That’s a delicacy in some countries. I read it.

In a book.

As Bill Hicks would have said, there's a good dollar in it.

Aren’t they the same

Yeah but I’m smart enough to make up my own mind. The reason I mentioned Murray was because you posted an article about Rogan saying that falling civilisations are obsessed with gender and I just responded that that’s what Murray told him. I’m smart enough to know that’s not why civilisations have collapsed in the past. It wasn’t even the point Murray was making, he said it’s something they all have in common.

Historically speaking the main reason civilisations have fallen has mostly been due to climate change. Not all obviously, like Rome for example but they did prosper coincidentally or not during a period of good weather for farming.

Ah fair enough, my misunderstanding. Apologies.

Still better than balut

Still better than balut

I’d rather eat balut than watch someone throw up or be in the presence of it

My wife is the same. She has a real fear of it and I’m pretty sure she’s passing it on to the kids. That and an overreaction to the sight of blood.

Like I especially when someone is like “I feel sick” I nope right the **** out I don’t wanna stick around. It messes with my head

No worries.

I know that I’ve come across as a massive Rogan fan boy, I do enjoy the show, but I just started listening to podcasts and audiobooks when I started working on my own about 70% of the time around 7 years ago. Before that I was just working on site with a crew and we just had a radio going.

Now that I work on my own I always have an earphone on one ear. I prefer history but I have listened to most, the history of Rome, Tides of history, Emperors of Rome, The history of Byzantium, obviously Hardcore History, few others as well. I’ve almost finished the fall of civilisations that tectonic pointed out the other day…but I need to break it up with stuff like The Tim Dillon podcast, JRE, Flagrant 2 and the odd true crime pod, the dollop can be fun but it’s become way too political so it’s turned me off a bit.

Annnyyywayyy I do like Rogan and barely miss an episode so I know when he’s being misrepresented and unfairly treated so I’ll speak up if that’s happening, and it’s happening right now. The thing is, when you listen to someone have conversations around 12 hours a week over a number of years you get to understand that person a bit.

Dude looked like the Tiger king in disguise.

That stuff about his wife was wild tho.

Rogan seemed to really glossed over his wife stuff, was only 3 years ago i think he said, brutal.

No worries.

crazy how many podcasts and books you consume when listening to stuff at work.

Rogan has introduced me to a plethora or other podcasts and books. The fact is within the 3 hours he's only really scratching the surface, the irony that people think a 3 min sound bite is enough to write him off! He's really only a introduction into the field/topic and that's why he says he's a meathead, because compared to Dr Andrew Huberman, Lex Friedman, Dr Peter Attia's etc. his podcast is [insert topic] for dummies.....of course i wouldn't know about these geniuses without Rogan introducing them to me.

 

[goalieboy82]

In fairness to Mcarcherey he's posting around 23.7 posts per month on BF vs. Your 561.1

If we're looking at that in isolation he has 23.7 times more of a life than you. No judgement of course.

I listened to empire of the Summer moon because he kept going on about it. Highly recommend it.

Imagine if someone only saw this clip. Completely different opinion

What's that absolute ****in' banger, maybe 25-30 years old, think it was a one-hit wonder, singer is black American woman (slight chance could be UK) goes by one name, possibly beginning with A? Starts with a drum beat, could be tom-toms, I think in the film clip at the start it's just the drummer, then the singer and dancers come out? Maybe it has the word "one" in the title?

Serious case of tip-of-the-tongue'itis, except with the melody and lyrics.

Total banger.

That's it!!!! Thank you so much!

Total banger.

AI will never replace humans. Copy and pasted my post into google, got me nowhere.

 

[Makeshift Park]

Ha, take that Big Tech! You gave me surplus information too. I would have gotten it with just "absolute ****ing banger" + "about 25 years ago" + "black american woman" + "1 in the title".
