It’s hard to listen to. Not only because of the shite he comes out with but mainly because he breathes really heavily. It’s disgusting.

He struggles to stay relevant and only ends up appealing to TERFS and far right sorts. What I find eternally sad is he lost everything because he went down a rabbit hole of disinformation. He lost his marriage and everything. I do wonder what was the trigger point for his ridiculous opinions

Firstly Rogan isn’t television secondly Rogan isn’t cool.

I have not been paying much attention to all this, am I correct in saying he essentially holds the same/very similar view to jk Rowling ? As in if you are born a man then sex change surgery doesn’t make you a woman and societal protections woman have should not apply ?

Hmmmm now for what reason would Joe Rogan want to have Graham Linehan on his podcast, I wonder what they’re gonna talk about. Hmmm.

I wonder when it started for Linehan.
I wonder was he angry about the trans issue and went online. Or was he online, waded into something – stuck his neck out too far, and his Ego kept him in it ever since?
As soon as he started digging that was it, he had embarrassed himself and rather than admit that and apologise, he instead set out to convince the internet that it was he in fact who was right.
It’s telling that folks like him and Rowling showcase their bitterness openly. The recent cigar picture / tweet, highlights just how personal and bent out of shape Rowling is. The total destruction of his life and reputation showcases Linehan’s.
He’s gone wildly beyond rational disagreement, because his disagreement isn’t rational. It’s personal.
Pity, Father Ted is peak.

I like him and I enjoyed his book very much. It was a great read.
BRING ON THE DOWNVOTES!!! 😀

Absolute legend. How ridiculous a woman gets punished for having her period and told a man to get out of the woman’s bathroom

It’s so so sad listening to him. I don’t even think he’s a grifter, I really believe he’s just gone nuts and needs help.
My favourite part was where he said something along the lines of “the media spends so much time and energy on this issue when it’s not real”. Pal, you’ve done a podcast for 3 hours where all you talk about is trans people. Oh and how everyone has slighted him.

I suspect he’s always had obtuse views. He just decided in his own head to vocalise them as he thought he was so successful he was beyond reproach.
He’s also doubled down a lot, and I think that has definitely sealed his fate.
From what I can tell, any real visible support from industry people just disappeared because of his outrage and views.

To make matters even worse, he appears to be pro-Israel too

I saw a clip of the podcast where he talks about how he went down the path that he did. Essentially early on he shared a fairly mild article (or tweet?) from a feminist that spoke about women’s rights etc. The trans community took offence and sent comments such wishing he died from cancer (he was battling cancer at the time). He then dig his heels in, refused to apologise and things spiralled from there apparently.
Not that I agree with his views, it seems like he’s devoted his life to a crusade against marginalised people, but the backlash to him for sharing a supposed mild viewpoint on women’s rights (same thing got JK Rowling started apparently) is something that’s never spoken about, no one seems to have told whoever attacks opinions like this that it also isn’t acceptable and in a way they only have themselves to blame.
I know Reddit has serious group think about this but it isn’t as black and white as it seems.

I mean, it’s Joe Rogan. That is EXACTLY the type of person he wants on. To stir some more culture war bullshit and then just put his hands up and say “I’m just asking questions”

Himself and Ian Doherty where on a podcast not so long ago playing besties… Ian Doherty has mentioned numerous times how much they despised each other dating all the back to their Hot Press days which I find absolutely hilarious.
It’s funny how hate brings people together.

He desperately needs help. Unfortunate that the trans derangement syndrome of the UK is beginning to spread to Ireland.
Fuck public spending and better health outcomes and infrastructure, who cares when you can bully the marginalised 0.1% of the country’s population!
I thought he came off as fairly reasonable in this convo. Either I was led to believe something entirely different about the man, or he was telling lies for the entire three hours.
He’s still a prick regardless though.

Oh god that fecking Gobshite. Srill obsessed asf with trans people.

There’s a part I saw where he talks about how all his friends deserted him, but I wonder how many just went, “yea man whatever about the trans things, let’s talk about something else there” and got fed up.
