My 27 yr old sibling is a hard core follower of Joe Rogan 💩

What are some progressive channels/people/content that I could have my sibling start watching instead?

Preferably something that has a similar flavor - example: male host, muscular, easy to digest. I think that will make the transition easier.

My personal preferences are Seth Meyers and John Oliver, but Last Week Tonight (John Oliver) is even a heavy watch for me sometimes!

[No Andrew Hubbard. He’s another fake.]

Thank you!

    He has also had Bernie Sanders on and pretty much agreed with him on everything.

    I haven’t paid that much attention to Rogan since he moved to Spotify and have only heard a couple episodes since the exclusivity deal ended. However almost equally controversial character I do listen to almost religiously is Sam Harris and virtually every single time I hear someone criticizing him it’s clear as day that they’re just parroting some slander article (or likely just the title of it) without having having any clue about what was actually said and in which context.

    Nowdays when ever seemingly everyone suddenly decides to start hating on some person I just assume the critics are just as informed as is the case with people accusing Sam of saying things he haven’t. It’s actually quite hilarious that the people who haven’t listened a single episode think they know the person better than a long-time listener who has been following them for years.
