Ron can tell a joke about a thing without it really being about

that thing. Zample:
You guys probably heard that my pilots quit, and immediately went to the newspapers to talk about it. Headlines were Ron White Gets Drunk On His Plane, Ron White Smokes Weed On His Plane, Ron White Has Sex On His Plane. Takes a sip from his drink. It was MY plane.
Funny. But of course the point was, Why can't we all just chill a bit?

I think that path he started walking after he blew up

is what started annoying me about him. His first standup show special, hour-long whatever it was, was hilarious. Goes on tour, makes millions, releases another one a year or two later (this was all, what, 10 or 15 years ago, it seems like?). Seemed like half his jokes were about being on a private plane, with stacks of cash banded in $10,000 straps, and something about smoking weed on a plane.
I'm listening to this and thinking his bread and butter, what made him famous and identifiable and relatable, was the "Blue Collar" tour. And suddenly, he has blindingly white and very obviously fake veneers, and it seemed like half his jokes revolved around his fame and money...that none of his original fans would identify with.
Shame, since he was the only one of those 4 dudes that was ever even remotely funny.

And that's what they should be taken as. Great comedic talent.
Not more than that. Remember, it ain't hate directed at Rogan. It's hate directed at people who look to him as their beacon for serious decisions.

Never really thought Rogan was that funny, but I like how he conducts his show.

starts interjecting his own opinions on #### he knows nothing about and meatheads take it as gospel because UFC.
The same types who wear the skull defender shirts

That is their uneducated problem

not his and many times, Rogan will say, "tell me about _____ I have heard this ______, now you tell me". He does interject opinion, but you have to decide.
Its something called personal responsibility, which I know is hard to comprehend.

He might be the most unfunny person on the planet.

You would think with all of the left-leaning comedians....

out there that Comedy Central would have replaced him by now. I've tried to watched his show a few times and it's unwatchable. Even his commercials, which you would think would be the funniest part, are horrible.
Comedy Central should just run South Park, Reno 911, and The Office and call it a day.

Podcast I am talking about he says, don’t do that, don’t look to him, look to his guests, look at the science or the evidence, look at his counter interviews. He isn’t asking anyone to look to him.
You would only know that if you listened.

Again, the fault's not with Rogan. It's with his fan boys.

He's a good talk show host that pulls interesting guests, and typically stays away from hyperbole. Probably one of the better talk show people out there.
