Joe Rogan is moving to Texas in search of "a little bit more freedom."
Rogan announced the news of his relocation from Los Angeles to Texas Friday on his podcast The Joe Rogan Experience.
The move likely comes as little surprise to Rogan's fans, given that the popular comedian and commentator has previously hinted at relocating to the Lone Star State, according to The Hill.
Rogan cited overpopulation, traffic, economic despair and his need for "a little bit more freedom" among the reasons for his decision.

My favorite comment when we are in the weeds: Aww, dont worry! The free market will save you!
I also mention bootstraps a lot.
StrictlyRockers
(3,855 posts)You see through Joe's bullcrap after a while if you're not too slow. Ben "Shabino" too. His arguments are only convincing if you don't question things. smh it's so disappointing that they are so popular. Americans are dumb!

Ive never met a self described libertarian who could put together a coherent thought that could stand up to argument. Its a dead ender POV for simpletons. Theyre actually worse than the GOP in my book. I detest those who have no principles beyond not having principles.

(3,855 posts)It only makes sense if you want it to. It's philosophy for sociopaths!

(26,080 posts)If you are his fan, you know he has been like this for decades, and YOU are carrying his water. So stop.
He is also a shit MMA commentator, and why they don't have someone like Julie Kedzie or Roxanne Modafferi do it is beyond me. Oh wait, because Dana White is a misogynistic TrumpHumper.
They are better podcasts run by better men. Quite being a fan of this sociopath.

(7,418 posts)A really funny NBC sitcom in the 1990s with Dave Foley, Maura Tierney, Phil Hartmann and Andy Dick. His portrayal of the radio station's paranoid, meathead technician came naturally.

(63,221 posts)I must be really out of touch, but I don't really listen to many podcasts and usually only on recommendation. Sounds like I'm not missing much.

No income tax...that is the only freedom he wants.

(6,143 posts)why some fairly progressive people love this racist.
obamanut2012
(26,080 posts)He denies he is a racist. but embraces how he feels about women and LGBT. He has sucked for decades.
He is also a shit MMA commentator. Just a moran.

I have only one comment: you get what you pay for.
betsuni
(25,538 posts)I seem to remember him being embraced by the Sanders campaign because of an endorsement. I guess Rogan wasn't serious about that.
ProfessorGAC
(65,076 posts)He's funny?
He was just reading funny lines others wrote, wasn't he?
Yeah, he's got a following, so popular, I get.
But, comedian?
