ROK readers can learn much from the masculine principles of Joe Rogan. The UFC commentator and comedian is successful, down to earth, and constantly learning. His masculine principles of integrity, brotherhood, discipline, and curiosity have brought him fame, glory, and a status limited only by the cosmos.
Joe began his career as a stand up comedian and later landed roles in television sitcoms Hardball and NewsRadio. He continued practicing his disciplines of comedy and martial arts when, in 1997, he started working for the Ultimate Fighting Championship as a commentator. During this time, UFC was looked down upon and not the mainstream success it is today. Thirty years before the Conor McGregor phenomenon, Joe and others helped build the UFC brand from the ground up.
Integrity
For comedians, stealing another comedian’s “bit” or rant is a grave sin that can quickly get a comic ostracized. Rogan has stated:
Great comics don’t steal. They may be influenced by others, especially early in their careers, but the truly great ones pride themselves in being able to craft original thoughts for their audience.
Back in 2007, he confronted notorious joke thief Carlos Mencia while Mencia was performing in a Los Angeles Comedy Club. Rogan sprang up from the crowd onto the stage and confronted Mencia. Shortly after, Rogan was handed a microphone. An emasculated Carlos Mencia stood there like a confused asshole as Rogan berated him with clear evidence that Mencia stole material from other comedians.
“George Lopez didn’t grab you by your fucking neck and slam you against the Laugh Factory Wall for ripping off his shit in your HBO Special?! You fucking liar!”
“Yeah, he did,” replied Mencia in disgrace.
Rogan completely dominated the scene and banished Mencia into oblivion. Mencia has never been the same since. He’s completely fallen off the map, a broken man.
“Your mind is weak. Keep talking shit, fat boy. I’ll keep exposing you,” Rogan wrote in a blog post.
Health and Fitness
When it comes to health and fitness, Rogan does not fuck around. At 50 years old, he maintains a physical regimen that includes martial arts, lifting, yoga, running, jiu-jitsu, archery, and hunting. Rogan eats eggs from his own chickens he raises at his home and devours the meat from his big game hunts.
Rogan routinely freezes his body in frigid temperatures as low as -240 degrees in cryogenic chambers. He also frequents sensory deprivation tanks for deep meditation. Rogan describes the tanks as “the most important tool I’ve ever used for developing my mind, for thinking, for evolving.” For users, the tanks offers a natural psychedelic experiences without the use of drugs.
Rogan’s training is spiritual in nature. “I see martial arts as moving forms of meditation,” he said in an interview with Men’s Fitness. “When you’re sparring or drilling techniques, you can’t think of anything else. All your bullshit goes to the back of your head. Because if it doesn’t, you’re going to get fucked up.”
Human beings still have the same genes they had 10,000 years ago. Our bodies are designed to have a certain amount of physical stress and violence in them. We’re designed to run from jaguars and fight to defend our territory. We’re hardwired with all this shit that you really can’t deny if you want to be a balanced human being.
In 2005, actor Wesley Snipes challenged Rogan to a cage fight. Rogan accepted the challenge and trained hard in jiu-jitsu and other forms of martial arts for the next five months. A financially desperate Wesley Snipes eventually backed out.
“I think when he researched it and found out I’d been doing martial arts my whole life, he realized I was going to choke the shit out of him,” Rogan said, “If I’d fought Wesley Snipes, I was 99.9% convinced all I had to do was grab that guy and choke the fucking life out of him.”
Curiosity
Launched in 2009, The Joe Rogan Experience Podcast is Rogan’s Magnus Opus. His desire to learn and improve as a man are in full display during podcasts with legends like Wim Hof, Alex Jones, and Jordan Peterson. His podcasts with alpha males like Lance Armstrong, Dan Bilzerian, and Jacko Willinc are quality resources for men.
Rogan’s podcast has valuable information for the curious man seeking knowledge. Whether it’s learning about ancient civilizations with Graham Hancock or learning about sacred geometry with Randall Carlson, the show features guests from the full political spectrum as well as various fighters, entertainers, and entrepreneurs. Personally, I’ve learned more from The Joe Rogan Experience podcast than what I learned in a college classroom, by far.
Curiosity has also lead him to experiment with psychedelic drugs. Joe is featured in documentaries The Union (The Business Behind Getting High) and DMT (The Spirit Molecule).
Skill Set / Discipline
Joe Rogan is constantly challenging himself to learn new masculine skills. His has developed expertise in the areas of pool, hunting, archery, martial arts, and cooking.
Obsession fueled discipline and discipline manages that obsession.
[…]
If you’re trying to improve your yoga, I think it will help your jiu-jitsu. Life is about the pursuit of excellence. That pursuit is probably more exciting to me now than ever.
Perhaps Rogan’s most masculine skill other than martial arts is hunting, a discipline not practiced by weak men. “It is a combination of athletics, extreme endurance, hiking, outdoorsmanship, survival skills, the knowledge of hunting, and then you have to be a good shot on top of all that.” During a JRE podcast with Steven Crowder, it was revealed that exchanges DM’s with Donald Trump Jr. about hunting.
The key to Rogan’s success is turning his curiosity into action and willing himself to excellence through discipline. Rogan’s ability to maintain mainstream success as a UFC commentator and an internet shitlord simultaneously have lifted him to legendary status as a podcast pioneer higher primate.
Although Rogan has leftists and beta male comedian cucks in his circle, his compadres mainly consist of 21st Century alpha men. Rogan is universally respected by his brothers because of his integrity, curiosity, and discipline. At the age of 50, he is a living testament to his mantra, “Be the hero of your own movie.”

Yo Roosh, fart on muh dick!!!

Please don’t post that sick horseshit on this site. I move that this be removed immediately.
Yo, dude, I find this stuff sick as well, but seriously, if Roosh takes that post down, I won’t stick around because I HATE CENSORSHIP!!!

The only thing that should EVER be taken down is ch.ild porn, death threats, and do.xxes.

Roosh has the right to do whatever he wants, but if he takes that shit down, he’s just like another Politically Correct SJW cuck.
@ Red Pill Baller,
Fuck of with your high ground. This is fag porn you’re defending. You must be jewish.
“You Must Be Jewish”
Since Jewish men are the ones getting all the chicks in Hollywood and driving around in Mercedes with some blonde chick sucking their penis and control the Fed Reserve and make up 40% of the Fortune 500…WHO’S THE CUCK?
Pajama Boy’s kids won’t be getting beaten by blacks and Mexicans because he cannot afford Private School.
Jews in New Yawk ain’t begging for the jobs “To come back” to Wyoming or Arkansas that were shit-jobs to begin with.
Nor complaining that Mexicans took their minimum wage job.
Jews are paid sky-high figures to talk out their ass and the rest of society listens.
Then they write some script over a bottle of Tequila and some 8-balls of cocaine like Wonder Woman 2 and Anglos go and watch it and by the fucking McDonald’s cup while the Jew sits in his gourmet restaurant eating food at $100 a plate drinking the best wine.
Think he stands behind noisy blacks in a fast food like to get his free “Transformers 5” cup?
It is not Jewish girls running away from molesting Step-Dads in fetid trailers to LA to be a “big actress” that end up having their assholes stretched out by 14 inch black penises.
The Jew Rabbi is not coping with 10 couples a day whose marriage is on the rocks because hubby cannot stop jacking off to old Ron Jeremy on his computer. I doubt that RON watches porn himself. He gets his paycheck and goes up to his house in the Hollywood hills and takes a bath to get the white trailer park whore saliva off his be Hebrew penis and then relaxes.
The Jew is not killing himself with Opiates to kill the pain in his frigid ramshackle house with plastic over the windows and a broken Formica table with mismatching chairs.
He is not pleading for the “jobs to come back” and we do not here of this much from New York or LA.
Whose the cuck.
You love jews like they love satan.
Gen X-Ile
Jewish girls aren’t doing porn huh? Jewish men aren’t molesters huh? Let’s ignore how even as billionaires Jewish men have to rely on their status because women find them disgusting. Women aren’t masturbating to Hymie the investment banker but to Middle American Chad with the muscles and love of football. Jewish men need millions to get laid while the White man just has to show up and announce his presence. You think Adrien Brody would get more right swipes on Tinder than Chris Hemsworth? When was a Jewish man ever a sex symbol? Harrison Ford? Adam Levine? Like that is literally it. Even a fat white guy who looks like a schlub (Blake Shelton) still has more admirers than your average Jewish actor. And when Jews are considered sex symbols they always look not Jewish like Adam Levine (who could pass as Irish).
So keep thinking Jews even with all their money are some sort of sex gods. Their women all do porn and are easy sluts. On top of that they are OK with this in the Jewish culture! This is the DEFINITION of cuck! Who are the women getting “Blacked” on screen most of the time? Jews! The porn industry is Jewish dominated on all sides which is why the women have such hideous faces with their robust Semitic features.
Jews to me are as much victims of their poison as they are perpetrators. Their women are seldom pure. Their culture is largely matriarchal and feminized, and Jews with wives always let her run the show. What the fuck is the point of being so well off when no one respects you? Their women are also notorious mudsharks since they are mostly liberal and feminist. And we all know the stereotype of Ashkenazi Jewish men as being wimpy and whiny pussies. So how “alpha” are Jews, really? Even their own kind disowns them once they are found out to be degenerates (I.e. Harvey Weinstein).
It would be one thing if the filth Jewish Hollywood pushes on “goyim” didn’t have an effect on Jews themselves. But when you realize that Judaism is largely a culture of feminized, matriarchal cucks, you realize that what they desire is for all men to suffer the way they do at the hands of domineering women. Jewish men essentially never stop being controlled by their mothers.
Roosh please delete these photos.
Porn is a jewish weapon, to mess the integrity.
This comment comes from a troll, to show the man in that devilish state, in a website dedicated to manhood.
Oh my, we’re soooo shocked. Trolling are we? Mommy or daddy issues? Did you tell all your friends what you did?
This is certainly nothing I have ever seen. Fags giving it to each other. Wow, soooooo shocking.
How about we do a little public health comment contest RoK readers?
Mine is: “HIV. This is how you get it”.
What kind of woman wants to look at a man voluntarily emasculate himself? You’ve seen fag porn before? You’re quite the sexual deviant there for a supposed straight gal.
LOL. Poor ol’ white BETAS. Joe Rogan is a hero for you now? No wonder your pussy eye fucks me constantly when I am in Midtown on a break or eating lunch. Thanks for the laughs.
BTW, you forgot about the time Joe picked on someone his own size (Mark “The Hammer” Coleman), and got his ass handed to him!!!! He was made to look more of a bitch than Mencia!!!

“LOL. Poor ol’ white BETAS. Joe Rogan is a hero for you now? No wonder your pussy eye fucks me constantly when I am in Midtown on a break or eating lunch. Thanks for the laughs.” Oh, here is the stereotypical nig who thinks all women worship him….most women are probably just wondering why a black dude is constantly staring at them like a creeper. Your obsession with white women is pretty creepy, is that all you have to live for? It almost seems like the obsession of a really insecure black person who ALWAYS has to validate himself by trying to fuck white bitches who are all probably sluts that white dudes threw away a long time ago. It is like all these colored refugees and shit, they hate on white man, but they ARE SO DESPERATE TO GET INTO HIS COUNTRIES. It is almost as if colored people are desperately trying to find their white masters again because once white man left their countries they realized they don’t know shit, and cannot accomplish shit, without white man.
Very true if you look at Zimbabwe and South Africa. In Zimbabwe they killed the white farmers… now they don’t have enough food. In South Africa they handed a former terrorist (Nelson Mandela) a perfectly fine country with running water, electricity, roads, schools and hospitals… and now it’s run to the ground. They even need to power share with the electricity grid because they couldn’t JUST maintain what they were handed. Now the Chinese are stepping in, grabbing all the rare metals for their computer chips, making trillions. It really makes you wonder, Africa is bountiful in rare metals and minerals and diamonds, Africans really don’t have an excuse not to be a rich continent.
@ BlackPwned….There are always going to be a few white women who are into bestiality with primates like yourself.
Black Africans have genetics (X/A ratio) closer to the bonobo ape than to European whites. (from Nature, the International Journal of Science, 28 June 2012).
“No wonder your pussy eye fucks me constantly when I am in Midtown on a break or eating lunch. Thanks for the laughs.”
Rape doesn’t count
Any man that follows trends like tatts/sleeves is really insecure
Nothing says masculinity like paying another man money so that he can ruin your skin with his “art”.
Tattoos have masculine roots. It’s just the women and hipsters that make tats look feminine
And look how manly I am, I just chopped a deer’s head off with my bare hands. Wow !
You would be manlier if you could tell the difference between a deer and an elk.
A beacon of raw burly anglomasculinity? Probably. This raises the question of whether that version of masculinity should be strived for by everyone.
I’m not saying that there’s that much wrong with that, it just seems to me as if these people need constant self-reaffirmation in the form of peacocking and abrasive statements, which does not account for human diversity; it’s almost as if they know that their activities will not necessarily transcend time and bring value outside of satisfying their ego during their lifetime (unlike scientific advancement or great works of art etc.) so they turn on the self-promotion volume and even the article reads like a hardcore internet dating profile. It’s also a reflection of the promotion of narcissism in modern culture, where people are encouraged to see themselves as gods pursuing “excellence” “no matter the cost” and “against all odds” and whatever while life right now is easier than it has ever been. The romanticized old timers probably spent more time hating the necessity of hunting for food or living under primitive governments and tribal warfare. None of these raw masculinity guys want to go back to that; they want to wake up to a fridge full of food that’s been tampered with and the ingredients harvested abroad by people who actually struggle day to day to make ends meet. They don’t believe in God or spirituality higher than becoming a saint in their own frat niche and thus ultimately their lives will reach the same self-prescribed atheist destination of eternal death similar to anyone.
true, they wouldn’t be able to survive a day in the life of the guys who harvest the food that they eat (third world countries beta males ):). We are all the same decaying organic matter, in many ways, paraphrasing Newton’s famous quote, whatever we archieved its because we are standing in the schoulders of the rest of the humanity. Not trying to put down their archiviments, but im sure that if it wasnt for the guys who harvested my eggs i wouldnt be able to do a single fucking push up. To be fair the article mentions brotherhood. Something curious about what you said is that it is almost the Greek ideal of excelense, as far as I know. Arete means excelense in greek, which was linked to the idea of living to the fullest of ones capacities. I was once told that this was what soared the rennassaince, the idea of becoming something fantastic, of doing something extraordinary with one’s life and skills. I dont see a problem with Carpe Diem, but with the fact that 400 years forward in a technological advanced world we are unable to see that there aint no such thing as a real independent adult, we all need other people not only because we cant have all the talents of the world (cooperation is what makes civilization possible) but because without the other one’s die (man cant live of bread alone). I just read a book by a professor of history of Jerusalem called Homo Deus. He says that what let the humanist revolution (which started also in the rennassainse with the works of Petrarch) to thrive was that every pair of hands was useful economically speaking , one of the principal arguments use to defend worker’s and human rights was that humans in free society’s are more productive than their counterparts living in dictarorships. But now as human beings become economical obsolete (expept for few) and our old ideas of free will are dying all this may start to change. The end of the individual as Marshal Mchulan once said.
Degenerate tats covering one’s entire arms. CHECK
Treats SJW radio guests like Abby Martin as friends. CHECK
You know, I appreciate this author identifying himself as a “surfer stoner”. He at least gives us a pre warning that we shouldn’t take him seriously in the slightest.
This article is crap. I don’t follow Joe Rogan but he seems like a man who markets himself to consumerist cucks. Tatted up like a complete loser. Is he really the star of his own action movie or just a guy who gets blown about by the winds of change.
Joe Rogan is like a Dan Bilzerian bro type. Just happens to be rich and pays into fooling people he is better than us in case we were too stupid to figure out his bullshit.
Goes to show that if you want to be considered a badass in LA, you become king of the cucks. Charlie Sheen is another example of these pseudomales
His show is overrated to shit. I find his insight pretty shit tbh, hes basically just another 90’s liberal whos considered “edgy” by normies just because he makes fun of easy targets like third wave feminism.
Or just be your own fucking man. Lift some weights, read books, blow loads in women’s hair. Do what you want to do. Paint, travel, torture stray cats. Whatever. Don’t idolize other mere mortals.
“torture stray cats” is where you lost us.
‘Torture stray cats’
Is that a euphemism for abusing hooker pussy?
HA! Good one. Added to my list.
There’s a special place in hell for people who torture defenseless little animals for fun.
Into the oven you go, degenerate
Joe Rogan has a few admirable aspects about him. He’s selfmade and physically very much in shape. A ‘beacon of raw maculinity’ he is not. The guy is a weedhead who way overestimates his own intelligence. An intellectual midget who regularly is at awe of his incoherent weed induced ramblings.
‘Rogan is also a stepfather to his wife’s daughter from another relationship’ wikipedia
yeah, masculine as fuck
Seth Rogen is the man. He’s a beacon for marginally talented cucks everywhere.
Disagree. No way I’d call him marginally talented. The dude is a comedian who has yet to write a funny joke. There’s no talent in saying, “Fuck” and smoking weed, which is his schitk.
Seth Rogan is the jewish Marlon Brando.
Oh good, thought I was going insane till I saw the comment section.
A real amercian hero that trumps Rogan — Stanhope, Doug Stanhope that is.
I hated him every since x factor or whatever show that was. Then he commented on a toll’s myspace comment saying ‘i’m rich and you’re broke’ and all this shit. These celebs are on the brink of bankruptcy every year as soon as the stop letting the producers fondle them.
With a rented wardrobe, car and watch. And if they can’t sell the proles their brand of bs this year then the party is over.
Thing I dislike about guys such as Joe Rogan and Tim Ferris is that, like celebs they’re trying to make you feel inadequate and want you to vicariously live through their supposed exploits to secure your attention through their career. Their whole shtick is try to emasculate you, “Like eating salmon? You should catch your own salmon, like me. Catch your own salmon? You should smoke your own salmon”. What 9-5 man has the time to master a 70m bull, a 400kg squat, maintain yourself as a carded fighter, spend 5 hours stalking a ten-point buck and writing material for a radio show? Not that I believe for a second the author’s wet dream is such a master of the universe.
One last point (and that’s it’s for I’ve gone on enough and need to sleep), why do they (and we by extension), as men, feel that they must master every one of these masculine pursuits? A couple, yeah pretty masculine, whatever. But all of them?
Reeks of insecurity to me.
Ferriss is a snakeoil salesman. Smart dude who got rich selling bullshit books to idiots living in their moms basement. Fucking parasite. What good has he done to anyone ?
Tim Ferriss, much like Bilzerian, is a spook who was born into old money. His entire career is one big scam meant to pull the wool over pleb eyes and convince them that the “American Dream” is still alive when it is in fact very much fucking dead.
Ferriss went to St. Paul’s. Just take a look at their list of alumni. Ambassadors, politicians, prosecutors, industrialists, billionaires, aristocrats.
It reads like a guest list for that masked orgy in Eyes Wide Shut.
Jack of all trades, master of none. Every time I see someone who does everything, I think to myself “this dude probably is marginally good at each of these things”
Nothing wrong with having a diverse skill set. If you’re a master at your job, or cooking, or whatever, but that’s the only thing you know, you’re probably pretty boring.
This fetish for over specialization is a trait of slaves.
You can actually master more than one skill. You’re just jealous coz you probably wasted ur life working 60 hr weeks mastering some trivial niche skill that gets your boss off under the table.
Joe rogan is a bandwagon cuck. Trying to get another 15 minutes.
He’s been in the spotlight for a little longer than 15 minutes.
No comedian should ever be what masculine men aspire to. Lots of them are dancing monkeys with cynicism from being tortured by stronger people their whole life. Men who stand up on stage and tell jokes to people are basically court jesters. Dance, monkey, dance for these pennies.
Comedians are hardly ever a masculine beacon of anything. Even highly redpilled Patrice O’Neal was raising his slut girlfriend’s child, and that man was about as RP as comedians get. Honestly even if comedians sometimes tell truth, as people they are quite pathetic individuals. Have you ever seen a comedian you actually thought “hey, I wanna be like that guy”? Many of them make EXCELLENT social commentary (Carlin, O’Neal, Burr, etc) but when you look at their lives they are ruled by vices or just overwhelmed by their failures.
Long story short, comedians are not any sort of masculine oasis in the degeneracy that is Hollywood.
Love Patrice, but while he knew how to treat a bitch (fucking Opie included) he allowed another man’s child to stay with him, and he didn’t look after his health- and that was ultimately what made him die young.
I loved Patrice. I wonder what he would say about the current state of affairs between men and women now.
I also wondered why his diabetes couldn’t be controlled. He had access and certainly the means to seek out the best specialists.
His diet was (most likely) shitty
Time to time I will listen to Black Philip or Opie & Anthony and his words about women were so spot on. He knew exactly how the female mind worked. His ideas of getting female attention were appropriate for the time. He was into the “neg” type indirect game. To be honest that type of game works on a limited amount of women (like club girls). But when it came to relationship advice the dude was 100% on point.
However even he admitted that he made a personal decision to commit to his girlfriend and even help raise her kid. People would say he mentally abused her but I didn’t see it that way. It’s not like he was getting a great deal with her, anyway. She was very much post-wall, old, and an industry bitch. He just adapted his game for tie shitty situation and none of the other cucks understood that that was necessary. Patrice knew he would suffer emotional exploitation from her so he was preemptive in how he dealt with her shit. She respected him the more for it since a woman like that understands hard discipline since most men in her life didn’t treat her with discipline and allowed her to run wild.
Patrice was a leader of men and women and he wad a genuinely good person. A gentle giant if you will. But even he admits when he got the shitty end of the stick as he did when he agreed to pseudo wife that whore.
Always LOL @ men who say they “love Patrice”.
Patrice was a hideously obese, obnoxious, belligerent black male.
Let him move in next door and chimp out all day the way he did on that cuck show, shouting non-stop at the top of his lungs over everyone. See how much you’d love him then.
2trice never chimped out nor talked over anyone. Matter of fact he wad always polite and let people have their say. You must not have listened to the same show.
I would rather live next door to Patrice than to some gym bro who likes getting pegged by feminists.
Being a comic isn’t that gay. It’s hard to make a shit ton of money like that. You have to basically have to get to the point where people are willing to pay to get you to tell jokes. The product you are selling is yourself. And if you can get people to pay money to here you talk, you probably worked pretty hard to get there.
Americans think like merchants. You are fully Judaized–honorary jews.
Merchants make money. What’s your point?
Muh shekels lol
Yeah boomers also make money and look just how utterly contemptible and without honor they are.
jews make money too and look at what they’ve done to your country.
To compartmentalize and monetize little aspects of human behavior is such a jewy thing to do. If you were part of a real social continuum then you wouldn’t need to pay some guy to make you laugh.
Rich people think like merchants. Selling things that people want and need. There is a merchant in your country selling stuff to you. If you think merchants are evil, stop buying stuff and go off the grid.
In fact, everyone makes money. If you don’t make money, you’re a bum. That’s like saying jews drinking water ruined america
Yeah no one’s disputing tbe necessity of making money.
What I ridicule about American culture is that distinctly Semitic fixation on money at all costs which you goyim have wilfully subliminated into your psyches.
the results speak for itself, America; that transcontinental walmart of a feminized godless moral cesspit. Enjoy it while it lasts, which won’t be much longer.
I know this guy who is a total badass. He thinks he is totally masculine, but there is not a tattoo on him!
He wrote a lot of important works in his life, including a lot of this little known work of non-fiction called the Declaration of Independence. It’s about 13 colonies who escaped an oppressive government called Niatir Nalgne. He was a mathematician, master surveyor, archaeologist, theologian, and linguist who spoke several languages fluently. I can’t remember his name but this is his picture. He also served two terms as President of the Republic of Nacirema, during which time he grossly lowered the national debt by over a third, something almost unknown in our time. I can’t remember his name, but here is his picture. I think his name start with a J.
One funny story of him, there was this annoying French count, a buffoon, who said that none of the animals in North America were very masculine or worthy of hunting, compared to those in Europe. My buddy sent a bunch of soldiers into New Hampshire and sent this French fuck a moose bull! The Count recanted, so my friend says, and admitted that my buddy was right, the Nacireman colonies have a whole lotta big dogs and other things around.
And yeah, I realized later on that I can’t attach a picture. If you want one, google Thomas Jefferson.
Oh! You were talking about Thomas Jefferson.
The J question must be addressed.
Joe Rogan is a fucking wanker.
This comment section has really gone to shit. You guys are a bunch of fags. It makes you look like a loser when you rip on somebody who is more successful than you.
Yes because being a butthurt fanboy is much more manly
I’m continually shocked at how many so-called “manly” men on this site dislike tattoos. There must not be a lot of Californian’s on ROK, because tattoo’s really aren’t a big deal here.
Californians largely voted Hilary so NO we don’t have a lot of Californians here by that alone. Weren’t Californians the same ones protesting for safe spaces?
If you get a tattoo because you want a picture or symbol on your skin that’s just short-term thinking. If you get it to symbolise something you’ve achieved, e.g. you competed in the Olympics and got the 5 rings, then that’s fine in my book.
I don’t have a tattoo, btw. I also haven’t competed in the Olympics.
Tattoos are supposed to denote toughness. Really, combat vets, bodyguards, ex-cons, gang members and professional fighters are the only people who have any business getting tattoos. All the rest are posers. I laugh at ur [email protected] tattoos. They mean nothing.
Why do you care what people do to their bodies? Does it hurt you or effect your life in any way? No. Caring about what another man does with his life when it in no war effects yours is not an enlightened position. You’re just the same as the left, you don’t know that “zero fucks given” is inner peace. I feel sorry for those of you that spend brain/emotional power in trivial things like someone else’s tattoos. You must live a miserable unsatisfying existence.
If some shit were to go down, he would survive for longer than most. He’s athletic, can defend himself, and kill his own food. That’s more than most men, myself included. He deserves more credit than this. I don’t understand the hate.
he kills his own food?
he killed one dear for an instagram shoot, you fanboy!
But he still killed it.
Should he post every kill? Do you post every kill? Do you hunt? Do you even know how to shoot?
yes.
no.
no(well,used to fishnoodle as a kid).
i’m shooting one out over joe rogan as we speak…
Do you know that? I mean it is a little gay he posted it and definitely less manly than just enjoying the hunt for himself, but that is how he makes his money. And maybe he does that shit all the time. By the way, it’s a fucking elk. Everyone is calling it a deer, but it’s an elk, or was an elk anyway. Before it lost its head.
A man used to living a life of comfort and doing things in highly controlled environments has survival skills.
Gotcha chief.
And? Is he suppose to live in a hut or something? Does being rich make his skills invalid for some reson? Would being homeless make his skills more valid?
The fact that you post this comment means you most likely live in the comfort of a first world country. Are you less of a man?
Wow, the must be the manliest collection of men in mandom here in the comments section. Being so manly that you have the altitude to shit all over Rogan must be amazing. I wish I was as manly as you guys. You cunts sound exactly like the far left when they’re virtue signaling. Just different subject matter. Same end result though. A “look how pure I am” circle jerk.
Or we just don’t idolise false idols.
You don’t have to idolize someone to respect them.
Lol Americans and their genetic fallacies.
I could be an autistic virgin in a wheelchair munching Doritos in my mother’s basement and covered in semen stains, and yet none of that would invalidate an argument against joe rogan.
Focus on the argument, not the person making it. Only women bring personality and feels into an argument.
I’m not impressed by Joe Rogan. His weed-induced epiphanies which he marvels at with “wow dude, just wow” are quite pedestrian observations to many of us. I don’t get the hype. He seems to bill himself as a super enlightened dude when really he’s nothing special.
And I’m also not impressed by some guy who thinks shooting an elk makes him more masculine than thou. Like wow dude, virtually any able-bodied man can hunt an elk; it’s not brain surgery. Am I supposed to be impressed?
“Bu, bu, but he coukd kick yer ass in a fight! Checkmate!”
Lol! That pic with above with mark coleman says it all.
Technically, any able bodied man can do brain surgery, but most don’t. There’s a reason why some activities are more impressive than others. By your logic, brain surgery shouldn’t impress you either. So why is brain surgery impressive to you?
Actually no, brain surgery requires astounding levels of intellect and mental endurance only a tiny minority of men are capable of expressing.
Hunting requires only an able body and average, even below average, intelligence.
It was silly of you to equivocate the two.
He doesn’t bill himself as anything. You’re the one foisting that upon him. He will be the first to tell you that he is not particularly intelligent or enlightened.
Roosh, you MUST sort out your commenting system. I believe that the present format is going to cost you your readership. The lifeblood of ROK and the manosphere is our participation and communication.
Unfortunately Rogan still repeats SJW/egalitarian platitudes on his show.
Anyone who isn’t getting banned from time to time is merely tolerated, or controlled opposition, knowingly or unknowingly.
Meh, Joe Rogan is a self made man, knows martial arts, likes to hunt…so he is probably alright to hang out with. However, he is also a pothead who thinks he is 100 times smarter than he really is, and he seems like one of those guys who enjoys just talking shit a little to much. Beacon of masculinity, no, but an alright dude, sure.
meh. Rogan mos’ likely a closet fag. His constant gay tweening and overposturing makes him suspect. Also fuck this guy’s once in a century crap with regards to ROnda Rousey and his constant chirping about legkicks. He also sells snake oil on the side.
A lot of toxicity in the comments.
Joe Rogan is a legend and deserves respect, plain and simple, but haters gonna hate.
Legend or not, he’s a guy who has accomplished way more than the average Joe.
I’m astounded about many of the commenters as well.
Look, I agree, Rogan is a stud. But I think we’re seeing conflicting views because Rogan, ultimately, is person who is more of a pathway than a destination. I love some of his stuff, but, other time find myself not really hating what he says but kind of cringing. That’s because Rogan tries to be middle of the road and play himself as a moderate. He’s like how the Libratarians came to the surface as the new conservative movement took shape. He can run and hide behind his libratarian philosophy whenever a hot issue comes up. To many here that’s cowardly, and it is. But, sadly it’s also practical, as he can avoid leftist witch hunts. Ideally we need a Rogan type that is courageous enough to tell the pc leftist to fuck themselves. Rogan can do it, but he thinks he has too much to loose. Ergo, selfish. To his credit, society hasn’t pivoted enough back to the right for the conditions to be optimal. Give him a few years and let conditions correct more and I can see him cracking fag jokes on air. Right now, he wouldn’t dare.
You see, he’s someone who helped turn the tiller towards the right. Can’t expect one persons to do it all at once. Heck, Trump is someone who is steering us rightward too.
Finally a sensible comment about the good and bad of Rogan. He is a man, not to be hated or idolized, just a man that you can choose to admire, or not, emulate or not, support or not. Yours is a true account of his strengths and weaknesses. As opposed to many other comments determining he is a pussy purely because he has tattoos or something like that. Or that he is great, like the article states.
I agree that Joe Rogan seems to have a good mixture of masculine and feminine energy so to say.
But same time he’s raising another man’s kid…
I am trying to start WALKING 30 minutes a day to shape up my fat ass. I used to target shoot, but never killed a deer. Fuck it, he’s much more manly than my fat ass. So what he got his ass beat? Big deal.
Sounds like someone wants to fuck and suck Joe rogan
Your comment screams projection. Good luck!
Return of kings has really gone downhill.
Where did all the former commenters go? Englishbob, GhostofJefferson etc? The comment section isn’t what it used to be…
Isn’t it obvious? Thanks to Discucks, were stuck with a very inconvenient late 90’s style message board which makes it a chore to keep track of responses.
Good riddance to most of those phags. A lot of the obsessive commenters were pussies and liars.
Besides, UFC is just bread and circus for the goyims. Anyone who obsess over it is degenerate. Real heroes fought WW1 & WW2. These were the last tough guys, period.
What was heroic by fighting alongside the Bolsheviks?
The Wehrmacht and especially the SS was the last time White Men had any honor.
Since then we’ve just been a bunch of goyim in service to the jew.
You got that right brother. The only reason why we have fake masculinity, cuck slave morality, women who has destroyed themselves and why Western nation has turned into Africa and the Middle East is because the wrong side won the war. The men you mention was the real last nobles and warrior poets. We should look up to them instead of potheads.
not much honour in civilian massacres and concetration camps
not to mention that most of them were sexual deviants
Rogan is good. Is he a benchmark example of masculinity? He’s good for now but not ideal. Rogan represents how society is gravitating back to normalcy…he’s a step in that direction. Kind of like how Elam and avfm was, for all its leftist bullshit, a small step to steer the bow of society in the other direction. At least men started to acknowledge the bullshit and talk. Now, Rogan doesn’t deserve to be compared to avfm, but, he is nonetheless NOT an ideal mouth piece for Neomasculinity, but, he’s getting people to think in ways that will lead them to red pill. That said, I can only listen to so much of him. He views being “moderate” as the middle of leftist versus right debates. Truth is that his “middle” is still very far left and, worse, these are fabricated debates brought on by the left, hence, he’s playing into the hands of leftists. An example of his “middle road” kind of position – during the spacey sex abuse revealation one of his co-hosts said “and this will give people reason to conflate homosexuality with pedophilia”. At least Rogan didn’t say it, but he tacitly agrees. And that’s his problem, he still buys the leftist side too much, in this case, that being homo is okay and natural. Whereas, a more mature red pilled individual knows homo was pushed onto society and that the connection to pedophilia is all to real. So Rogan is part of a pathway but certainly not a destination. He’s also a little to arrogant for my taste and his stoned monkey theory is too new agey/hipsteresque for me. But, he’s new media and he red pills people, so, a net positive.
Wow am I glad I don’t regularly read the comments. ROK is great for me but the people commenting have serious mental issues.
Joe is an entertainer. Like all jesters of the court, he can be admired for his ability to survive – and even thrive, well beyond the lifespan of his ilk, but we should always remember that he is selling us something and we cannot know his true nature by merely consuming his products.
He demonstrates many skills that should be admired, some even emulated – but we do not know his true character. We know his image, his brand, and his products. He has found his niche, his market, and has mined it with great skill.
Masculinity is an essential component of his brand. He is keenly aware that his livelihood depends on pounding this masculine image into the aspirational egos of his customers.
It works. Partly because the vast majority of court jesters are flabby bitches that want you to wallow in the estrogen with them. So he stands out. To his credit, he also *seems* to live a lot of what he sells. This congruence also stands out. It strengthens his brand, his credibility, and authenticity.
It is a tenuous thing, to admire character that what we cannot know. But we can still admire the work that he does. He has built a tidy little empire doing what he enjoys doing. That is something to be admired.
In doing so, however, he has also – consciously or not, decided to subordinate principals for market appeal. This is something we all must weigh when entering the marketplace.
He knows his market and he’s an LA-based entertainer. So he is going to be shifty, malleable, and when in doubt, left-leaning; he will put his guests on a pedestal and only challenge them within the confines of what he as already established to be “safe” areas.
One day he is a bow-hunting meat-eating ju-jitsu gym-rat, the next he is cupping the balls of a marxist man-bun professor who openly hates white men and who thinks telling 7 year-old girls that they are killing the polar bears is a great way to raise awareness about climate change. That’s just the business he is in.
Meanwhile he’s basically and actor/comedian so he knows who butters his bread. Thus, muh Trump is an idiot, diversity is great!, and other progressive idols are ALWAYS paid their due.
To his credit he walks a very effective purple-pill line that is proving to be a lucrative way to have broad market appeal while also having the kind of masculine appeal that is very rare. As a conversationalist, this is very hard to do. He is probably smarter than we think or he is a perfect case of that natural, dim-but-curious, raw fortitude that doesn’t get too distracted by the big-T truth piercing his comfortable middle-of-the-road tolerant modern man meets paleo man image- or get trapped into those pesky, self-limiting principals.
Again, we don’t know him, so there is more than meets the eye either way. But his image is slippery to me.
I trust him like I trust those men who I might train with down at the gym but are attached to leftist femcunt women. The ones who think its cute or funny that their votes “cancel each other out” or some shit. All that masculine energy goes into the facade but stops short of actually instructing their life where it matters, in living the harsh truth (and beauty) that naturally accompanies it.
Something is “off”. But then I am kind of a hardliner when it comes to character. I’d rather respect a man for living his beliefs that I disagree with than like a man that I do not know what he actually believes. Unprincipled males trigger something in me that makes me think they should be culled before they infect anyone else.
Long comment, but I gave it a chance because of your user name.
Your description not only nails Joe, but it describes a whole new breed of e-celebs that include Jones, Therno, PJW, and a bunch of other kosher eunuchs who peddle milquetoast civcuckery. It seems their primary role is to defend The Tribe from scrutiny, acting as gatekeepers to siphon off those young males who may be on the path to being red pilled. This is why they receive positive publicity and mountains of e-sheckels. They deserve nothing less than scorn, mockery, and derision.
On a side note, the ability to downvote comments is sublime. I forgot how much I missed it after Disqus punked out.
Joe is doing what it takes to succeed in the LA market. That is just being only lightly controversial and just parroting what is popular on both sides.
We have come to a very low point in our country where just working out and practicing MMA brands you as hypermasculine. We ignore things like personal character. Truth be told Joe seems like a cool guy to hang out with as he appeals to my inner bro. But aside from that, he probably would be less annoying if he wasn’t such a virtue signaling cuck. Furthermore being PC never made anyone funny. PC comedians only work when they stay on subjects that don’t need to be cleaned up. Jim Gaffigan is super clean but his subject matter doesn’t demand behind held to the scrutiny of political correctness (he talks about food a lot). One thing is being a clean comedian and the other is being a virtue signaling SJW. The latter have no business being in comedy.
My beef with him isn’t that he does MMA, works out, has tattoos, or smokes weed. I really couldn’t give a shit about those aspects of him that don’t affect me. It’s his faggy message that really irritates me and how he manages to interject SJW garbage in his faux red pill theology. He didn’t sell out men by being physically weak or being a pussy. He did so by letting the PC garbage define him and that is why I have a problem with him. If that wasn’t there he would be an alright guy.
Damn, write a book. You got skills.
Maybe in like 2009 he was masculine. After getting redpilled, I find it pretty irritating listening to his pro egalitarian and anti religion bs.
Just cause hes fit and knows martial arts, doesn’t mean shit. I’ve known a lot of simps who were aesthetic as fuck, and he fits that bill perfectly by raising another man’s kid lmaoo.
This. You worded it more succinctly than I but you are right. This is the state of affairs nowadays. Work out, hunt, be involved in MMA and you are a god amongst men. This is also the same culture that will elevate some he-woman as “hot” just for being not fat.
Never forget the 80/20 rule. Since most guys are beta pussies today, they see Joe as a hero, when a few decades ago his lifestyle and insight would have been seen as degenerate by the average man.
Good thing you mentioned women, its also a sad state when “traditional” women like Lauren Southern are praised as goddesses, even though she could care less about nationalism and only hates Islam because it poses a threat to women’s liberation.
I have never heard Lauren Southern speak nor do I want to. I saw a picture oh her and immediately thought to myself she is a smart girl. Smart in that she realizes with her looks she can get a ton of simp Republican White guys to listen to her bullshit. But how many girls who look like her have any business discussing manly subjects like she does? My guess is zero. She should get back to pleasing her master and stop being a loudmouth opining on male subjects she knows nothing about. All someone like her exists to do is just bring simps out of the woodwork.
She probably is a hardcore carousel rider. She will hit the wall soon and she still will have no master to service and tons of simps she will ignore. With her looks it is a shame she spends her time yapping.
I can totally agree with this
He’s controlled opposition, duh. Don’t listen to him or Alex jones
I’m glad I had a traditional Mediterranean father to look up to while growing up, instead of some of these media fabrications. Not impressed in the least by this person or his admirers.
I catch Rogan’s podcast almost every day. He has introduced me to so many interesting and thoughtful people. He is the epitome of the renaissance man so many elites pretend to be.
I’m disappointed in so many of you commenters. Joe Rogan does not fit the perfect Alpha male. He did self cuck, has the anti religion weakness, uses drugs promiscuously and has tatted himself so much it appears he is compensating to appear more fearsome or large than he really is. However, he has always embraced being masculine when it was completely uncool. Even now, he refuses to bow to the “toxic masculinity” shamers and he is in its teeth, Los Angeles. No man is perfect but Joe Rogan stands for manliness in an age that is trying to ban it completely.
Hes a remnant of the Spike TV era of manliness. Sure its nice that hes not a soyboy and promotes a fit and healthy lifestyle. But like one of the troll comments said below, he would oppose most of the views on this site, most likely because he has to let the left frame the narrative in order for him to have a career.
I just see him as a stepping stone for normies or just outdated altogether.
He gives pretty women passes:
Go to 8:25 and watch through 8:45 how he gives this woman a pass for being stupid
In his interview with Sargon, he kept trying to excuse Anita Sarkeesians abusive behavior at vidcon.
If you whiteknight one of the most ardent third wave feminist activists of today, you are a simp.
Joe Rogan would shit on 99% of the drivel that is ROK. Fundamentalist Christian bullshit, bro-science, the pro-Trump circle jerk, the white-nationalist horseshit, the “do this to be alpha”, and the fact that all the articles on here look like they could have been written by a 12 year-old.
Yeah, lets laugh at ROK and follow the man who raises another man’s kid.
Of course he would but what’s your point? You seem like you’d be more at home at the Huffington Post. P.s. We measure in inches here in the US just in case you thought your double digit Mexican dick size of 10 cm was something to brag about
I don’t need to brag about it, while you’re at work your wife/daughter/gf is busting out the tape measure to make sure how much she can fit in her mouth. And it’s in inches because her dumbass doesn’t understand the metric system.
joe rogan beacon of raw mascu.. what the fuck is this faggy bullshit, Roosh?! You owe him some money? How much did you get from selling ROK to Cosmopolitan?
I neither admire, nor despise this man. He is more intelligent than the averagr bro type and has done cool and interesting stuff over the years. He has also earned money and fame. As some commenters point out he is however not too far from mainstream, but I appreciate the interviews with Milo, Jordan Peterson etc.
I’ve watched him on UFC shows as well as the old “Fear Factor” show. Haven’t seen him in a while though. I have to say, he looks like a f-ing FREAK with those hideous tattoos. A real freak.
He’s cool, and does a lot of good things , but I never buy the hyper-masculine act of men who didn’t serve in the military.
As a former Infantryman with a CIB, hunting men is different than shooting helpless bucks who don’t shoot back.
I respect Joe Rogan, but I always take the “manliness” of men who never served when physically able with a grain of salt: defend your tribe. A man who isn’t willing to risk his life for his beliefs or tribe always has a faint aura of cowardice hanging over them.
Are you Joe Rogan’s publicist? Surely you’ve heard of the term “Beta Orbiter”. This is a beta orbiter article of one emasculated man singing the praises of another man. Rather sad to see.
Rogan’s a D List celebrity that isn’t very funny. He should thank Dana White for being bald bros together and giving him that UFC job after his comic career went nowhere. Yeah, the host of Fear Factor. Way to go.
Talking about UFC as if you’re a tough guy, when you’ve never served in the military or put your life on the line in anything is nothing more than being a poser.
great article
Watch this and tell me if hes masculine.
Beta agreeable bitch
“…hunting, a discipline not practiced by weak men. ”
Sorry, I can’t take anything you write seriously when you make statements like this. Weak men, in both morals and physical stature partake in hunting. You’re viewing masculinity under the same veneer the cigarette and alcohol commercials of yore used to sell the image of a “true man”.
Wesley Snipes never challenged Rogan to a fight. This is complete bullshit propagated by Rogan. The real story is Snipes contacted the UFC about doing a fight with Van Damme. When JCVD turned the fight down, Rogan offered to fight Snipes. Snipes had no interest.
The entire idea behind a Snipes/Van Damme fight is that it’s two action movie stars, also know for being martial artists fighting each other. Snipes taking a fight with some D-list comedian/reality show host because Van Damme turned it down is fuckin’ ridiculous.
Rogan then turned Snipes turning the fight down into a big coup for himself and talked about it for years.
