THE FLIPPENING: CNN has less than 800k viewers. Joe Rogan has 11+ MILLION. Who is the new MAINSTREAM MEDIA??

Things have already shifted. It’s just that the Old Guard hasn’t reported their demise!
His comedy is not funny at all, his friends' comedy is somehow even worse and they are making bank from Netflix for these awful specials. Their crew has ruined standup, there are so many comics that are original, hilarious, deserve a break, but Joe and his douche crew get specials that are the worst I have seen ( at least in the first 20 minutes of unfunny).
His standup is fucking terrible. And this is coming from a guy who used to do open mics and gave my go. My shit was way funnier. I don’t know anyone who actually thinks he is funny. Its like something people just play along with.
Joe’s “crew” are riding his “coat tails” as it were, to use an old phrase. Look at any successful comic or actor that makes it big. They use their success to bring their friends along (which is admirable but short sighted). His friends are marginal comics but get deals because of Joe. I agree about that guy Brandon, he’s a meathead.
