Get some good people on. Don't have to like the guy to enjoy it.

Chris Harris off top gear was ace the other week. Spoke really well and knows his shit.

 

Was a fan in the early days it was fun and sometimes insightful with the guests he had on. Dipped out around 2016 time when it was getting overtly political and he was trying to defend actual neo nazis lol. I'll watch one occasionally if it's a guest i like. Last one I checked he was still waffling about Covid and masks so I turned it off.

Seen the clips of Mark Normand calling him a 'bomb expert' and a 'silver hack gorilla' 🤣

Get leathered by the first guest after 10 minutes. 

"The black and blue-cheese show".

I'm sure that sounded incredibly witty in your mind.

Aye he deffo disappeared up his own backside for a bit. He actually titerd around the vax subject with Trump. Anyone else he'd have gone in with him. He speaks about it in the post show thing he does.

Yeah love Mark Normand :D

Rogans a bit different when hes on kill tony absolutely baked out of his fucking mind :)

 

...Theo Von had JD Vance on other day too.

All the rage these podcasts now. Bigger than telly.

Sorry, I’d forgotten that. I do remember now that you said how much you hated the experience 

It was horrific at the time, but I can laugh at in hindsight. It was just a load of surreal nonsense really, but the timing couldn't have been worse.

If this was a non-English speaking President, nobody would think twice about calling him a Fascist.

 

Tbf it's better than wiffle waffling shite, avoiding answering and pandering for votes like our politicians do.

My mates kids, teenagers, were all over Farage at the last election as 'he did the funniest tik toks'

They will be voting next time round.

I think if someone says they know who is winning the election in the US - then they also have magic beans to sell you.

Basically its so close, in so very few states to determine the outcome, it's pretty much impossible to predict.

Proper knife edge stuff.

Trump is going for the younger votes. There's not many bigger in the US at moment than Rogan and Theo Von and the likes. No sign of Harris on any of these...

Could be a masterstroke from the Big Don.

His team are brilliant at running a campaign. It's the same reason that he turns up to loads of UFC fights.

Trump is winning this btw. 

I agree, it seems to be shifting his way now, and whilst Harris is certainly more coherent, she doesn't seem to have a lot to say, and some of her interviews are terrible (so are Trumps, but just in a different way).

When they staged the assassination attempt, I thought he was nailed on, then when Biden was shuffled (quite rightly) to the side, and Harris appeared then I thought she would be in.....it seems to have swung back now. As ever though, it'll come down to the same few states who decide the outcome

Magic Bean time?

Honestly - no one can tell - look at this - as I say, its currently impossible to call, and every election in the history of time closes as it gets closer to election date. The difference is, there has been a knatt's chuff between them all the way through.

He might win, but you simply can't call it on the 28th October.

To be fair going on Rogan is playing to his base, as Harris is with the female reproduction platform. Its not really a genius move, its just shoring up key support to get out and vote - because Trump's voter base doesn't go out and vote as much as Harris' - hence his crying out to get fat husband's off the sofa at the rally in New York - its so tight that if even a small % of those who actually supoortive him don't turn out, he could lose. The lines are very divided. Young men of lower eductional and scoio-economic backgrounds generally look at Trump as a 'Strong Man' and simply won't go for Harris anyway. Rogan's listenership is overwhemlingly single, young men with no dependants in blue collar jobs cutting across white and latina demographics. He's basically making sure they are active on election day, not really trying to convince them to vote for him.

:rofl: Two words for you mate. No, not the obvious.

Corey Comperatore. Staged my arse. If that wasn't a live round, what made that big hole in the bloke?

A Secret Service shooter -  it's well worth a few casualties if it ensures winning the election   😀 

Eitherway. I think he's in the driving seat now  - although with 8 days to go, that can of course all change in the land of the mad

Extremely funny :D

Wasn't arsed about them reading my daft story. It was when they invited me on as a guest and I stupidly agreed that my head went. One of the worst experiences of my life, because of what was going on in my life/mind at the time.
