This conversation seems very forced so far.

Katt Williams doesn’t respect Rogan as a comedian

It was funny how Rogan started out saying there are only so “many of us” big comics right after Katt Williams said “the world is small…especially if you’re mediocre”

Been watching and they seem too stoned to make much sense of anything.

Rogan’s “murderer’s list” bit about 500 comedians is old. He’s been talking about that for almost a decade. We get it, you’re a modern jester.

I could be wrong but the only other podcast I’ve ever heard Joe be on outside of his own was Tim Pool’s with Michael Malice, Alex Jones, Blair White, and Drew Hernandez

He's been on a bunch of different podcasts. Off the top of my head are Joey Diaz's Church of what's Happening Now, Two Bears One Cave, Ari Shaffir's Skeptic Tank, and Kill Tony all the time (though, it is more of a live show you can listen to as a podcast). There are quite a few others.

It definitely had a different energy to it and they definitely pregamed the weed pretty hard.

This has been interesting as hell because I thought Katt was insane, and now I just think he's a little whacko, but he's not dumb. He had a few moments in there where you realize he's just got a different perspective/angle on things. Interesting dude.

I thought Joe was really trying hard to be as accommodating as possible considering how Katt came at him in that Sharpe podcast. But at the same time he put him on the spot fast with that Newport comment and Katt bit, then realized he was only a few minutes into this thing so you might not want to start by calling the host a racist.

Joe plays a loveable dumbass real well, but he's not making many mistakes so he's obviously thinking about what he says before he says it. With everyone. I got the idea a few times that he was almost toying with Katt towards the end. Like he would take him up to the edge, and he'd ask him something about 'why do you think that?' and Katt would realize he just walked into a trap then Joe would let him up instead of hurting him. Katt knew it.

He may not respect his comedy, but after this he respects his brain. If he didn't, Katt wouldn't have been as reserved as he was. He was being very careful of what he said in this one vs the Shannon Sharpe one. I think because he probably saw this as a dangerous interview to do, but if he didn't do it, then he's a pussy. And he's obviously not.

You could see at the end when Joe said, "We say nice things about you all the time" when he was signing off that he was addressing the Sharpe stuff. Katt just kinda shamefaced grinned and said likewise.

Lots of subtext to this one.

Cool. None of those are on my list, I just didn’t hear much from him usually on others. It’s definitely a friend thing.

Dave Smith, Tim Dillon, and Tim Pool have all said “I can text any time and he’ll answer, but it’s not like, I get to call in favors.”

started out like I knew I wasnt going to last 10 minutes. Now 90 min in and it's kind of interesting. Katt is a different guy, for sure. But he seems to have his own opinion on almost every topic. I can respect that. He will sound like hes completely lost his mind one minute and then pull through with a fresh and sane take. Its entertaining

I watched it he is very versed in many subjects while being high as a kite.
He make sense some of it was very open ended. He is an entertaining character and very funny. I don't get the hate he gets.

Katt reminds me of every Prince interview I ever heard...except weirder!!! Or is it he is just high?

It's almost like you have to be high to get what he is talking about.
