Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted February 13, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted February 13, 2018 So, from that Reddit thread, the speculation is that Rogan may have posted some stuff down the years that could now be used against him in the current climate. Is that accurate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that accurate? I imagine that based on watching some of his podcasts, including earlier stuff and some of his stand up in the past, I can’t help think it’s probably accurate. He’s an opinionated edgy comedian. A pretty shit one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted February 13, 2018 Moderators Share Posted February 13, 2018 I'm sure there's plenty, but removing the forum won't do anything.so I wouldn't have thought that is the reason. All that shit is still archived online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried to use it for forums in the past and it has been fairly useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators neil Posted February 14, 2018 Moderators Share Posted February 14, 2018 Having tried finding old pics of retired camgirls I can concur that archive.org is pretty useless for forums and a massive tease (as are dead links to imagesites)  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoUseforaUsername Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 I remember Joe Rogan having an epic flame war with a random college kid on Myspace about a decade ago. One thing I distinctly remember, aside from how pathetic it is that a millionaire would spend several hours going back and forth with someone over something so trivial, is that the kid got the best burn - despite not being a professional "comedian". It was "enjoy balding". It was funnier and more cutting than anything Rogan said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators neil Posted February 15, 2018 Moderators Share Posted February 15, 2018 Joe Rogan really isn't a good comedian. I listen to his podcast because he has some entertaining guests, but I'm always shocked at how often he completely misses jokes made by his guests. Guest: That'd be like a pig flying a plane! Rogan: Wait, hold on, pigs can't fly planes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re right though, he occasionally has decent guests, but the amount of times they say something to him, it goes completely over his head, then they have to repeated the point and break the point down as if speaking to a child. His round up videos are even worse. He decides that he is the focus of them rather than the guest. 15 mins of him not getting jokes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted February 15, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted February 15, 2018 Surely not the same Joe Rogan who clearly considers himself near, if not in, the upper echelon of standups? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d-d-d-dAz Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 To be fair, he’s clearly ‘for’ a certain audience. And that audience isn’t British. There’s some American comedians that travel well but there’s a lot that don’t; the style seems to lack any nuance, or shade, or inuendo, or playfulness... it’s just ‘in your face’ shouting and obviousness. That said, his childlike wonder and amazement at new things makes his podcast very funny at times. Big fan of him on that. But, yes, his stand up can get in the bin regardless of how hugely successful he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted February 16, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted February 16, 2018 His last special was ok. I've never really rated his stand up much too, but I laughed a couple of times during Triggered. Although laughing twice over a number of specials is obviously not exactly a mighty endorsement. Thing is, I think Rogan comes up with some pretty decent concepts for some of his jokes but he's really shit at crafting them. Rogan's podcast is a treasure, though. From Wim Hof to Joey Diaz, it's such a varied listen. Even if literal Joe just doesn't get jokes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Kaz Hayashi Posted February 16, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted February 16, 2018 The format of the show and it’s potential is great, but the presenter is a bit guff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
