Joe Rogan: Strange Times

He's not a very good stand up comedian. He's not the worst, but, without his crossover audience of UFC and podcast die-hards he wouldn't be seen as anything other than a slightly below average comedian. His delivery doesn't seem to be polished. He's just yelling most of the time which gets very annoying very fast. And if you've listened to his podcast you've already heard the material. I'm not sure if he's just pandering to his fans or if he really thinks that he's doing original, finely crafted material. At this point I think he's in such a bubble that he isn't really looking at his comedy with an objective lens or taking any kind of negative feedback seriously and all of his comedian friends that are legitimately funny won't give him honest feedback for fear of not being invited onto his podcast which would be a huge hit to them in terms of marketing their own career's.
