    I think a Joe Rogan is a kind of coffee based hair product for presidents, or maybe it’s leaders of the Soviet Union? can’t remember

      CTH isn’t even for “bros”. It’s for dweebs and trans girls lmao. We only think of their audience as “bros” as in “Bernie bros” which had nothing to do with the previous meaning of “bro” but just meant “young male”. The audience was always dorks not buff finance guys or frat dudes

        Thats reality yes but people still dismiss it all as "bro stuff" in their mind and they actually think of Rogan bros and Chapo fans as the same audience.

        Look at the way that like, MovieBob talks about "bros". He associates people to the left of him with the jocks who bullied him in school lmao. Because anyone who's mean to him has to be the same kind of person.

      Chapo Trap House is a podcast about the media, power, PR, and the history of bullshit. It is hosted by Nima Shirazi and Adam Johnson

      I listened to one episode back when I started posting on r/cth and thought "woah this is so boring these people are cool but have bad taste" and then people campaigned for Bernie proving this bad taste

    Time to make up even more obscure guys. I'll go with guy who learned about Rod Dreher through Chapo, became a weird orthodox dude, then started listening to JRE when his new hungarian friends recommended it.

      WTYP-Listener who gets introduced to Jason Slaughter of Not Just Bikes through it, then sticks way to hard about his posts about how america is doomed and becomes a libertarian prepper who gets into online arguments about bicycles are the perfect SHTF vehicle because they require only calories for fuel instead of like global supply chains

      I remember him being so much more animated and personal in the early 2010s(even though he still believed in a lot of crackpot stuff)

      I’m not sure if he actually changed or if I just grew up

        He seemed couch locked the last couple of times I watched him. Like, he smoked too much weed and would rather be napping.

        And I agree, he's always been a crackpot. But I enjoy some of his guests who aren't.

        I think he has slowed down. Like even his responses i see in clips. He doesn't say "whoa and this or that?!" He now goes "whooooa that's wiiiiiiiiiild."
