    I have a coworker like this. He’s always been a big fan of Joe Rogan, which was simply a harmless hobby five years ago, but now means that he gets sucked into some very dangerous ideas. He’s a great guy to work with though.

      I had an old coworker try and convince me I didn’t need high blood pressure meds because of Rogan. “You just need to exercise and take vitamins”. Yea. I’m going to listen to a podcaster more than my personal doctor that has examined me sixteen million times.

      They aren’t wrong that these things can help. But there are other people just prone to things and need extra assistance.
