squeeze, the point is you have to do a better job of screening the material you are initially attracted to.
First, the headlines are often clickbait.
Second, the minor, inconsequential commentator talking over the clips is just layering their topspin on to well-known podcasts. They are also often dry and unable to attract attention without piggybacking on well-known podcasters. On the conservative side, Dave Rubin would be a case and point. I think he's been reduced to commenting on top of other's work.
Just as importantly, you are placing too much importance on Joe Rogan himself. At the end of the day, he is just another talking head who is a prominent podcast forerunner.
PS- I'm fairly certain you didn't watch the Joe Rogan clip to the end. Rogan starts talking about the possibility that Pretti's gun misfired in the scuffle. He has previously discussed that the gun in question has a history of misfiring. I have never posted any of that here because it's pure conjecture on his part. Mark down that word CONJECTURE.
