OT: Uncle Ted on Joe Rogan's Podcast

[CochiseCowbell]

Just finished listening to this. It's basically all the OT topics discussed on this board: hunting, guns, conservation, farming, music, politics, marijuana legalization debates, guitars, archery, ****** journalism, history, industrialization, DNR, the deer disease (forgot the acronym), etc.

This will probably get locked & it's not my intention. It's a really good 3 hour conversation. I don't agree with everything either of them said. But, we should all agree on:

ETA: The Motor City Madman starts off a little crazy about archery, but settles in after that.

I like Rogan’s podcast but he is all over the place. It seems like whatever guest is on is what his views are going to be that day. He just seems to conform to his guest and doesn’t dare have an opposite opinion of them

Haven't listened yet but Uncle Ted is 17'n awesome.

Rogan is also very often high as hell. It’s sometimes hard to have an argument that way.

I don't listen to all his podcasts & you both could be correct. I only listen when someone intriguing is on. The first one I heard was with Dan Carlin.

I disagree. He has debates with guest regularly. Now if he has a guest on that’s really smart on a specific topic, he won’t challenge them but rather try to get them to unload tons of info in a way the listeners can understand. He disagreed and challenged Nugent multiple times in this interview. While this pod was interesting, Nugent comes off incredibly self-absorbed I thought.

the deer disease (forgot the acronym)

CWD - chronic wasting disease

Only thing that sucks worse that Nugents music is his politics

Ted is the man! Nugent in 2024 and watch heads explode!

There's at least one in every thread.

It's hard for a stance to be taken seriously when you can't articulate it.

For the record, I'm not necessarily on The Nuge's side.

Same here. I share some of his views but find his way of saying things over the top at times. I had a chance to work with him time to time for about a year and a half and he is a pretty sharp dude when he's not on camera.

I do give him respect, for one thing, he practices what he preaches.

Clearly, you have never gotten a lap dance to "stranglehold"


An 8 min 30 second national treasure.

Love me some Uncle Ted. It helps I'm a conservative/self reliance/small govt kinda guy who loves rock n roll and isn't easily offended.

I enjoy Joe Rogan's podcasts. He is an open listener and only shuts down a guest if they are spouting misinformation or outright lies. He will post the facts right then and there if they continue to push their narrative. If you don't believe me, watch his episode with Steven Tyler. Even a rock legend doesn't get a pass.

The Marijuana industry should make him their poster child. He is the exception to the dead pot head/Spicoli persona.

 

[Hankp22]

I did not make it 15 minutes

I turned it off after Ted referred to himself as the Motor City Mad Man a third time.

It has nothing to do with his views on politics. It had everything to do with him sounding full of himself.

The interview may have settled down and hit some high points later. If so, I missed it.

 

[FreeDawg]

I got that same thing. Dude’s ego was nauseating

I disagree. He is usually respectful to his guests and always has an open mind, but he will argue with them if he doesn’t agree. I thought he was going to make Steven Crowder cry on that episode.

One thing he does, is bring industry experts on his show. Most of the time he doesn’t have the knowledge to debate them. It seems to me like he is always trying to learn.

I love the longform setup of his show where he and the guest can actually have a conversation rather than yelling at each other for 5 minutes.

Love me some Uncle Ted.

Ted loves him some Ted too. It's great entertainment.

Sorry, but 17 draft-dodging, mental illness faking Ted Nugent. I will admit that Stranglehold is a great song.
