Joe Rogan Experience #2162 - Tim Dillon

Joe Rogan and Tim Dillon range across an unstructured, comedic conversation touching on President Biden's apparent cognitive decline and the people running the country around him. They dig into Hollywood's culture of powerful predators, the overturning of Harvey Weinstein's New York conviction, and Kevin Spacey. The talk shifts to escalating war rhetoric with Russia and China, a possible return of the draft, and a feeling of impending global conflict. They close on the unaffordable California housing market, tech-industry ideological capture, conspiracy theories around Boeing whistleblowers and Navalny, and the recurring human conviction that the world is ending.
