This show is trash are you going to recommend I get medical advice from Joe Rogan next?

Non domain expert sitting there making Pikachu face while deeply questionable alleged domain expert rambles on and on for hours is such a low form of information.

Like please stop watching this. It's the same trash format the guy just talks in a soft English accent so his mediocrity is less obvious. You can do better.

What happened to debates? What's up with soft ball interviews and people going on and on for hours unchallenged? What's the point of listening to someone not willing to subject themselves to cross examination?

In the end Joe Rogan was more correct than Fauci's advice.

Most podcasts are not debates but conversations with people who ask open ended questions and get guests to talk and share what they know. The debate gotcha format creates little depth.

I apologize for answering. This is the only episode of this podcast I have ever watched, and I have watched it four times now. The person being interviewed knows what they're talking about. You would learn from them.
