I nearly noped out on a date with someone when she revealed that she thought the Joe Rogan experience was "funny".

Weirdest thing about listening to jre is that you realize that Joe is deeply unfunny. He has a few funny friends though.

Even his old stand up was just not very good. He seems to be likable on a personal level though so he got along well with the actually funny comedians. I think the Golden age of his career started when he went on Tom Green's internet TV show and got the idea to do the Joe Rogan experience.

Tom Green is often unrecognized as one of the earliest pioneers of video podcasting or whatever you want to call it. His home studio and webcast show were quite ahead of their time, and also had some really great guests and content. I loved the one with Norm Macdonald

Most comedians will bend over backwards to compliment Joe and gas him up about how influential a comedian he is, just so they can use his show as a promotional tool.

He is influential.
What other platform can showcase a comedians unscripted wit for 2 hours?
Rogans just not a good comedian. He's probably better than me, but I'm a pretty low bar.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

Depending on the guests it can be. Some of his comedian friends are quite funny. I like watching Bill Burr tear into him.

Nearly? There’d be a me shaped hole in a wall. Get some real standards bro.

Him: [I might've found my other half!]

Her: "I find Joe Rogan funny"

Him [...it could still be a one night stand]

30-odd years ago someone told me on a BBS: "if you're horny, and can't help it, get a brick and deal with it". I got standards... /s

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

That's even worse than watching his podcast. I've never thought he was funny.
