I schooled another man about my wife's competence. A doctor's a doctor! - title of this as a moderately upvoted repost on reddit with mostly positive, supportive comments

Thank you to all the good men who defend their wives like DH did for me! We love you! - title of a less upvoted and commented on reddit repost the next day

I wish people would stop giving the Joe Rogans and Rush Limbaughs of the world more attention than they deserve. Debating whether they're right or wrong about anything just gives them more legitimacy than they deserve. They're a sideshow. They're hucksters waving their hands and making noise to make a buck.

This is a bit embarrassing maybe, but I have actually enjoyed listening to a couple of episodes of the Joe Rogan podcast. In the few episodes I have listened to he has been able to get some good conversations going.

One could easily and rightfully criticize him platforming a lot of his guests, but this is where it gets a bit tricky.

He gives a voice to people that has interesting things to say, that in some way contribute in society or contributes to a discussion, and people that are completely psychotic. The latter should not be platformed, both for their own good and society. Alex Jones was an example of that. Joe Rogan should have stopped that episode in its tracks, or not have aired it.

I stopped listening more as a sort of boycott, not because I could not find any sort of value in his episodes sometimes.

Edit: The reply is probably correct. Joe Rogan does tend to not be skeptical and does platform a lot of evil people as well. The people in his podcast rarely meets any real opposition from Joe.

"if €Gender would ..." - time to say: "No."

Sometimes I want an AI just to block every and all mentions of that American 'podcaster'.

Great comeback.

Good for hubby.

get me the clip of Joseph yelling at a primate scientist because she corrected him

I think it's adorable that you think they'd listen to a male scientist who told them they were being idiots.

Hmm I bet male accidental deaths decreased because of divorced

I cringed
