10 Joe Rogan Experience Guests That Didn't Live Up To Expectations
10. Wiz Khalifa #1306
Yeah, yup. (∞)
Though it may not seem so at first glance, Joe Rogan and Wiz Khalifa actually have a lot in common. Both men are outspoken activists for the legalisation of Marijuana, both live in California, and both are big proponents of training and watching mixed martial arts.
Sounds like the perfect guest for the podcast then right?
Well, the problem is a podcast is a lot like a dance: to be truly successful it really relies on both participants playing their part to make a cohesive whole.
This episode, while interesting in parts, contains a lot of Rogan being forced to carry the conversation pretty much on his own rather than a true two-way discussion.
This is likely due to Khalifa having become accustomed to the traditional interview format where the host has a series of pre-written questions and the guest having less of an obligation to take the conversation into different places.
These two clearly get along, and Wiz seems like a really down to earth guy despite his success, but it's clear that the episode suffered from a lack of things to talk about and that a shorter format would've benefitted the finished product.
