The Cult of Joe Rogan

الوصف

This week, Amanda, Reese, and Chelsea are joined by writer and comedian Akilah Hughes (⁠@akilahh⁠) to unpack The Cult of Joe Rogan, the podcast empire that’s convinced millions it’s the last bastion of free thought while quietly shaping how they see science, politics, masculinity, and truth itself. From “I’m just asking questions” rhetoric to the anti-establishment cosplay, we dig into how Rogan became less of a host and more of a cult leader. Is this curiosity culture… or a pipeline dressed up as open mindedness? Grab your protein powder and your critical thinking skills. We’re talking about influence, vibes, and why this very chill podcast sounds a lot like a cult. Subscribe to Sounds Like A Cult on ⁠Youtube⁠!
