Joe Rogan Experience #2173 - Jimmy Dore

Joe Rogan and Jimmy Dore range across MK Ultra and the Manson case, the consolidation of media into six corporations, and the post-debate scramble to replace Joe Biden, whom Dore argues has been in obvious decline for years. Dore makes the case that Democrats and Republicans agree on the worst things (war, censorship, screwing workers) and that establishment narratives around Kyle Rittenhouse, Russiagate, Syria, and Ukraine were propaganda. A long middle section covers Dore's turn toward Carl Jung, dream journaling, archetypes, and entheogenic religious experience after he quit smoking pot. They close on COVID-era media capture, the persecution of dissidents like Assange and Russell Brand, and the decline of comedy greats from drug abuse.
