Joe Rogan Experience #2125 - Kurt Metzger

Kurt Metzger joins Joe Rogan for a sprawling, profane conversation that ranges from the Israel-Gaza war and media coverage to the perceived collapse of 'woke' ideology. They argue that institutions lie constantly, dissecting topics like trans athletes in women's sports, vaccine skepticism, and corporate DEI scores as a form of social control. The pair dive deep into conspiracy territory, including Antarctica's IceCube neutrino detector as an alleged directed-energy weapon, UFOs, JFK, P. Diddy, and the rumor that France's first lady is trans. Throughout, Metzger frames society as a many-leveled scam held together by secrets and incentives, while Rogan pushes back on specifics and emphasizes intent.
