Aaron Rodgers and Joe Rogan head-to-head.
00:03
There's definitely going to be some interesting topics covered
00:07
and interesting statements made.
00:09
One of the things that Aaron Rodgers, by the way, you know what he didn't?
00:12
When you say head-to-head, though, I think they're both aligned.
00:16
I just meant they're sitting in the studio face-to-face.
00:19
Okay.
00:20
Maybe face-to-face would have been better.
00:22
But one of the things they didn't cover, Joe didn't ask him anything about the wedding ring.
00:27
The marriage, I know!
00:28
That's the thing we wanted to hear about.
00:30
I mean, we wanted to know this, and he talks for three hours.
00:32
He married.
00:33
Jeez.
00:34
Now, they didn't get into it.
00:35
Did he have a ring on, by the way, during this thing?
00:37
I don't know if we get to see his hands at any point,
00:39
because he's just sitting, it's a tight shot in the studio.
00:42
That's what we heard about, three hours on all.
00:45
Maybe he'll lift up his hands in the middle of this clip
00:48
where he is talking about the topic of trans women playing sports.
00:53
We know that this was one of the issues that President Trump wrote into the White House with those ads.
01:00
So, here's what Aaron Rodgers thinks about it.
01:02
If you still want to compete, and you're a woman, you know, you should have to, I mean,
01:08
you should be protected and only have to compete against other actual biological women.
01:13
Period.
01:14
End of discussion.
01:15
It's not bigoted to say that.
01:17
The trans women movement is actually anti-woman.
01:21
100%.
01:21
Especially when it comes to sports, 100%.
01:23
Yeah, that's what I mean, sports.
01:25
You're not seeing trans men dominating anything.
01:30
No.
01:30
It's because there's a biological difference.
01:31
Well, you didn't quite make the point that, I mean, you got his point.
01:35
You get the point.
01:36
I mean, and I'm sure, by the way, it's been to like a three-hour show,
01:39
so I'm sure there was much more.
01:42
Does he lift up his hand at any point?
01:44
I was hoping he would, like, speak with his hands.
01:45
That's kind of what I'm thinking, too.
01:47
That's, it's like, what about asking something Italian?
01:52
Hey, Aaron, if you were Italian, how would you answer this?
01:54
I mean, would you answer like this?
01:56
You know, it's like, we want to see the hand.
01:59
And Joe Rogan is so good.
02:00
He really is.
02:01
I mean, he is such a good conversationalist.
02:04
Right.
02:05
It almost makes me feel like there was some.
02:07
It's not in his wheelhouse, I think.
02:09
Look, I don't think what Aaron Rodgers is saying, by the way,
02:11
he's obviously, he's a controversial person who says a lot of out-there things sometimes,
02:14
but this is not that.
02:15
I mean, this is something that I think you get four out of five people in this country,
02:19
and they are going to agree with Aaron Rodgers and Joe Rogan.
02:23
I think it's absurd that anyone would think that this is a good idea to have a trans woman against women.
02:28
It's dangerous.
02:30
Again, this is an issue that 80% of Americans believe should not happen.
02:34
Yeah, that was a lot of the podcast, honestly.
02:36
We, like you guys talked about, we expected to be talking about his wedding ring and the Pittsburgh Steelers,
02:41
and is he going to retire and all that, but a lot of the podcast was honestly like all of those, I guess.
02:46
Well, hold on.
02:47
Did you guys look at the whole podcast?
02:48
I did.
02:49
I didn't watch all the way through it.
02:50
Did he ever lift his hand?
02:53
Man, you would not believe how many times I tried to scrub through to try to find the video.
02:56
I couldn't find it, man.
02:58
And frankly, if he showed it, he wasn't going to tell Joe about it anyways.
03:02
I'm Josh from Long Island, and honestly, I just don't understand why these straight cis men with podcasts are so obsessed with trans people.
03:10
Like, I'm part of the LGBTQ plus community.
03:12
I have trans people who are close to me in my life, and I don't think about trans issues nearly as much as these people seem to.
03:18
And like you guys said, public opinion is already largely on their side, so I don't get why they have to talk about it 24-7.
03:24
I have a feeling it was a shorter conversation than that, but yeah.
03:32
I have a feeling it was a shorter conversation than that, but yeah.
