What's /sci/'s opinion of Joe Rogan? Is he the philosopher-scientist of a generation?

He is an idiot. He touches upon scientific fields, which is good because it at least exposes his moronic fans to things other than...well...You can imagine the kind of horseshit his fans must expose themselves too.
I mean he hosted Fear Factor for Christs sake. His credibility is as soft as cooked elk cock.
Big fan of Rogans podcast and enjoy his commentary on ufc
With that being said, his podcast is mainly Bro Science, Bro/Hippie philosophy. His guest are usually the same deal, ocassionally he will get a legit guest that fully knows what their talking about and has hard facts to back them up
>>8179594
Yes.

he's an entertainer, that's it, a very good one. Almost everything he touches on science related he either misinterprets it to make it seem spooky or he is just spouting broscience.
Just look at the shit he sells on his podcast; Alpha Brain is it? The study he cites has a fucking sample size of 36 people and the benefits were unfounded at best.
I listen to him for his guest, most things he says is just cringe worthy "DUDE WEED XDDD" shit

He always just devolves to bullshitting about muh podcasts.
In a recent episode with Russell Brand, it was like the easiest interview in the world just because of his guest's charisma. Joe Rogan managed to somehow derail him, and bring the conversation back to how amazing podcasts are

anyone who derails russel brand is okay in my book

What's your problem with russel brand?
>be most credulous person alive
>somehow have a radio show
>invite scientists to correct misconceptions
>endless stream of "what about the..." followed by SSS-tier conspiracy fantasy
>scientist patiently corrects all of these
>it's obvious rogan isn't learning anything
At least he's not as bad as his fans; holy shit some of these people should be in a mental hospital.
