rhhardin said...: I heard TG on Clay and Buck - what a boring monologue. Miles from any quip. No insight.; 5/1/24, 3:57 PM
Joe Bar said...: She has some stands I agree with, but I still do not trust her in a political office.; 5/1/24, 4:10 PM
Readering said...: I clicked random, and it was always Rogan talking.; 5/1/24, 4:11 PM
Howard said...: You could always watch it on free at Spotify and then blast through the ads. I do prefer it on YouTube however.; 5/1/24, 4:14 PM
Mutaman said...: "Present"; 5/1/24, 4:34 PM
The Real Andrew said...: Can someone give a tl;dr version? Any timestamps worth visiting?; 5/1/24, 4:42 PM
RideSpaceMountain said...: I crush hard for Tulsi. We have so much in common. We’re both US Army Officers (although I'm retired). She likes to surf. I like to watch women surf. She likes to do yoga. I like to watch that too. She probably likes to eat food and stuff, and you know what...SO DO I!

It's instant tinderizzma, a perfect match. Swipe right Tulsi. Swipe right.; 5/1/24, 4:49 PM
rehajm said...: The apex of her political career…; 5/1/24, 4:51 PM
NKP said...: She needs to show she can be the boss of something. Maybe Columbia would be a good test.; 5/1/24, 4:51 PM
Achilles said...: The best part about "Reefer Madness" is that you can still find all that bullshit going on in here and ignorant people are still repeating that stuff today.; 5/1/24, 4:56 PM
Chuck said...: I was going to ask if there was any good reason to invest any time in Tulsi Gabbard.

I see that a number of other commenters beat me to it.; 5/1/24, 5:43 PM
Joe Bar said...: I must add that I respect her for her service. We are both Army officers, although I am retired. Both in the reserves, and I know how hard that is. There are rumors of a Trump/Gabbard ticket. I would vote for that.; 5/1/24, 6:43 PM
narciso said...: Yet tucker nor rogan accord her enough respect the latter invited her a dozen times then voted for bernie; 5/1/24, 7:15 PM
Kevin said...: Tulsi has more balls than the rest of the Republican field, with the possible exception of Vivek.

But she'd be much more palatable to the electorate than he would.; 5/1/24, 9:02 PM
Joe Bar said...: I'm about 40 minutes in, and it is clear that Rogan is overcome by his attraction to Gabbard, and talks non-stop. Tulsi has yet to utter any hard policy opinion, or make any commitments. Pols will be pols.; 5/1/24, 9:26 PM
Blair said...: Attractive politicians are a bit like Special Olympics gold medalists, or blue ribbon best-in-breed winners. They deserve a pat on the head for winning their category, but if you want somebody who can actually perform, you're not going to find them there.; 5/2/24, 12:06 AM

Narayanan said...: is statistical different from mathematical / geometrical; 5/2/24, 12:26 AM
Howard said...: Joe is a mere shadow of his former self. Let the girl talk you stupid monkey. He's not in love with her he's in love with himself and the sound of his own voice. He is an accurate example of reefer madness. The impact is more subtle non-violent but every bit as debilitating.; 5/2/24, 4:35 AM
boatbuilder said...: I remember Joe had Bjorn Lomborg on. Lomborg was making great sense and cogently addressing the nonsense that the enviros are propounding about wind, solar, etc., and (as he does) suggesting that we need to focus on some basic common-sense priorities rather than pie-in-the-sky stuff, but Rogan took the interview down a couple of really bizarre rabbit holes about "no-emission" farming and alleged groundwater contamination from fracking, based on some singular anecdotes he apparently read about in Rolling Stone magazine. No matter how hard Lomborg tried to steer things back to the actual big picture points, saying he doesn't know the details of those particular matters and therefore could't debate him about them, Joe wouldn't let it go.; 5/2/24, 7:11 AM
Iman said...: I note a few new members of Alfal… er, Hardin’s “HE-MAN WOMAN HATERS CLUB”.; 5/2/24, 8:53 AM
Narr said...: I see I'm not the only one who finds Rogan tiresome after a couple of minutes. That's a shame, since he gets some actually interesting people on his show.; 5/2/24, 9:32 AM
Krumhorn said...: I was going to ask if there was any good reason to invest any time in Tulsi Gabbard.

This reinforces the view that Chuck is a hopeless idiot.

I had never listened to her for any extended period, but this conversation with Rogan was excellent. She's thoughtful, reserved, fluent, and apparently, unafraid to speak some truth. Of course, like SpaceMountain, I would happily swipe right, but that only confirms my takeaway that she is smart, funny, informed, and impressive....which is exactly who pegs the needle.

If Trump were to pick her as vice president, that would be a great long term investment is fixing what's busted whether you agree with everything she says or not. She's got the right attitude about the bug-eyed lefties.
