It's a total mix with Joe Rogan, on the one hand he's had Alex Jones on his show with the two of them talking about taking drugs to communicate with aliens in another dimension, but on the other hand I thought he did a pretty good job interviewing Andrew Yang and Bernie Sanders before the democratic primaries started. The quality of any single one of his episodes is largely driven by the quality of his guest. I honestly think Joe fills the role of an average guy asking the kind of questions most average guys would ask very well. He also generally sounds sincere, curious and unbiased when he brings people on his show. Yeah someone like Alex Jones can take the show way off the rails, but on the other hand he's interviewed people like Edward Snowden, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Elon Musk, Andrew Yang and Bernie Sanders and had very interesting and thoughtful conversations with them. In fact when it comes to non-mainstream political candidates like Andrew Yang, Joe was one of the few people to give them more than a few minutes to articulate their platform.

I still don't get why Yang is not a "mainstream" candidate. He was by far the sanest (and smartest) candidate in the lineup, and the DNC instead chose two of the least likable people to ever run, one of whom can't remember what office he's running for from time to time.
