>Explicitly what's wrong with listening to Joe Rogan?
Ehh, he's not particularly awful himself. It's just that his show serves as the entry way to the crazy funnel (Jones, Peterson, Tate, et. al.) for impressionable young men, which then leads to things like climate change denial and other (worse) conspiracy theories taking root.
Mostly it's just an indicator of poor critical thinking skills than anything else. Kind of like how it's been shown that the single most reliable indicator someone will believe in a given conspiracy theory is whether they believe any others, even completely unrelated ones.
