Joe Rogan finds himself in a tough position after spreading misinformation about Australian policy

Joe Rogan

Joe Rogan felt helpless in one of his recent podcasts after not getting any proof regarding his claims on the Australian government. Rogan was joined by Bryan “Hotep Jesus” Sharpe in his Spotify podcast ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’ .

During the podcast Rogan talked about a ridiculous law that has passed in Australia which stops citizens from agricultural activities.
Rogan explained that there is a place in Australia named New South Wales where it is illegal to grow food for personal consumption. Rogan blamed the government for controlling their people and leaving them with no options. According to Rogan it is a scheme of the Australian government to deal with Anti-vaccine believers. He said :

They were trying to pass a bill that will outlaw you growing your own food in Australia….I think it is New South Wales..They gotta a good grip on people during the pandemic, they lock them down in Australia..that’s how you fucking smoke out an anti vaxxer…you can’t even go to the grocery store and you can’t grow your food,”

In order to prove that incident, Rogan asked his staff to look it up on the internet but there was nothing to be found. Rogan was disappointed after not getting any results about the matter and it was awkward. “That’s gotta be a real thing. It seems too good to not be…Dammit! Better not be fake. It might be fake.” said Rogan.

It’s not the first time Rogan is saying something baseless in his podcast. According to Rogan, he doesn’t do much research about topics and doesn’t decide what to talk about and what not to talk about. This is the main theme of JRE as it is about having candid conversation with the guests without any formalities. While this has helped the podcast to be the biggest in the market and has inspired many other creators to start podcasts, it has its downsides.

With more people watching the show, Rogan has a responsibility which he can’t avoid. At a platform like that, he can’t just go around and talk about anything without any solid proof as viewers might believe everything without cross checking.
