Would Fauci Come On the Show? (And Obama's Podcast With Bruce Springsteen)
from #283 - Joe Rogan | The Tim Dillon Show · #283
2 min
Joe says he'd have Fauci on for a full-length conversation, and they riff on a hypothetical where Fauci confesses everything, then mock the boring Obama-Bruce Springsteen podcast as overly scripted and lifeless.
- Tim says he'd have Fauci on 100%, but only for a real long-form podcast, not a quick 20-minute appearance.
- Tim imagines Fauci coming on, getting high, and finally admitting he made money off AIDS and other diseases.
- Obama shut down gain-of-function research in 2014 because he understood the implications—Tim calls him smart for it.
- Obama's podcast with Bruce Springsteen is described as depressing and a bad podcast that needs Tim to spice it up.
- Tim compares himself and the caller to dance instructors on Dancing with the Stars—real podcasters showing amateurs how it's done.
