    The drug addict?

    The Rogan/Peterson episode was solid. He was quite forthright on how he got sucked into getting hooked

    Dude even my mom loves Jordan Peterson

    Jordan Peterson is a clown. If I wanted to listen to sanctimonious assholes using $3 words in an attempt to impress others I woulda stayed in Seattle.

    Agree. I mean, I got entertainment value for my zero dollars spent, but I thought that shit was all over the road.

    He sounded like he was fighting through some physical pain or something

    Agree - either he's aware that this is his last rodeo and is going out in a blaze of glory or he's still recovering from the physical and mental distress.

    I think he's aware that we are at a crossroads between freedom and fascism.
    100%

    Actual fascism (Hi @TheKobeStopper!) is something he's studied the shit out of. The Gulag Archipelago is oft referenced.

    You got a lot of downvotes on this, but I actually somewhat feel you here. I, myself, like Peterson - always have - and a lot of what he has to say is spot on, and occasionally he can be quite insightful.

    But in addition to seeming to be a little emotionally unstable - and he's been that way as long as I've listened to him - he does seem to, at times, to play up the academic platform a bit in a seeming attempt to lend more credence to what he has to say. It's like he's reminding everyone that he's just as smart as those pompous ass liberal elite academics and wants to remind everyone he's one of those too, but with better views. I mean, both of those things are true, but I see your point ... it wanders into a schtick a bit for me.

    Whereas, say, Shapiro seems to be entirely who he is and he lays the lumber on people without seeming to try to play to the audience the way Peterson does. Like I said, I like Peterson, but I've always felt there's a little bit of bullshit there with him. I've also never, once, heard him say, "Not my area - I really don't know," where Shapiro is pretty straight with where he feels like he has a good grasp and where he doesn't.

    I like Doug Murray more than all of them. Also a pompous ass, but for him it's entirely who he is. Like Shapiro, I feel like you are listening to the man the way you'd hear him if you were over beers or in the audience.
    Spot on. I like him for the most part, but can also get annoyed by him.

    When people put out hours and hours of content, you aren’t going to agree or be entertained by all of it.

    That’s why the Rogan hate that even his own fans partake in is so stupid. He puts out 4 shows a week that are 2-3 hours. There are going to be boring guests, Joe is gonna be repetitive at times. They don’t have to listen and pick apart every fucking episode.
    This is the part of podcasts I don't get. The length. Mrs. Swaye was listening to the Shapiro podcast while cooking dinner last week. It was entertaining for 45 minutes. By the time dinner was ready I didn't want to hear him anymore. And I usually agree with him. I love Rogan. For an hour. I can't imagine listening to him and his guests for 3 hours 4 times a week.

    But I was never the type who could listen to Stern do his entire show daily. 30 minutes? Sure.gif. 4 fucking hours?!?!?!!? No thanks. I guess some people like it. I have better things to do.

    Try red eye radio... I love those guys... I listen every day after they put their overnight broadcast into a podcast... 100 minutes then 70 minutes... they do a great job analyzing everything from conservative libertarian point of view.

    We’ve been condition to have short attention spans these days. I rarely watch one hour shows anymore. Radio the same. I move in and out of shows over their 3 hours.

    I admit to watching Resident Alien. I like the quirkiness.

    Same. Watching/listening to Howard for too long is like watching too much porn. It's awesome, but at some point you start to weird yourself out and suddenly feel the need to shower.

    I'll listen to full 3 or 4 hours of Rogan depending on the guest. And usually that's broken up over a couple sessions. JPeterson was a full listen over 3 days. Pierre Kory and Bret Weinstein -full listens, probably 2 sessions.

    But then I'll go several days without even tuning in. Some MMA guy - who cares?

    I get my news above the waistline, sunshine.
