> Since Rogan never cares to really question or seriously push back against any claims being made, the guests are free to spout as much "propaganda and BS" as they want

True. Guests are free to BS as much as they want. I would still argue this happens less frequently as you might think and certainly compared to any other interview format/medium.

Rogan has stated many times that there are people who won't come on his show because of the long running time. I take this as evidence that either these would-be guests are either programmed for short-form interviews (e.g. soundbites, making claims they can't back up with any objectivity) or the claims they would make do not hold up to any amount of scrutiny.

In this sense, I think the runtime/medium is the filter for BS – not the interviewer.

From Rogans point of view, a guest seriously bulshitting does that guest a grave disservice.

He sees parsing that and responding to it as our job.

I think it is.
