Carne_asaDA Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 14 hours ago, KeyserSoze said: Man, people hate Joe Rogan for absolutely no reason, it's quite comical actually. The same people to easily shun him for a headline (WRITTEN BY SOMEONE ELSE) that may or may not be true are also the same people that wouldn't be able to listen to a 3 hour long podcast by him and form their own opinion on the man. I've listened to Joe since 2016 and have gone back and listened to some of his shows before that. He's no stranger to musical guests: it started with a small local band Honey Honey, but eventually led to him interviewing the likes of Everlast, Paul Stanley, Maynard James Keenan, Henry Rollins, Steven Tyler, etc etc the list goes on. The whole idea of the show is like a bunch of college students smoked pot and had a stream of consciousness that they recorded. For those of you that have never had that experience, the common denominator of it is: WHAT IF. and thats where a lot of these "JOE ROGAN SPREADS DISINFORMATION..." headlines come from. "WHAT IF x, y, or z happened?" I think if you gave 3 hours with Joe and Axl, Slash, or Duff in a room, you'd come out with more info then when you started. He just had on Anthony Kiedis recently. And RHCP fans hated because it shows too much of the regular guy side rather than the rock star mystique. People got to realize, JRE is not an interview. It's a conversation that could go anywhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shacklermyrye Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Imagine he had a podcast of his own... Fucking hell the boards would cave in on themselves with joy/anger/rage/ect.

If his guests were limited to those areas, I wouldn't have an issue with him. But he's the last person who should be interviewing many of the people he has on. If you need three hours to interview someone, you're not very good at interviewing. I'd much prefer to hear Howard Stern interview Axl. Stern is great with people who are generally uncomfortable being interviewed. Despite the tone of the rest of the show, Stern is a relatively grounded interviewer who often puts his guests at ease, enabling them to open up in ways that most interviewers do not. Either way, I don't see Axl doing any long-form interviews any time soon. It seems you don't get the point of JRE..because you just made a perfect example of yourself as someone who doesn't know what it's about by writing "interview". How can you seem to know so much about JRE and then write "interview"?? His podcast is literally NOT AN INTERVIEW, but a conversation between people from all walks of life coming in and hanging out. Many people who only tune in when their favourite musician is on there often end up disappointed because they EXPECT an interview, but it's not one and not designed to be one. It is evident if you actually listen to episodes such as with Paul Stanley or David Lee Roth where they don't talk much about the music but life in general and other random things. There is no formula or pre written questions, just free flowing thoughts for 3 hours. Edited January 23 by StrangerInThisTown 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mystery Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 I don't have a problem with Axl on the JRE as much as it being his first interview in 7 years. Like JRE is down the list of interviews I'd like to see him do. I don't know if he still does it but Brian Johnson of AC/DC had a show where he'd hang out and interview fellow musicians that I'd like to see him do.

I certainly don't get why anyone would waste three hours of their time listening to someone meander about irreverent matters. My problem is rarely with Rogan, but his fans who too often blindly accepts whoever or whatever Rogan puts on his program. There are so many better podcasts run by people who spend time researching a subject or person before devoting an entire episode them. I don't take issue with the "shoot the shit" approach, but how often and by so many who find so much value in most of it. 4 hours ago, StrangerInThisTown said: His podcast is literally NOT AN INTERVIEW Again, I mostly agree with that statement. Because if it were a true interview show, it would be unbearable. But really we're talking about semantics. Whether you view long-form conversations interviews or not, there is still much better places to hear the topics covered by Rogan. 4 hours ago, StrangerInThisTown said: Many people who only tune in when their favourite musician is on there often end up disappointed because they EXPECT an interview, but it's not one and not designed to be one. How is there much value in this then? Why am I spending three hours of my day to listen to, say, Steven Tyler, talk about anything and everything save for the thing that makes him interesting? Maybe you have the time to spend on which fish a famous musician likes to catch or what toppings they put on their subs, but I don't. But again, to each their own. If you find value or entertainment in any of that, fine. 4 hours ago, StrangerInThisTown said: It is evident if you actually listen to episodes such as with Paul Stanley or David Lee Roth where they don't talk much about the music but life in general and other random things.

lost un the jungle Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 I can see Axl doing Rogan, they both are funny and Axl can have time to develop answers and not being a fast paced interview. Also Duff can be a chance, his history about recoverying from alcohol through martial arts can be something he can relate with Joe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiritual_Chaos Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 (edited) Be wary of anyone saying "This music artist should do an interview on Joe Rogan" instead of saying they should do one with e.g. Marc Maron. Or even Rick Beato. Edited January 24 by Spiritual_Chaos 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokingarthur Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 At least the show isn’t an echo chamber, I’m just not that interested in his interviews in general. I find Stern more entertaining, or so at least he used to be. I’m not sure Axl would be up for spending that kind of time with anyone in any interview setting much less Joe Rogan.

Beyond that i doubt any interviewer would know much or care to ask many questions besides the Appetite pod. I'm curious to know about the era too but would bet answers would ruin the whole mystic when it's revealed that he wasn't doing much of anything. According to Josh Freese they resorted to making balloon hats out of boredom waiting for Axl to show up I think the best forum for Axl would be a book but that is probably even less likely.

I think there's ways to ask Axl about Chinese Democracy that aren't unpleasant like which songs are his favorite or what it's like performing them with Slash and Duff. I'd love for Axl to expand more about what went on but there's been interviews in the past where he's talked about it. With Joe Rogan I imagine he mostly knows the big hits from the classic albums.

axlslash Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 I'd much rather hear Axl talk to Marc Marron or Howard Stern, or even Conan O'Brien, who actually interview their guests. A blowhard like Rogan wouldn't get Axl to let his guard down much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The conversation can go in any direction and span any topic with the guest. It is not structured as a interview at all and does not need to be about music or business. Axl would be very interesting in this format. We can learn more on how Axl is as a person where he can speak freely and not just hear the generic music interview questions.

Spiritual_Chaos Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 (edited) Let's never forget that Joe Rogan said he was fist-bumping to Rockin' in the Free World in in his car in 1986. The song was written in early 1989. Disinformation all day everyday. Go on Marc Maron Axl. Or Conan. Or that British Apple-dude. Or Rick Beato.
