Joe Rogan Experience #2106 - Kid Rock

Kid Rock joins Joe Rogan for a wide-ranging, heavily political conversation that opens with drug culture and the opioid crisis before pivoting to the Bud Light boycott Kid Rock came to symbolize after machine-gunning cases of the beer. He recounts becoming friends with Anheuser-Busch executives and declining a corporate deal to stay uncancellable. The pair cover transgender athletes, election integrity, the national debt, media bias, and Trump at length. Lighter segments touch on Kid Rock's gold-everything mansion, helicopters and plane crashes, hunting elk vs. whitetail, the Cybertruck and Tesla Plaid, and a closing riff on Jesus, aliens, and Sam Kinison.
