more than that.,(reply>), @Kyle Gushue It's ok man. We don't have to agree on this. But I think having a forum where different ideas are openly discussed is a good thing. We need more of that.,(reply>), What does the world need more podcast hosts for? Rogan talks but does nothing.
