Or he merely says he's taking that de-wormer.
Shit like that plays well with his base.

It's the sixth version of The Swamp. What could possibly go wrong?

Still a stupid way to think about it. Sometimes the best health care can't beat COVID. Stupid not to get vaxxed if you don't have any medical reasons to avoid it.DSafetyGuy wrote: ↑Thu Sep 02, 2021 10:34 amHe also has enough money that he will get top-line health care and has zero to worry about.
Not saying it's not. But the overwhelming majority of his listeners don't have those resources and obscuring what he is really doing doesn't protect them. If I were just a touch more cynical, I'd say they had it coming and would enjoy the culling.The Sybian wrote: ↑Thu Sep 02, 2021 11:30 amStill a stupid way to think about it.

Just don't make the same mistake as him and go to law school.Johnnie wrote: ↑Wed Oct 20, 2021 7:28 pm A buddy reached out to me to let me know there's a podcast called "20 Years Done" hosted by a retired aircraft maintainer who's in law school and he mentioned it to me now that my retirement has been approved.
There's like 50 episodes, so I'm staying from the beginning, but it's a pretty cool listen so far. Brings me back to my maintenance days, but also reminds me that I made the right choice in getting out of it.
I might reach out to this guy and ask to be on it. He's retired out of Holloman AFB which isn't that far away.

And congratulations! Very happy for you, but a little disappointed I had to hear about it on Facebook.
Always for the likes... I saw your post here that you submitted, but that's much different than getting approval! And I hate Instagram stories. Why do they disappear? My daughter's coach constantly posts Instagram stories. My wife will ask if I saw the hilarious thing he posted, or the clip of my daughter doing something, I check, and it's gone. What's the point? Am I supposed to constantly check it? Fuck that. And even if it's a permanent post, it's impossible to find shit. And stay off my lawn!Johnnie wrote: ↑Wed Oct 20, 2021 9:00 pmI mean....http://www.sportsfrog.net/phpbb/viewtop ... 98#p339298The Sybian wrote: ↑Wed Oct 20, 2021 8:00 pmJust don't make the same mistake as him and go to law school.Johnnie wrote: ↑Wed Oct 20, 2021 7:28 pm A buddy reached out to me to let me know there's a podcast called "20 Years Done" hosted by a retired aircraft maintainer who's in law school and he mentioned it to me now that my retirement has been approved.

And I also let everyone know I hit the button on the 1st in my stories on Instagram too. I debated whether or not to even post on Facebook, but ultimately I wanted some likes.
(It was only this week they got around to approving my request.)
I know it's copying Snapchat, but I never used Snapchat because it's stupid and pointless. Other than sending naked pics you think disappear, what's the point of Snapchat? My daughter uses it with her friends because it's better than text because you can use more gifs or emojis or something.
Seconded. Really great podcast. By the way, his wife is quite attractive.The Sybian wrote: ↑Wed Oct 06, 2021 9:08 am Really enjoying 544 Days. A podcast by Jason Rezaian, a Washington Post Iran correspondent who was arrested, along with his wife, under suspicion of being a CIA agent and held in an Iranian prison for 544 days. He is a fantastic storyteller and intersperses interviews with various people and news clips about his story. It's amazing how he sounds upbeat and almost joking about some horrific aspects of being held in solitary confinement and mentally tortured for months.
A female friend is on it and she'll pull up the map feature that shows exact locations (in real time) of all the dudes in her stable.

Around episode 4 he referenced his book, so I ended up switching from the pod to the book. A lot more details, but I will go back to the pod and it'll add more color hearing from his mother and friends after reading the book. Really enjoyed the book.Nonlinear FC wrote: ↑Thu Oct 21, 2021 11:18 amSeconded. Really great podcast.

Is BFJ leading a double life?
It's very well done. I'm into ep3... they're making some progress.
He, Bill Simmons, and Marc Maron were the ones that took the medium seriously and made them a new way to consume content.
It took Johnnie recommending his podcast many years ago for me to give it a shot. I thought of him as the Fear Factor Guy and didn't take him seriously. The appeal is, he has interesting and incredibly diverse guests, and has a 2-3 hour conversation and lets the guest speak about whatever. I got bored with it a while ago, as he repeats stories or things previous guests have said (quoting them). He has on comedians, scientists, politicians, authors and occasional nutjobs. Despite the media portrayal of him as a right wing nut, he is actually Liberal to Progressive on most issues.
I completely agree. He says he believes in letting people with bad ideas speak, as debate will shoot down people with bad ideas, but this absolutely doesn't work. I mean, Flat Earthers are suddenly gaining momentum. Most people are too fucking stupid to discern good info from bad. Critical thinking is severely lacking in our society. In my opinion, Rogan is too quick to bring on someone with a unique or controversial position to foster debate without doing much to vet their ideas. He wants to put all ideas out there and let people debate, but morons listening to a quack can't discern whether they are based on good science, and most won't look into the guests to see if their ideas are based on flawed research. The problem is, he wants to keep his show the same as when he started 12 years ago with an audience of 500 listeners, but he needs to accept there is a responsibility to putting out dangerous ideas to the largest podcast audience of any show. He can say "I'm just a comedian" or "I'm an idiot, don't listen to me" because he damn well knows people put stock in his opinions and guests.
hilarious. also...true
Thanks, listened to the first ep and halfway through the second and finding it fascinating. I love stories about how random actions can have enormous societal repercussions. Like one guy in China finding and salvaging a garbage barge full of unsold cassette tapes can bring Western music to China at a time when they were limited to listening to 8 government sanctioned propaganda operas.pruitt2 wrote: ↑Sat Nov 27, 2021 11:57 pm "Radiolab" just did a series on the impact of cassette tapes, and it is really interesting.
The first episode about rock music coming to China is great - https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/ra ... tape-dakou
Also, the story of Khomeini's rise to power has a few facts that almost made me swerve of the road in amazement. Second half of this one
I love the idea that the Chinese bands kind of created their own fusion of styles based on the fact that they listened to everything and didn't realize that punk rock wasn't supposed to have metal-type guitar solos.The Sybian wrote: ↑Mon Nov 29, 2021 12:37 pm
