The Joe Rogan podcast is on national TV now? I thought the whole point of it was that it wasn’t a network show.

The part of it in discussion was, because of its content.

Everything that is recorded and available outside of a narrowly controlled group is effectively national TV, in that if you do something that would be newsworthy, that's where it's going to end up.

Anyone in a PR-sensitive role, including any CEO, ought to be aware of that.

The comment I replied to was edited after I replied. Musk didn’t smoke weed on a national broadcast but I agree he should be aware his actions anywhere could be reported at a national level.

I thought he did it on some evening comedy show. I'm probably wrong about that.
