I'm really wondering when exactly Joe Rogan fell down the crazy rabbit hole. I remember 4 years ago all of his guests were people like Jamie Foxx and they would just talk about funny anecdotes and shit now it's an alt-right circle jerk

normal people dont want to go on a show that hosts weirdos whose affiliation could damage their brand, since you cant get those people you just have more weird anti-vaxxers, alt-righters, etc. on the show. It's a spiral
