is it a turn off for you if your partner listens to the Joe Rogan Podcast?

    My boyfriend watches him all the time, should I be worried? :check-bee:

    OIIIII :holding-back-tears:


    I only watch the episodes for the guests, one can’t deny that Joe pulls the best guests.


    He’s had so many astrophysicists, rogue scientists and UAP conspiracists on so it can get either really educational or just pure madness. It’s entertaining!


    But I don’t agree with his stupid bro-science crap at all :*

  • the question is how does the show affect your bfs personality and character?


    everybody is free to consume whatever content they're interested in

    the question is does that content or those thoughts affect him as a person?


    does he spew toxic shit (or adept at hiding it?)

    does his views on the world align with yours?

    etc etc

  • I would say to check out the content if you’re able to and decide for yourself how you feel about it. Then, by extension, you’ll know how you feel about your boyfriend consuming this content.


    It’s a bit iffy to rely on others’ opinions when evaluating your own relationship. Everyone is different and every relationship is different. Context also matters. Your boyfriend might be watching these videos, but he might not be agreeing with absolutely every point that’s made. Sometimes healthy disagreements and debates even happen on podcasts and talk shows, so it’s up to the listeners which stance they wish to proceed.


    As long as your boyfriend is able to think for himself and makes reasonable decisions in the relationship, it should be okay. Don’t let the Internet dictate how your relationship should or shouldn’t be either. Other people don’t have the context that only you and your boyfriend have about the relationship.


    That’s the problem I see with this trend about “red flags.” It’s just not good advice since it’s not taking much context into consideration.


    Keep in mind that some people are just miserable and don’t want to see others being in a relationship. They won’t admit this, though. If they’re single and talking about “red flags” all the time, it’s worth wondering why they’re so fixated on cynicism.
