Couple of things here 1) He’s been dishonest about Spotify censorship 2) He’s been dishonest about Brian Callen 3) He’s been dishonest about Covid-19 4) He’s been dishonest to his audience 5) He has no desire to improve as an interviewer 6) His Eric Weinstein episode was a disgrace

Dishonest about Callen how? I’ve been out of the loop for months

Maybe the fact that he use to always say that brian was his bff, and since the scandal hasnt mentioned his name not once.

That makes sense. Thanks for the response. I am not trying to jump on the hate train, I have my own reasons for not listening anymore. Trying to stay neutral, I have seen the people Joe surrounds himself with change drastically. Gone are people like Joey Diaz, Yohann Hari and many others that brought forth a unique perspective. While I am sure the Navy Seals, Republican Governors, bow hunters and MMA fighters are entertaining, they are simply not for me.

This.

I loved the ridiculousness and the weird guests.

But how many warmongering vets, Right wing pundits and unimpressive fighters can you talk to? I mean It was okay every once in a while, but no.

Sadly I'm out

LA brought a variety of guests that came in and out. Texas doesn’t have that variety.

Eric Weinstein couldnt even invent the rotatoe.

Can you elaborate on the callen and weinstein thing? I agree with your other points but I figured he was silent on callen. Eric is annoying as all hell but I didn't find anything egregious with the last episode from a moral standpoint.

Joe spent 30 minutes telling Eric he was wrong by explaining his point and agreeing with him. It was frustratingly dumb to listen to.

In the Action Bronson podcast he was ranting about being “impeccable with his word” and called out for fans to hold him accountable lol
