Like many of us, I was first introduced to Joe by the tv series, "Fear Factor."
Not long after, I started noticing Joe popping up in the mainstream media quite a bit not realizing who this dude really was and how he thinks. After
watching one his stand up comedy movies, I opened up to more of this dudes thought process as it resembled much of what I have been researching for
the past four years.
The guy is very intelligent and open to more realities than what our establishment feeds our society.
There's also a convincing possibility that Joe may frequent the ATS Community.
Hope you enjoy!

Joe Rogan is an intelligent man and I love all his drug stories. I learned about isolation tanks from him and want to get my own one day. I also enjoy
the fact that he commentates the UFC. He seems like a great person and we need more people like him in the mainstream.
I am a huge Joe Rogan fan! I first loved his style of comedy then his philosophy and approach to life is what made me like him the most.
Joe Rogan is proof that you can cuss up a storm and still carry an intelligent message and convey yourself in an intelligent manner..despite what ATS
thinks on that..
MODS: Sorry for posting the drug use video. I loved that speech and wanted to share. Thanks for removing it and not deleting the entire thread. I
completely forgot about that guideline.
He's just a comedian, but he talks about really interesting stuff in a really funny way. I'm actually a member of his forum, but that's a place
most here probably shouldn't venture into. Very different atmosphere from this place.
I don't understand how my post was off topic. I mentioned that Rogan was in a very good documentary.. so to the mod who decided to mark it off-topic:
why?
Joe Rogan is one of those few entertainers who isn't afraid to discuss the things most people shy away from.
His greatest strength isn't his intelligence though, it's his ability to communicate his ideas, which is why he's such a successful stand up comic,
TV show host, and sports commentator.
Don't get me wrong, he's a smart guy, but smarts aren't useful if you can't communicate the ideas they generate.
If you check the OP again you'll see a *snip* below the first video.
I originally posted Joe Rogans famous speech on '___' but was clipped out by the mods.
Understandable though, ATS doesn't want to be responsible for being a source to the promotion of
any drug related substances, in this case, the most illegal substance.
I find it strange that "Off Topic Post" was replaced in your response.
I got at the bottom of the OP, "removed video referencing illicit drug use" which makes sense.
Ya Joe Rogan is a funny dude, and a great mma commentator, and even though his ideas and premonitions aren't new, they do need to be looked on from a
different perspective now and again, to get a wider panaramic picture of things, other then the happy meal drive through perspective that most on
this planet seem to cruise on, on cruise control.... just following the status quo. You know from what i'v seen from his youtube vids he puts out,
he seems like a guy that would be on a site like this, or at least lurking once in a while, and probably even wearing a tin foil hat. Well maybe not
the tin foil hat.
Joe is a good man and puts things into an interesting perspective, that what makes him a great comedian. I always have to listen to him, because he
almost reminds me of a young Terrance.
I dont know how to sat this without getting flagged by the mods, but as Joe states in an interview on a radio show, psychedelic hallucinations is what
triggers the mind to change the perception of the reality we are currently living in.
Like you said, he definitely is one out who knows how many famous others that has the balls to bring up such topics. And I think personally, it's
because he knows, knows that something else exists than what we're taught in our everyday ordinary lives.
I agree. Joe Rogan seems to have a gift of being able to communicate his ideas. Like most people i first heard of him through fear factor, then as a
UFC commentator. After seeing these clips and a few more on youtube, i realised that Joe is a pretty smart thinking man. Those tanks he talks about
sound amazing too. I'd love to have one in my house!
