I'm just going to keep doing that while you, I mean, there could be reasons why you would want to do that, but you always have to kind of check it.
I mean, Joe's career has changed, right?
Like, when we first got to know him in the MMA side, he was a comedian.
He had done Fear Factor.
There was no podcast.
He was famous because he was on news radio.
I don't know if you remember the sitcom News Radio.
It was even before my time, so it's definitely... But, I mean, at the time, there were big-time comics on it, like Phil Hartman, who was on Saturday Night Live, was on it.
And, um, you know, he was kind of like just that irreverent guy.
He was, he called himself the bridge between the meatheads and the stoners.
And, you know, he was interested in all kinds of fun topics.
And I do think over time, well, dude, I mean, I don't think just his show has gotten more political.
Don't you feel like life?
Every show now.
Well, it just, our lives more broadly have just become politicized.
Like the ways in which we were able to kind of
you know, separate it, segregate that part of it and just have normal lives.
I feel like a lot of that has gone away.
So rather than Rogan just getting more into politics in some kind of unusual way, I would defend him a little bit and say, I think everything has gotten a little more political.
No, that's a fact.
