People who were born or have lived in Austin the majority of your life..what is your opinion on the "Rogansphere" influx & comedy scene?

I don't live in Austin, just wondering what the general opinion is on Joe Rogan, his club, & the 5 year mass migration he sparked of open micers, podcasters, bootlickers, & fans moving to ATX? His standup is terrible & I used to listen if he had an interesting guest on up until a few years ago.

He fucking sucks and everything he does also sucks. Ive seen him a few times. Hes always sweaty and walking around like a total fucking douchebag. Funny thing hes usually alone and people avoid him. Maybe he smells.

He's a rat.  His whole family, rats.

Seriously, those guys are pathetic - they try so hard to be edgy, but the comedy is total one-note shit and the place is poison.

I wouldn’t walk across the street to see LBJ, so no political clowns interest me.

For the record, Rogan is not overtly political.

And that's why he's toxic.  He's a dumb, okey doke, get-along guy that has political guests that are essentially manipulating him and his audience.  He's not smart enough to challenge them and by just nodding along with them, implicitly endorses them and makes them acceptable to his audience.  On occasion, his endorsement rises above implicit to explicit, but I still don't consider him political.

He seems to appeal to the sort of youth that are susceptible to the manosphere because of their impotence (not sexually, but that too) and that's a profitable but bad place to be, really.

I mean at some point the cringe edgelord comedy has to run its course, right?
