He said that he focuses on simply just having conversations with interesting people and trying to learn from them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe podcast has been accused of spreading dangerous misinformation, specifically about two episodes, a little bit about some other ones, but specifically about two,\u201d Rogan said. \u201cOne with Dr. Peter McCullough and one with Dr. Robert Malone. Dr. Peter McCullough is a cardiologist, and he is the most published physician in his field in history. Dr. Robert Malone owns nine patents on the creation of mRNA vaccine technology and is at least partially responsible for the creation of the technology that led to mRNA vaccines. Both these people are very highly credentialed, very intelligent, very accomplished people and they have an opinion, that\u2019s different from the mainstream narrative. I wanted to hear what their opinion is.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI had them on and because of that, those episodes in particular, those episodes were labeled as being dangerous, they had dangerous misinformation in them,\u201d Rogan continued. \u201cThe problem I have with the term misinformation, especially today is that many of the things that we thought of as misinformation just a short while ago are now accepted as fact, like, for instance, eight months ago, if you said, \u2018if you get vaccinated, you can still catch COVID and you can still spread COVID,\u2019 you\u2019d be removed from social media, they would they would ban you from certain platforms. Now, that\u2019s accepted as fact. If you said, I don\u2019t think cloth masks work, you would be banned from social media. Now that\u2019s openly and repeatedly stated on CNN. If you said I think it\u2019s possible that COVID-19 came from a lab, you\u2019d be banned from many social media platforms \u2013 now that\u2019s on the cover of Newsweek. All of those theories that at one point in time were banned, were openly discussed by those two men that I had on my podcast that had been accused of dangerous misinformation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI do not know if they\u2019re right. I don\u2019t know. Because I\u2019m not a doctor. I\u2019m not a scientist,\u201d Rogan continued. \u201cI\u2019m just a person who sits down and talks to people and has conversations with them. Do I get things wrong? Absolutely. I get things wrong, but I try to correct them. Whenever I get something wrong. I try to correct it because I\u2019m interested in telling the truth. I\u2019m interested in finding out what the truth is. And I\u2019m interested in having interesting conversations with people that have differing opinions. I\u2019m not interested in only talking to people that have one perspective. That\u2019s one of the reasons why I had Sanjay Gupta on, Dr. Sanjay Gupta, who I respect very much, and I really enjoyed our conversation together. He has a different opinion than those men do. I had Dr. Michael Osterholm on at the very beginning of the pandemic, he is on President Biden\u2019s COVID-19 advisory board. I had Dr. Peter Hotez on, who is a vaccine expert. I\u2019m interested in finding out what is correct and I\u2019m also finding out how people come to these conclusions and what the facts are.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rogan said that he agrees with Spotify\u2019s decision to \u201cat the beginning of these controversial podcasts, like specifically ones about COVID, \u2026 put a Disclaimer and say that you should speak with your physician and that these people and the opinions that they express are contrary to the opinions of the consensus of experts, which I think is very important, sure, have that on there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rogan said that moving forward he thinks he could do a better job of having more experts come on his show with different opinions immediately following episodes that are likely to be deemed controversial.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
