The clips posted on PowerfulJRE on YouTube are a pretty good summary of each episode.

The last four were…MMA contracts, Mexican Alien skeletons look fake, Bullet pushing out of his guests arm from bad urban doctors, kickbacks for non generic prescriptions to doctors/clinics.

Lol nobody is silencing him, he’s getting paid 100 mil from Spotify and has creative control.

And he’s podcast not the news. I’m pro podcast just like I’m pro fediverse. The fact an independent creator can reach such heights should be celebrated. But as much as you want to be uncle Ben from spiderman, just because his podcast becomes popular doesn’t mean he now needs to change how he is.

Dudes been talking about ufos for years but now is that no longer “disinformation” because congress had a hearing on it?

So dumb. If people want to talk about ghosts and goblins let them. If this is more of a “we have to stop hateful ideology” thing, It kind of sounds like you need to listen to someone like Daryl Davis a bit.

Even if what you’re saying is true, you’re implying there are “dangerous” ideas that can’t be discussed because someone might believe them. I don’t really believe ideas should be coddled. If these ideas just take over the minds of the impressionable then surely something else will do the same shortly. The exposure rate to ideas in 2023 is very quick. Just because someone has serious beliefs in astrology over astronomy doesn’t mean that we compromise one of the key ideals of being an American.

Nah you’re looking at it all wrong. Nobody watches JRE for Joe, they watch it for the guests.

Joe is pretty close to a blank slate, once you hear him long enough and besides a few exceptions where he intends to be ""hostile “” the whole interview he just will essentially smile and not and just ask exploratory questions you would expect from a Bernie loving stoner (although now he’s in his Texas conservative friends arc). He’s a meat head but it works to his advantage in what I like to call the “one hour test”.

A lot of the people who come on his show (let’s say to say the earth is flat). They’re used to getting immediate pushback and arguing. But Joe is usually like yeah cool, tell me more about the rocks, wait but how does the sun work? What’s on the bottom? Typical softball questions.

I’ve found personally after about an hour these types of people just plain run out of material to talk about that they’ve really polished to sound convincing and the real crazy starts to come out. There are quite a few where they start out with like “according to the water mark striations on the Egyptian riverbed” and you’re like this is interesting…an hour later they’re like “you see the energy gets focused at the top of the pyramid, and they had secret technology that the illuminati hold in secret…” it’s fantastic. They can’t help but drink in that they’re going completely unchallenged on the biggest podcast of the world, and then, the pride before the fall, they step too far and you realize how crazy they are and it all comes crashing down.

If that’s too much time for you to listen to, I understand it’s not for everyone. But it’s good to have under your belt imo just because it’s just like the old Oprah show. It’s a great water cooler background discussion. People know and talk about it (how much they love or hate it) and it’s an easy pop culture win in my book.
