Aaron Rodgers is what you get when a "smart" person is never taught critical thinking. He may be "skeptical", but what he is not is incredulous. The combination of skeptical and gullible is dangerous. Being able to see that there are systemic forces at play, that you're being lied to by powerful institutions is useless if you don't have the ability to critically evaluate that with real, documentary evidence, and then draw reasonable conclusions.
My grad work was in Latin American history in the 90s. I've seen the declassified diplomatic cables and other documents where the US government gave the go ahead to some truly awful things. For a long time, less educated people would see discussion of that as "conspiracy theory", but it was based in real evidence, not hearsay. I get the frustration of being dismissed as a conspiracy theory, but I also never jumped from the factual what to my own crazy theories about why. The former School of the Americas really did train some of the worst torturers and people with a penchant for genocide to be better and more efficient than that. But the US government didn't do that because "Lizard People want the blood of babies".
Thank you for this comment. I'm so frustrated with Rodgers and those like him believing anytime they don't know something that it must be nefarious puppet masters at work. Or just accepting what one source tells them, evidence be damned. It's like he's wanting to feel like an intellectual without putting in the effort (or just being plain unable to tell truth from fantasy).
Very well said!
Agreed. It's like being in a lab, with all the tools needed for an experiment, having never read any science.
Real conspiracies are pretty simple. They’re linear. Allende was whacked because he took moneys out of somebody’s pocket. The stuff A-Ron believes is plain bat shit. There is no “other side”.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Yes crazy things can and do happen but the claims these conspiracy theorists throw out are extreme and if true would have massive repercussions (like claiming there’s shape shifting lizard people walking among us, or a school shooting was an inside job by the government). So a responsible critically minded person would think very carefully about making such outrageous claims.
'why do we want slaves so badly?' is hilarious
I think Dom's analogy of conspiracy theorists being people with a connect-the-dots drawing but not caring what order they connect 'em in was pretty good.
Dibs on "Ghostface Richard Johnson" as my new band name.
Ghostface Dick… no name can get illah😂👐
Lmk when you're on tour...I'm coming to that show
To be fair to Pablo, "Snikt" is how the comics spell the sound of his claws
But the way Pablo voiced it is definitely not the way anyone else imagined that onomatopoeiazation of the claws popping out.
Maybe you can deep dive into how Green Bay quarterbacks become so problematic post GB
I’m BEGGING JLove to keep it together
Rodgers descent into cringe started long before he left cheese land.
Jordan Love isn’t Caucasian, nut job or stealing funds meant for the underprivileged. Don’t lump him in with those other 2 airheads
Brain frostbite? Conspiracy time!
Can we get these three guys on here everyday? 3 very smart and articulate guys! Brava!
Wolverine Torre Finds Out 😂
Respect Oscar Schmidt bub
I burst into absolute hysterics.
WTF, O!
Wyatt’s show on HBO was so underrated. Dom did not hold back.
Still super jealous that Pablo has a “Problem Areas” t-shirt. Wanted to buy one, but they were all sold out or discontinued on the HBO website.
Aaron Rodgers is smart enough to understand problems but isn't smart enough to figure out the real cause of problems
Aaron Rodgers is smart enough to convince idiots that he's really smart, but not smart enough to actually be smart
Psychedelics can be a useful and/or fun tool. But if not used responsibly they can do legitimate and irreparable damage.
i do psychedelics all the time and trust me, this line of thinking is not their fault
Is it possible that Rodger's has gotten one too many concussion's? That's why he seemed to have this change from a thoughtful person to a conspiracy theorist.
This is actually a good point imo, I hadn't really considered it. I don't know exactly how much he's been hit (hard) compared to other QBs of his era, though he has been playing for many years now.
*searches UA-cam for crow videos*
I think in New Zealand they gave food to crows if they return cigarettes to a certain trash bin….
There was a surgeon in my hometown who had parents let him pick his name when he was a child. That’s why for several years in Springfield, MO you could be operated on by Dr. Loki Skywizard…
This lineup *chef’s kiss!
Academy has developed peer review, citation standards. Journalism has editorial, sourcing and reporting standards. There are minimal standards for current video production.
what is the saying, "a lie can travel across the world while the truth is still getting its shoes on"
it takes a lot to vet ideas, do research (i mean real research not wine mom facebook research), and compose something thoughtful. Not just in academia, but in art. but thats not profitable, right now we live in a 100% content churn era, all that matters is quantity over quality. just keep pumping content, branded appropriately so your followers will consume it, and drop any standards maybe at one point you had. Because the algorithm needs more to consume.
part of me is saying this because I hope Pablo reads this and man this podcast rules but you can slow down if you want, spend time with ur family. More is not better. More is worse. Better is better.
@@dakineprotoss perfect said. Our society is constantly moving social media & infinite stroll is not helping. News cycle that keeps us in heightened urgent lvl.
Wyatt got eem with the "antidote" thing lolol, this is a truly great panel!
Watch Bone Tomahawk, and fine out.
Metal AF. Better if you don’t know what to expect!
D Foxworth's connect-the-dot analogy for the win. They see the connections, but create the wrong picture.
Low key the best share and tell pair.
Dominique has had enough at 44 minutes and I am hear for it.
Crows use cars and traffic lights to their advantage. They put nuts in the street, have the cars crack them, and collect the food when the light turns red. Thanks to Brennan Lee Mulligan for my interest in bird facts. haha.
My friend feeds crows in his backyard and he swears they follow him on the bus sometimes. He built a little "crow bar" for them lol
The last segment was perfect!!!!!!!! Well done!!!!!!!
Dominique saying the quiet part out loud toward the end, good on you sir
I love the show & u guy's Pablo & Dominic,, u guy's are so refreshing,,funny & authentically entertaining.
I hit the Jim crow reference immediately
What a lovely image at the end❤
43:19 I liked Stewart's challenging Cramer. It was cathartic....and the no one else would do it.
Yeah I think Cenac has got some real unresolved issues with Jon Stewart.
This group always deliveries!
Don't forget what Robot means "slave"
To use a word that Pablo probably wishes he said,
Parsimony. what I think so many conspiratorial thinkers lack is the idea that the simplest explanation tends to be the best. Occam’s razor is another term for it.
Your statement would hit harder if you deleted that first sentence
Facts.
I generally do not agree but that does not apply for politics. In politics you are talking about people who are greedy and power hungry. Occams razor does not apply to politics.
Bone Tomahawk has THAT SCENE in it...
I don't know why "Domonique" doesn't address his name change too, his real name was Darnell Foxworthy back when he started on the right time with Bo
I’ve always wanted Pablo Torre to find out if there’s a phenomenon where relatively bright athletes attend prestigious academic institutions (such as, let’s say Duke or Cal Berkeley, just as random examples) on athletic scholarships, but then become highly insecure about their level of intelligence when surrounded by truly genius-level students. So maybe then they choose to deep-dive into “alternative” theories on almost any topic to undermine established academic findings in order to retain their superiority within fields where they are no longer considered elite-level talents worthy of constant praise and distinction. Seems like while surrounded by their colleagues within their current profession, they are constantly being told they are geniuses, whether it’s within their sport or just as knowledgeable or coherent adults, but they can’t stand the idea that they aren’t considered to be geniuses outside their industry when surrounded by actual geniuses in other professions.
I'm still laughing at "would you mind if I cut you"
Murda of crows😂😂
hey everyone! its our little pal Dominic!
Bone Tomahawk Rips
Dominique bringing the truth and fire.
From HOF to walk of shame, generational talent to the 3-play season, formerly thoughtful to WTF, Rodgers' descent is so comprehensive it seems planned
I'm looking forward to Jordan Love's descent in twenty years.
I suspect Aaron's super religious family taught him to respect arbitrary, irrational authority but then he grew to hate them and rejected their focus. He then used the same dull tools they gave him to find a new way in a world filled with ready BS.
@@tedmichI don’t know, if you listen to his brothers podcast I think it’s more likely they grew up in a house that believed in conspiracy theories. It isn’t rare for the super religious to not have a great grasp on real life.
Planned...by a group of people, you say...?
@@imightbebiased9311 pretty sure Rodgers has done this entirely to himself
Funniest pod to date (tied for first with every Katie Nolan/Dan Soder episode).
The return of the "Con of Mammals" by Pablo.
We are all in the same storm, we just have different boats
The analogy(?) I've heard of explaining current Aaron Rodgers is: "This is what happens when you let your high school quarterback date the hippy girl. [He starts doing drugs and then starts getting into conspiracy theories]."
lol watched the video of the robot cleaning bathrooms in a apartment or whatever on twitter 😂
Bone Tomahawk is an awesome Horror film. Whatever that article was saying is ridiculous. If cannibalistic troglodytes is racist, I want to hear from the cannibalistic troglodytes on this issue.
Wow. It's clear that there's some underlying "issues" with Jon Stewart on the part of Wyatt Cenac.
yall just now coming to this conclusion about rodgers?
@PaolofromTOKYO ‘s sons name is Wolverine 😂😂😂
two of my husbands and my secret boyfriend
I wouldn't write off the notion that Aaron could be one of those people who can't fully deal with psychedelics. HIs timeline of thoughtful to asinine does seem to follow his (public) timeline of using psychedelics.
Dang, this is a very good call, I've definitely known people who took too much of something or other and never fully recovered back to normal. Someone else brought up CTE/concussions in this thread, and I think those are definitely possible contributing factors to whatever has been going on here.
Pablo, you gotta do a better job of shouting out Wyatt's show on Max. I've seen him several times on this pod and only learned a few hours ago that he has a show on Max...
Bone Tomahawk has one of the most brutal scenes you will ever see. Quite a worthwhile movie actually. Check it out. By the way, I've watched a few episodes and the theme music was a bit of an ear worm until I realized that it is reminiscent of "White Lines" by Liquid Liquid, which of course was sampled to great financial success and controversy by Grandmaster Flash.
Overton window! Thank you pablo
Logan Torre 😂
Here for Cenac. Could do w/o Foxworth. As much as I love me some Bomani, the fact that he has Foxworth on his pod regularly prevents me from watching. Please dont make the same mistake as Bo. Cenac and Torre are all we need/want
anyone who has actually studied "Egypt" knows that Carlson and Graham Hancock are cooks and grifters. Rodgers has an information processing problem
What about Dr. Robert Schoch
who has demonstrated time and time again The Sphinx has water erosion yet they claim it's sand. How does sand a road vertically when it flies across the sky horizontally?
wrong, you sound propagandized
explain gobekele tepei (spelling), all the structures on Malta that
uf you think the pyramids and sphinx are 4500 +/-, is hilariously wrong
@@scottstyles1986 weird, you still haven't disproven or even refuted how the erosion is vertical
I’m not the problem, I’m just white.
Greatest. Episode. Ever.😅😂🤣
Alright - Sports + Wolverine bit = Subscribe! Let's Find Out...
33:14 Johnny Harris covered why people believe in conspiracies.
One of my fave episodes so far, just flew by, s/o to Domonique for looking like a guy stuck in the longest most boring meeting ever 😅
AR has those wide, shifty, conspiracy-believing eyes
The real question is what *is* "average" intelligence
Universal basic income. 1 grand a week. Domonique is right about the racism. I'm sorry dude.
Dom is on the money.
Dom is so on point today. Read The sum of Us by Heather McGee.
Why does it feel like i am listening at x2 speed when Pablo speaks? I mean he speaks so fast sometimes it makes it lessens the impact of some of his very good points.
People from different regions speak at different speeds just because you can't understand it does it mean it's a problem for everyone
Too much projecting on the rodgers topic...Dan gushed over him every other show for yrs the feelings were not mutual lol
Google Keenan Anderson
PabLogan
Having three smart men dissect the current state of the Rodgers situation is what we needed. A panel of reasoning. And it actually helps show how not EVERYTHING that’s said about him currently is accurate. He is a smart person with a lot of the best intentions in mind. I think it’s hard when he has been exposed to way more knowledge and people with connections about the real things that happen in this world. Not saying some of his takes totally make me feel great but the overwhelming amount of hate he is getting is not warranted. Just people blindly following others without informing themselves.
"Jamie look up cat spy, also I'm a huge douche" - Bro Rogan
school taught us to copy definitions and do work sheets, not develop critical thinking.
Your schools
Maybe your school did that. Or maybe grown adults should stop blaming their own short comings on a very brief educational period in their lives. Maybe grown adults should actively continue their education throughout their whole lives.
In Arron Rogers defense, who hasn't gone on an ayahuasca trip and fell into an Alex Jones rabbit hole?
as someone who supports hallucinogens as a therapy in general, it really frustrates me that some of the most famous proponents of it right now are total lunatics like rodgers and his ilk
its not aya's fault that aaron rodgers and his dummy friends are dummies, and ill just leave it at that
if your claws dont shing we cant be friends
Pyramids being built by aliens being a racist statement is a new one for me.
It's been making the rounds for years. The whole Ancient Aliens show was taken very poorly by the archeology folks of the world.
Well, there ya go. You do know that your lack of intelligence is the exception, and not the norm, right?
Bro, everything is racist. At least that's what the race hustlers/grifters think. What's even funnier is Dominique trying to act like Egyptians are black people lol. I'm pretty sure they would dispute that.
Typical lazy takes on this show
My dude said 100s of 1000s of years of extremely advanced civilizations but that would put us in the ICE AGE. If he's a critical thinker, I don't want to be a critical thinker.
obviously, you are oblivious to the younger Dryas era, numerous structures around the world are being found to be AT LEAST, 20,000 years old, massive structures, had knowledge of astrology and astronomy.
How is the great pyramid of Giza, is so accurate to true north, when, humans were just supposed to be hunter/gatherers.
you are the ignorant one fir not knowing history
Also Cenac seems like he has his mind made up about Rodgers without acknowledging what the other two men in this episode , who both seemed to agree with him at the start of the episode and slowly drifted away from him by the end, have been able to slowly workout. Slight hater energy throughout the episode honestly.
