Just when you thought you had heard the last of the whole Aaron Rodgers vs. Jimmy Kimmel dustup, good ole number 8 of the New York Jets goes and talks to one of his medical advisors on The Joe Rogan Experience.
First, however, Rodgers and Rogan had to discuss COVID for the gazillionth time, bragging to one another about how right they were about everything.
“I was two time MVP during COVID,” Rodgers boasted.
Rogan added, referring to Aaron Rodgers’ doubters, “In the back of their head they know you weren’t nearly as nutty as they thought you were.”
They went on to talk about the “pharmaceutical industrial complex” and how liberals’ ideology shifted to support some of the biggest criminals during the pandemic.
“The very thing that they use to control the media in terms of the news, they use it to control the media in terms of late-night talk shows and monologues as well,” Rogan said. “It’s the same influence because it’s the same sponsors. The same people are spending the same money on the same networks and it has an impact.”
After a good five-and-a-half minutes of patting each other on the back for claiming that they don’t give a f— what people think and having the courage to stand up for what they believe is right despite “certain media members” wanting to shut them down, the discussion finally wound its way to the Jimmy Kimmel controversy.
“He had got on his show and called me a tinfoil-hat-wearing doofus who is talking about the … I thought he had said that I was an idiot for even thinking that there’s a [Jeffrey Epstein] list out there,” Rodgers said, trying to explain how it got started.
He then added, “There was something about a conversation that Pat [McAfee] was having about about this list coming out and were talking about as a distraction to something else, and I and I was referring to the list being, that there being a list and it coming out.
“He might have said, might have been thinking that I was trying to connect a distraction that was going on with a list being released…”
“So when you were saying that he doesn’t want that list to come out, you weren’t saying that he was on that list?” Rogan interjected.
“No!” Rodgers replied.
“See, that was a lot of people, if they saw it out of context…” Rogan continued.
“Nobody watched the f—— clip. That’s why. They just saw a headline and [were like] ‘oh it’s the anti-vax guy again, let’s hammer him,” Rodgers added.
There was then more talk about how Rodgers wished Jimmy Kimmel would have the “same energy” for the actions of Jeffrey Epstein as he had for people who didn’t agree with getting the COVID vaccine.
And on, and on it went. Give it a full listen below.
