Joe Rogan is an entertainment talk show for men. It is not a scientifically peer reviewed journal, nor does it pretend to be.
He's not my cup of tea (well, his stand up is phenomenal but I don't like his podcast). But he's not exactly Alex Jones here. The guy is a goofball but not dangerous.
It's like getting mad because Ellen is still interviewing celebrities instead of trying to change the world. Who cares? Everyone has their niche.
Even someone like Jon Oliver isn't exactly high level intellectualism at it's finest. He's smart, in depth and topical but still makes lots of jokes about Adam Driver and squirrels in thongs.
Lets not lose sight of what we're talking about here. It isn't like the Economist or New Yorker have been co-opted by Joe Rogan or anything.
