Rogan isn’t really about money. He has a value beyond dollars… in the end, he likely has a lot more staying power than Elon, whose fall will probably be faster than the rise.
He’s like a cross of Rush Limbaugh in his early prime, Howard Stern and Art Bell. Exceptional broadcast talent with a safe space to deliver a message.
As a long time listener, lately to me he has become more of a republican mouthpiece. He can’t help but to consistently bring up republican talking points and whatever the democrats did that was crazy this week, while still trying to say “But I’m not democrat or republican”. It’s cringy when he has a good guest on (rare now) who doesn’t want to talk politics but he doesn’t stop. I quit listening after many years, and I tried for last few months to give it a chance.
Lets not forget how in his “comedy” special, he literally says he is like Elon’s puppy following him around believing whatever he says because he’s a “genius”. He changed.
Honestly, he reminds me alot of Rush. Early Rush was very conservative, but also very irreverent. At some point it flipped and turned into the angry guy issuing the talking points of the day.
