During a recent podcast of “The Joe Rogan Experience,” host Joe Rogan shredded liberal comedian Jimmy Kimmel as he explained how wokeness is the death of comedy.
“The problem with that kind of stuff is it continues to go in the same direction where more and more things become forbidden and toxic,” Rogan said. “To the point where, you know, the Elon Musk joking around about my pronouns are ‘prosecute/Fauci,’ Jimmy Kimmel made a tweet back to him, he said, ‘your pronouns are a**/hole,’ which is pretty funny.”
“And so then I read that and there’s people saying, ‘Please don’t joke about pronouns. It’s transphobic to joke about pronouns,’” he added. “So they were chiding him for participating in a joke about pronouns. … Yes, so they were upset at him, even though he was attacking the appropriate person, he was doing it in a manner which is also construed as being transphobic. Like, they were talking, they were saying that his tweet is transphobic.”
Rogan then mentioned Kimmel’s past on “The Man Show,” saying, “I mean, he’s done some pretty outrageous s*** back in the day, you know, for hehes and hahas.”
“He’s had a real problem with Elon from the beginning of this, but it’s like he’s in this leftist thought bubble, he’s in the most leftist thought bubble available, which is Hollywood,” Rogan said. “And, you know, I think also, you know, he famously, there’s some videos of him in blackface and those came out and he had apologized for them. And I think he took that hit and like really doubled down the other direction.”

JOE ROGAN, PODCAST HOST: The problem with that kind of stuff is it continues to go in the same direction where more and more things become forbidden and toxic. To the point where, you know, the Elon Musk joking around about my pronouns are “prosecute/Fauci,” Jimmy Kimmel made a tweet back to him, he said, “your pronouns are ‘a**/hole,’” which is pretty funny. … And so then I read that, and there’s people saying, “Please don’t joke about pronouns. It’s transphobic to joke about pronouns.” So they were chiding him for participating in a joke about pronouns. … Yes, so they were upset at him, even though he was attacking the appropriate person, he was doing it in a manner which is also construed as being transphobic. Like, they were talking, they were saying that his tweet is transphobic.
GUEST: Do you that was, in that case, do you think that’s him or a writer — or can you tell?
ROGAN: Jimmy Kimmel? No, it’s him. For sure. Definitely. He’s a comic. I mean, he used to host “The Man Show,” I mean he’s done some pretty outrageous s*** back in the day, you know, for hehes and hahas. … He’s had a real problem with Elon from the beginning of this, but it’s like he’s in this leftist thought bubble, he’s in the most leftist thought bubble available, which is Hollywood. And, you know, I think also, you know, he famously, there’s some videos of him in blackface and those came out, and he had apologized for them. And I think he took that hit and like really doubled down the other direction. I mean, that’s just speculation. But he, you know, now is a guy that goes after people like Elon Musk, which is, you know, he’s, Elon is thought of as being, because he’s willing to put people on [Twitter] with uncomfortable opinions. And he’s, he’s like, releasing people that were banned from Twitter because of things that they had said, he’s like, as long as you haven’t done anything illegal, I’ll let you back on.
