Well his comedian friends would disown him if he didnt and I genuinely think he still takes pride in his work.

I dont like Rogans politics but I actually respect him as a comic. I dont love his material, but in the same way that Katt Williams isnt writing jokes for suburban white folks, Amy Schumer is writing jokes for wine moms and woo girls. I can respect the joke writing and act even if it doesnt resonate. I think he is a good (not great) comic and probably still cares greatly about it.

Yeah I'm not a fan or anything but professionally he's been pretty consistent with his humor. I remember him calling out Carlos Mencia for stealing other (smaller comedians) material.

It was apparently pretty true so it really made Rogan look like a good dude, standing up for his peers against someone who was really starting to blow up (by stealing their material).
