@@hugo9547Here’s my thoughts on Rogan’s show and the guests he picks; It seems to me that he always try’s to get new interesting guests, but after 4000 episodes he has to just fill the spot. He went from an unknown podcaster to THE podcaster, he has to fill the episode, and so his choices sometimes aren’t the best. I do like some of his episodes with his friends though. His podcasts with Duncan Trussel, who besides his show doesn’t have much ground to be there besides being Joe’s good friend, are some of my favorites he’s ever made. I also really enjoy his old Joey Diaz episodes. There’s two sides to Joe’s show. Interesting and educated guests like Brian Cox or Jimmy Carr, and the other side which is his buddies and entertainment/fun people like Joey Diaz or Tom Segura.

But some in power are hyperventilating about money when confronted, so while gulping down air they then guilting us for still being alive to breathe. They tell us to breathe less so they can breathe more. Why should I listen to them when they have no regard for anyone else in the sealed box?

It's a consumable catalytic reagent, used to take the sulfur out of the fuel and reduce particulate pollution on account of the deathly smog.

Joe's right about resources, just because they may be obsolete in 10 years doesn't mean you can't make money hand of fist with it in current conditions.

He talks about these things a bit naively though. It doesn't matter that oil will stop being the primary fuel for vehicles at some point, it is now and that means if you make a fortune out of it you will be in the best spot to take advantage of whatever comes next to replace it. Also he didn't seem to know the difference between nuclear fusion and nuclear fission, the nuclear power plants we have now use fission, the article they pulled up about BP investing in nuclear power was fusion (completely different thing). Fusion is like the holy grail of power sources but we haven't developed the technology far enough to make a functional power plant yet. Fission is basically the same principle as a steam trains engine, you heat up water and the steam turns turbines, except instead of burning coal you use radioactive material, which in fission power plants is a very specific isotope of uranium, an incredibly rare substance. If we changed all of our power production to nuclear fission power plants they have calculated that we would run out of this isotope in quantities to be a viable power source within decades.

[@c6q3a24]

@@musicplaylists59 They've been telling us the same outright lies about oil and gas for the last 50 years. It's always just about to run out, and it never does. The supply of oil is near infinite, it's only a question of commerciality. How much will it cost to extract this oil, and how much can I sell it for? Technological innovation is constantly solving that problem. That's why fracking was invented - the cost of oil became so high that it drove a technological revolution.

Carr is right about nuclear but is repeating nonsense Climate propaganda

I’ve not spoken to but I have had the pleasure of listening to Jimmy speak in humour and constructive conversation and I’d do it over and over again. Obviously not the same material or subject matter. His unhesitant and articulate verbal skills are an absolute joy.

Carr talks a lot of sense. It’s great to hear.

No, Carlin knew "save the planet" was horseshyt and mocked it. Jimmy has bought it , hook line and sinker.

I watched a couple videos about nuclear waste. It's nothing like it's portrayed, it really seems safe. I guess the major fear is not the waste but the plant getting out of control.

The US military is the one promoting and guaranteeing slavery. How can he be so naïve to expect the exact opposite from the same people and forces, who are the beneficiaries of such policies, btw.

[@nichobee]

This is a very roundabout piece of logic. The US military promotes US foreign interests, it doesn't go out of its way to promote slavery. If you think it does, prove it. There are no solutions in the world, only trade offs. For all the faults of the US, I'd rather them policing the world than China or Russia.
