Earlier in the week, on my SiriusXM show I discussed the controversy over Joe Rogan’s Covid vaccine misinformation and his platform, Spotify, facing the actions of artists taking their music off the platform in protest.
I also focused in on the latest fake cure being promoted by anti-vaxxers: A tea made from pine needles, which, miraculously, was supposedly proved effective back in 2011, according to it’s backer — long before Covid-19.
Don’t even ask. You can watch this video in which the Christian Broadcasting Network’s David Brody interviews a purveyor of this new conspiracy, which like all anti-vax conspiracies, is dangerous because it prevents people from getting vaccinated.

Shortly after my discussion, Steve from Utah called my program to say that Joe Biden and Rachel Maddow have peddled “misinformation” for saying the vaccines will protect you against Covid-19 and from transmitting it to others — apparently because there are breakthrough cases and thus they were supposedly not telling the truth.
I asked, If I tell you to take two aspirin for your headache is that a guarantee that your headache will go away?
No, of course, not. But quite likely, and much more probable than if you didn’t take aspirin. He couldn’t really answer questions about how the vaccines are 85% and 90% effective but that means, yes, there will be breakthroughs.And even if there are, those people are less likely to go to the hospital, per all the studies we now have.
The conversation devolved into idiocy, as it does with these people, to the point where I asked him if he was taking animal urine — another conspiracy cure — and drinking the pine needle tea.
He then accused me of “gaslighting.” LOL.
Listen in and let me know your thoughts!
Anti-vaxxer tries to show Joe Rogan is as accurate as Joe Biden
The whole program yesterday was enlightening. From your extremely accurate opening monologue to Mark Joseph Stern’s dire predictions about prosecuting the Trump mob.
I’m going to lay out the reality of all this craziness in very stark terms. The Left, the Liberals, the Progressives must ‘CRUSH’ this movement, cult, republicans. This is the only way Democrats will survive. As one can readily see their objective is to destroy, crush us. This is how they are playing. This whole faction or movement must go in the trash bin of history. Maybe from the ashes something sensible will rise. For now that has got to be our focus.
‘Crush’ in all its forms and however you want to define it.
Who’s it going to be, you or them?
I wonder if any of these people were in an accident or have been diagnosed with a disease & need surgery, would they want Joe Rogan to treat them? If so, why are so many unvaxed in ICUs? You can say take Vitamin C because it helps your immune system. Does that mean you'll never ever get sick? You handled this quite well. I'd never be as nice.
