Is Joe Rogan intelligent?

[PRIDE_DREAM_RIZIN]

Joe Rogan consistantly post humanities imperfections and mistakes on social media. And be it at that he also avoids our politicians, public figures, actors and media giants.

Why is he still representing the voice of mainstream MMA in the USA?

 

[Air Lats]

He's not stupid but he's not a genius, either. I think he's got above average intelligence with superhuman curiosity.

 

[Codpiece]

He's reasonably bright, and he's doing what gets him attention.

Another Joe Rogan bashing thread, did you think this would be original ?

 

[campbecc]

I think he's pretty smart; but he's high a lot of the time.

 

[Air Lats]

He should be more publicity acceptable.

I couldn't disagree more. Status quo can take a long walk off a short pier.

Why do you want him to be more palatable? To sell better or because he threatens you?

 

[D4C]

He's well spoken and he controls his image quite well. No idea about his actual iq.

 

[Irishwhiskey119]

He is extremely intelligent.

 

[JackSchtotll]

not book smart....

Somehow I think he post videos of these obvious frauds to cushion he’s ego and to promote himself as being an intellectual.

I would have more respect if Mr. Rogan competed in any grappling competition, he’s a paper grappler in my view.

I respect your position re competition but I think he's a probably a decent grappler. He's probably a decent striker, too. Not sure how much mixed training he's done but he's not a total bullshitter like so many others.

 

[ninja boot]

listen to his podcast and decide for yourself.

 

[SenseiJim]

This guy i know is completely obsessed with him. He thinks he is insanely smart and insightful and listens to his podcasts religiously. But this said guy is also one of those far out there kind of surfer dudes .. so .. yeah not sure about that haha

That maybe true but imagine any current UFC Champ or contender wasting their time posting videos obvious hoax to get off?

 

[MakeSherdogGreatAgain]

He seems to be pretty intelligent. He rides nuts pretty hard sometimes at the commentating table, which can get annoying, but Joe is ok. He's definitely not stupid.

 

[PRIDE_DREAM_RIZIN]

listen to his podcast and decide for yourself.

I listened to his Podcast with Tom Delonge. And Rogan completely discredited him and in later Podcast.

On Dec 16, Tom Delongs story was validated by the US Pentagon and New York Times.

For years, Rogan's been having lengthy conversations with various intelligent people, across numerous fields of study. He's bound to have picked something up.

I don't think he's intelligent in terms of critical thinking but I'd say he has higher than average social intelligence. He can definitely control a conversation. There are different types of intelligence, he's successful for a reason.

I don’t find him to be intelligent. I can see how dumb people might find him intelligent though.

Exactly. He's a very intelligent guy. He isn't afraid to admit his deficiencies. He is willing to learn and tries his best. It isn't popular to say this on Sherdog, but he is a fascinating guy.
